Watched this video of an owner in the UK that states he has experienced neutered fast charging rates in his '18 40 Kwh Leaf after just a couple of quick charges (mind you it is still very cool in the UK). Said that an Ioniq Electric beat his '18 Leaf in a 400 mile road trip by 3 hours (!) due to neutered fast charging. He also said that he would be able to do a 500 mile trip faster in his old Leaf than his new one. Wow. Hopefully no one buying the '18 Leaf plans to take a trip longer than 150 miles. You thought the Bolt's DCFC taper was bad. ;)
