Why purchasing a Nissan LEAF was Shannon Monroe’s ‘best investment’

The Nissan LEAF changed the way the world looks at EVs. Launching the first mass-market EV in 2010 was a gamble, but thanks to loyal owners and enthusiasts like Shannon Monroe, Nissan was – and remains – committed to EVs. One of the first U.S. LEAF owners, Shannon still owns the LEAF he purchased in 2010. He has since traveled more than 125,000 gasoline-free miles with his family.

The LEAF's unique benefits is what attracted the Monroes to the LEAF. However, its durability, low maintenance needs and not having to pay for gas has kept it as their daily driver. More importantly, they have been able to keep their commitment to a zero-emissions lifestyle.
