Sure enough, if you want to lay your hands on the upcoming Nissan Leaf EV, you better get ready to shell out $32,780 of your hard-earned cash. The good news is, the Leaf qualifies for the largest federal tax credit available - a full $7,500. Once you factor in the bonus cash, the world's newest plug-in will set you back around $25,280. Nissan will start taking reservations for the car on April 20, and the company is also offering lease options starting around $349 per month.

There will be a few other expenses associated with the purchase, the least of which is the $99 reservation fee. Buyers will need to pay an additional $2,200 for the necessary charging station and installation. Uncle Sam will throw another $2,000 tax credit your way for that equipment, though. If everything stays on track, buyers should see their battery-powered purchases arrive by December. Follow the jump for Nissan's official press release in case your interested in being one of the first to buy.

I think it may have out priced itself in the US. Insight, Prius, CR-Z all cost less. Still like the direction of progress though.

not really, this LEAF is at $32,000 + the $2200 for the charging station.. but then you get back $9700...so technically this car is worth about $25,000 roughly

so yeah.

prius is at $32,000 also when it came out, but i dont think govt gives that much back for it. because its not pure electric
