We had our 2012 Nissan Leaf with 50 mile range upgraded to a brand new 40 kWh battery pack with EV Rides. They arranged a shipment from Seattle to Portland and back. Everything went smoothly and now have over 170 mile range! We are extremely happy with their customer service; transparent communication and outstanding work!

EV Rides is definitely the place to go if one is wanting a used electric vehicle (EV) that has been reinvigorated by the installation of a new battery. My husband and I happened upon EV Rides after researching the used EV market. We knew it was time to enter the EV world but didn’t know quite what we wanted. We have a reservation for a new Fisker Ocean but know that realistically we will not be getting it until the fall of 2023. We needed a car in the interim. EV Rides offered the perfect solution! Their business philosophy of wanting to curtail planned obsolescence of older EVs by upgrading and updating the batteries is paramount to why we chose EV Rides. There are two reasons why a person might want to dive into the EV world. The first reason is from a purely economical standpoint. Gas prices are always high and they have been for decades! Putting miles and paying for gas on short little trips around town is insane. The second reason would be from an environmental perspective. An EV satisfies both of these reasons. It is more efficient than a gas powered vehicle. Working with Guillermo at EV Rides was excellent. He knows his stuff! I was a little hesitant at first because there is no fancy showroom, but Guillermo’s knowledge and transparency throughout the process reassured my husband and I that we were making the right choice! The 2013 Nissan Leaf that we purchased through EV Rides has been great! It is a lot of fun to zip around town in. It doesn’t look its age and sure doesn’t act like it thanks to Guillermo and the team at EV Rides!

Upgraded 2013 Nissan Leaf a few weeks ago. Friendly and fast service. Overall excellent experience. It's like having a new car with the big increase in range! No more range anxiety! We are still getting use to going a very long way on a few % of the battery! We weren't sure about upgrading going into it and now we are SO happy we did! Thanks EV Rides LLC!

EV rides did the impossible for me. My level 1 and 2 charger was melted due to a faulty charger. Guillermo fit me in last minute, very quickly. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Collin and Anton worked for a few hours on my car, continually troubleshooting and working on it, and with great success did the cheaper and faster (for me) option. EV Rides saved me a $1,500 other bill I would’ve paid at other places. Can’t say enough about this place. Thank you!!!

We drove our son’s Tesla Model 3 while he was at sea w/ Navy, but had to give it up on his return, which started our search for a more affordable EV. Used car prices in NY were crazy, but these OR guys had a reasonably priced, updated, 2018 LEAF on their site with Tesla-like features (40kWh range, assisted steering, heated steering wheel, and a key fob that stays in your pocket). Shipped the car to NY and loved it. After taking delivery, though, battery performance became erratic. EV Rides stood behind the car and replaced battery at no charge. Guillermo was great communicating throughout. We especially love EV Rides’ unique sustainability ethos — extending life of earlier EV models with upgraded battery swaps.

7 months out and still very happy with the results. EVRides had a very quick turnaround, the battery they put in is still performing wonderfully, and they even helped find a truck to get the car to and from them for a good price. I will seriously consider reusing in the future.

I got a car from EV Rides a year ago and it was such a good experience that I decided to go with them again when getting a used Leaf for my daughter. My car from a year ago has been great and I expect this second one will be as well. They are very knowledgeable and they help reduce waste by getting older leafs back on the road.

So happy we made the move to upgrade our battery with EV Rides! My 2015 Leaf had a range of 70 miles per charge now has a range of 240! I have a new car without having to give up the car I have grown to love! And it cost so much less than buying a new car! BEST DECISION EVER!

Anton and Guillermo are consummate professionals. They have been extremely helpful as we navigated the EV options. We purchased a 2011 Nissan Leaf from them a few years ago, and the experience was so good that when it came time to upgrade that car, there was no question where we would be going. If you are considering purchasing an EV, or simply upgrading the battery on your Leaf, I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you EV Rides!

Well its been a year since I got my car battery replaced by EV Rides. I wanted to wait this long because I am extremely cautious in recommending places. I had my 2013 Nissan Leaf battery replaced after the original 24 kw battery degraded down to 3 capacity bars with 110,000 miles on the car. There were no places in Utah that do this kind of work, so I sought our their services. I was extremely nervous to plop down such a chunk if money to a service shop 800 miles away, but I can tell you, it was one the best investments I have ever made. Anton put in a 40 Kw battery and now I am free of range anxiety and can travel all over the place without worry. Even after a year and 14,000 miles later, the car still 12 capacity bars and (in good weather) can go close to 170-180 miles on a full charge.
