EDIT: I want to update my originally-1-star review to a 5-star review and say that EV rides PDX made everything right! They took the car back from Seattle (at their expense) made all of the required fixes, and sent the Nissan Leaf back in 100% perfect shape. They even detailed the inside to make it super clean and ready to go. I'll be recommending EV Rides PDX for anyone looking for a very fairly priced EV. My 2016 Nissan Leaf is now in great shape, and I love driving it daily! --- Original review - NOTE: EV Rides has made everything right! They clearly do care about their customers, and that goes a long way. I'll be recommending them to my friends and family. I had a very negative experience with EV Rides PDX. I recently bought a 2016 Nissan Leaf with a 40kwh battery. To start, though, Guillermo is awesome. Super nice guy, really easy to get a car with. The car showed up in dirty condition about 1.5-2 weeks later than it said it would be delivered, with minimal communication for the delivery. And upon receipt of the vehicle, it was discovered by my mechanic that a rodent had chewed through the rear windshield washer line, which is a $2500 job to replace. This means that, when the driver uses the rear windshield washer stalk, windshield washers sprays *inside* the cabin directly on to the passenger. Awesome. The trunk struts were so worn that the trunk would not stay open on its own, and the windshield was so dirty and smeared (with completely worn windshield wipers that were non-functional) that I had trouble driving the car home as it was so hard to see. The car was listed as being in "excellent" condition, to be clear. It also has a bit of a strange smell to it that I'll need to take to the detailing shop. Definitely far from excellent. The new battery they installed is in great condition, however, with a 100% state-of-health on the battery, so it's not all bad. I definitely could have gotten a better and newer used EV for a similar price with all of the repairs considered, however, which is why I am, ultimately, quite disappointed in my experience. I was so excited to get this car, but now I mark it as a loss and am looking to sell it/trade it in as soon as possible. I told all of my friends and family to stay away, and will also be posting in EV communities asking about EV Rides PDX to make sure everyone stays away. To their credit, EV Rides reached out upon seeing this review to resolve the issue, but ultimately, could not offer any solutions that would actually fix the issue. The only things that would fix the issues are: 1. Pay for all repairs that have already been done and have to be done in the future. or 2. Take the car back immediately and refund what they can. They cannot do either, so the issues will not be resolved and the car will be junked ASAP. The thing that is even worse is that now my used EV tax credit is used up on a car that is quite terrible, and I’m finding new issues with it daily.

Give your Leaf an UPGRADE! It only took 2 hours to get my new battery installed. I almost doubled my range instantly! It's more affordable and better for the environment than buying a longer range EV. The process was super easy and Anton was fantastic to work with. Six stars!

These guys are great, and these cars are great. The tax credit worked like a charm, knocked thousands off on the spot. I spent what I’d intended to and got exactly what I wanted.

I felt incredibly well taken care of when purchasing a car here. The experience wasn't at all like that of a typical dealership and while this was quite a major purchase for me, and therefore I was pretty nervous about the whole thing, I ended up feeling more than satisfied. As someone entirely new to the world of EVs, I had all of my questions answered and then some. I found the perfect car that fit my budget and travel needs and couldn't be happier and more thankful to the staff here. From the first phone call through test driving and filling out paperwork, the entire process was smooth. Not to mention, they are simply wonderful people to talk to as well. It is clear that they are truly knowledgeable, honest, and skilled professionals at what they do and to be honest, it would be very difficult to find another dealership with the same level of expertise that these guys have when it comes to the EV world. I'm extremely happy with my new car knowing that they helped me cover all the bases. Don't hesitate to check these guys out when considering an EV, you won't regret it.

I had a 2014 leaf that was in an accident and unfortunately was totaled. A little over 2 years ago I had EVrides install a 62 kw battery in this car. Even though this car was totaled, the 62KW battery was still in good shape. So I had them transfer it to a 2017 Leaf. They got me right in and the complete process took only 3 days. Guillermo keep me udated throughout the process. These guys do great work! There really nice guys, I can’t recommend them enough. Thanks guys
