The Leaf was such a big name for a while and then Hyundai and Kia came with better cars and really changed the landscape.

Gamermanh is right. My car forces the engine to run for a few miles every 60-90 days, if I haven't used it recently enough.

For the first few years I owned it i did use a fuel stabilizer, but don't anymore. After hearing from other drivers of my model that it really wasn't necessary due to the sealed fuel system, I decided it wasn't worth the hassle of finding the funnel to add it into the tank.

I go through maybe 2x 14 gal (55L) tanks a year for about 1000 of my average 6500 mi (1800km/10000km)
