Interestingly, the 2011/2012 models scored 5-stars in the crash test. :?

Wow ratings went down for the Leaf for the 2013 model. Thanks for sharing.

Could be related to some of the changes that were made on it. (I have a 13 SV).. tbh, I actually never look at the crash ratings myself on any car. To me, all it tells me is how much my car is going to cost to fix (meaning it'll crumble more)..

But . . . . it also might mean you're still going to be around to pay to have it fixed - Actually, they'll total it either way, so your insurance will do the paying . . . . but you might still be around to collect
