If you're searching for a 2019 Nissan LEAF SL for sale in Novato, CA, this silver hatchback at Active Auto Sales deserves a close look. Priced at just $9,850, it represents one of the most affordable paths to electric vehicle ownership in Marin County — and with a clean title and a solid features list, it's the kind of EV deal that doesn't stay on the lot long.

About This 2019 Nissan LEAF SL Hatchback

This 2019 Nissan LEAF SL (Stock #7816) comes in a clean silver exterior and carries 85,212 miles — entirely normal for an EV of this age, where the drivetrain experiences far less wear than a gasoline engine. With no oil changes, no spark plugs, and no transmission fluid to worry about, the miles tell a different story on an electric vehicle than they would on a conventional car. The LEAF's battery management system and regenerative braking reduce mechanical stress throughout ownership, meaning a well-maintained example like this one remains genuinely capable daily transportation.

2019 Nissan LEAF Performance and Engine

Electric Motor and Driving Experience

Power comes from Nissan's AC electric motor paired with a single-speed fixed-gear transmission driving the front wheels. The 2019 LEAF SL delivers instant torque from a stop — a hallmark of electric driving that makes urban traffic and freeway on-ramps feel effortless. In real-world driving around Novato and the broader Marin County area, the LEAF's range is well-suited to daily commutes into San Rafael, Corte Madera, or across the bridge into San Francisco. Regenerative braking adds an efficiency edge on the winding, hilly roads common throughout Marin.

Nissan LEAF SL Features and Interior

What the SL Trim Includes

The SL is the top trim in the 2019 LEAF lineup, and it shows. This example includes heated power leather seats, a Bose premium sound system, blind spot information system (BLIS), a backup camera, and keyless entry and push-button start. The LEAF's cabin is designed around a modern, driver-focused layout with a large touchscreen infotainment display, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and smart charging scheduling features built directly into the vehicle's software. It's a genuinely well-equipped EV at this price point.

Nissan LEAF Reliability and Ownership

What Owners and Experts Say

The Nissan LEAF has been one of the most studied and data-rich EVs on the road, having launched in 2011 as the world's best-selling electric car. The second-generation 2019 model refined the platform significantly with improved battery chemistry and better thermal management than earlier versions. Owners consistently report low overall maintenance costs — no engine oil, no exhaust system, no clutch or torque converter to replace. The primary long-term consideration for any used LEAF is battery state of health. At this mileage and age, it's worth confirming remaining battery capacity with a quick diagnostic scan, which Active Auto Sales can assist with. Many California-based LEAFs benefit from the mild climate, which is easier on lithium-ion battery longevity compared to extreme heat or cold regions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2019 Nissan LEAF SL a good used EV to buy?

Yes — the 2019 LEAF SL is widely considered one of the better used EV values available. The SL trim includes top-tier features like leather seats, Bose audio, and BLIS, and the second-generation LEAF platform is more refined than its predecessors. At under $10,000, it's a rare combination of EV technology and affordability.

How many miles is too many for a used Nissan LEAF?

Miles matter differently on EVs. The more important metric is battery state of health. A 2019 LEAF with 85,000 miles that has been driven in a mild climate like Northern California and charged conservatively can still offer strong range and reliable daily performance. A battery health check is the best way to assess what remaining capacity looks like.

What does the 2019 Nissan LEAF SL trim include?

The SL is the range-topping trim and includes heated power leather seats, a Bose premium audio system, blind spot warning (BLIS), backup camera, keyless entry and push-button start, and Nissan's ProPILOT Assist on equipped models. It's a significant step above base trim LEAFs in comfort and safety technology.

Can I charge a 2019 Nissan LEAF at home?

Yes. The 2019 LEAF supports both Level 1 (standard 120V household outlet) and Level 2 (240V home charger) charging. A Level 2 home charger installation is recommended for overnight convenience and can typically restore a full charge in 7–8 hours. The LEAF also supports DC fast charging (CHAdeMO standard) at public charging stations.

Is the 2019 Nissan LEAF eligible for any tax credits in California?

As a used EV purchase, this LEAF may qualify for California's Clean Vehicle Rebate Project (CVRP) or other state and utility incentives depending on income eligibility. Federal used EV tax credits introduced under recent legislation may also apply. Consult a tax professional or check the CVRP website for current eligibility guidelines.
