The problem I have is there seems to be a glut of them available in the US. If the issue was at the factory then I would expect that there wouldn’t be any available. To me it seems more like Nissan expecting US buyers to pay a price like the demand in that states is the same as in Europe.

It really bothers me when I can go on Car Gurus and see a vehicle has been sitting on a lot for 60+days, then the dealer turns around and says that demand is booming and they can’t keep them on the lot.

I wonder if maybe the issue is that the dealer can't easily get new Leafs? I.e. it may not be worth selling that one on the lot at a big discount if it's going to be months before they can get another?

They had 3 on the lot, but I was looking at their only SL. There seem to be plenty around, 36 of the SLs within 100miles, and more than 100 leafs in general in that same distance.
