Does the Nissan Leaf have a spare tire?

I’m thinking of switching to an electric vehicle, but I heard their huge batteries can take up a lot of space. Does the Nissan Leaf come with a spare tire or not?

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
Electric vehicle batteries might run cleaner, but in their present form, they’re also quite bulky. Unfortunately, even with 23.6 cubic feet of cargo space, the Nissan Leaf doesn’t include a spare tire.
Instead, the Leaf comes with an Emergency Tire Puncture Repair Kit located within a compartment in the cargo area’s left wall. The kit contains a bottle of tire sealant and an air compressor suitable for making temporary repairs. Follow the instructions inside and you should be able to make it to a garage for a permanent fix.

What Others Are Asking

How do you program a GMC garage door opener?
I just bought a new GMC Sierra, and it comes with a garage opener function. My husband and I are constantly losing our garage remote, so I am excited about this feature. Unfortunately, I did not ask the dealer how to use it, and now I don’t know what to do. How do you program a GMC garage door opener?

Why Does Using My Turn Signal Cancel My Cruise Control?
This is so bizarre! For some reason, whenever I use my left turn signal, it shuts off my cruise control. It also doesn’t do it every single time, just like 90% of the time. Why would my left turn signal shut off my cruise control?

How did my car insurance company get the wrong VIN for my car?
I was reviewing my policy and realized that my insurance has had the wrong VIN listed for my vehicle. I've been with the same company for three years! How did this happen? Can I get a refund since my vehicle wasn't actually insured?
