This is an all-electric vehicle with a maximum range of approximately 85 miles. Our Nissan Leaf is a great low-budget option for basic transportation during your visit to Kauai, but it has limitations due to its small range. Please don't book it if you plan to drive many miles every day. Please don't book it and give me less than a 5-star rating because it has limited range. It's great for short trips to the beach, restaurants, and excursions. However, if you want to explore the farthest reaches of the island (such as Waimea Canyon and Haena), you may need to stop to recharge the car while having lunch or dinner in order to return to your lodging. However, there are charging stations in convenient locations, so you won't be stranded as long as you plan ahead. Don't hesitate to reach out anytime if you have questions about charging. Driving an all-electric car is a great way to enjoy your visit to the garden island while saving the planet. Kauai’s power grid is nearly 70% powered by renewable energy including solar, hydropower, and biomass. We will provide tips for charging the car on Kauai. If you are concerned about charging an electric car on Kaua’i, note that we will provide tips for utilizing the charging opportunities throughout the island; for starters, please see details in the FAQ. The best resorts for charging an electric car are as follows: - Grand Hyatt - Marriott Waiohai Vacation Club - Kiahuna Plantation Resort If you are staying at a rental house or condo with access to an electrical outlet, we will provide a 50-foot extension cord along with the Leaf's charging cable, which will allow you to keep the Leaf charged enough for your daily driving needs. Airport Delivery Information: Turo operates a shuttle from Lihue Airport to a remote parking lot about 10 minutes away (near Target, Costco, and other shopping options). Please see additional information here: https://help.turo.com/lihue-airport-lih-guests-HyZlVZqi5 The car will be available for you at the Turo parking lot. I will either meet you at the parking lot for check-in, or I'll provide a combination to a lockbox. Please contact me if you have any questions about the airport procedure or have any concerns about the shuttle and its schedule. The Nissan Leaf is a compact car, but it is surprisingly roomy inside. The hatchback provides enough storage for several suitcases, It is a great car for an individual, couple, or family with one child, but would also work for a family of four with carry-on luggage or no more than one or two large checked bags. Or if you opt to have the car delivered to you at a resort or house in Poipu (or pick it up at my house), you won't have to worry about luggage and can just enjoy the car for your day trips. Prior to and during your stay on Kauai, I can provide tips about things to do and where to go on Kauai. Rules: - Please do not take the car off road. - No smoking in or near the vehicle. - Try to avoid parking where the car might get door dings. - No pets. - Do not use spray sunscreen in or near the vehicle. - Avoid transferring sunscreen from bodies to seats or other surfaces. - If the car is left excessively dirty (inside or out), a cleaning fee may be charged. - Do not use any automatic car wash except Sudz.

Charging basics for our Leaf
I'll typically deliver the car with approximately 85 to 90 miles of range (100%). There are many opportunities for you to charge the car on Kauai. While there are no level 3 (super fast) charging stations on island, some resorts have complementary level 2 charging stations, which will give you about 25 to 30 miles of range per hour of charging. Level 2 charging stations exist at many other locations around the island, and many of them are free of to use. I'd be glad to give you advice on where and how to charge when needed. I will also provide you with the charging cable and an extension cord so you can charge using a normal 110 volt outlet overnight or any other time you are parked at your rental house or condo (about 5 miles per hour of charging). If you return the car with less than 60% charge, I will charge for refueling at a rate less than outlined in Turo's policies, given the low range. The EV charging fee is based on the battery level, as follows: 0%–10% charge (approximately 0 to 8 miles) = $50 0%–20% charge (approximately 9 to 17 miles) = $20 21%–60% charge (approximately 18 to 50 miles) = $10
