Guillermo and Anton were so great to work with! Very easy to communicate via Text and Phone. They gave us a great deal and worked seamlessly with the government rebates and vouchers. They have kept in touch to make sure we were satisfied. I am sending all my friends their way!

We had a very good experience with EV Rides. They are very knowledgeable and they want to do right by their customers. They care about their customers from beginning to end. We’ve been Leaf owners for 10 years and so we know what a good EV product is. We highly recommend EV Rides to anyone looking to replace an old EV or try one for the first time.

The EV Rides team was fantastic. I flew up to Portland to visit. Found the perfect 2014 Leaf and had the 62kwh battery option installed. Paid a very fair price. Within a few days they had it shipped to my home in Southern California. The communication was terrific too. Quick and honest responses on everything before and after the purchase. These people know what they’re doing and they do it well with grace and professionalism that is rare. I cannot recommend them enough and truly wish them well in the future.

We knew we wanted a used Nissan Leaf, and were ok with the standard 24kwh used range (60-80 miles). After much research we connected with EV Rides, as their prices were lower than a dealer and it was easier than finding a private seller and coordinating everything ourselves. They had a low mileage, pristine 2013 Leaf that met our criteria, they put a high quality used 24kwh battery in it, and within a day we drove home a beautiful, reliable car for a very reasonable price. The process was quick, easy, and we love the car. I can see why they are so busy!

A couple of years back, my old ICE vehicle died. I bought a gently used 2017 Leaf with the idea of upgrading it. Well, it took me another couple of years, but I finally did it back in January. EV Rides hooked me up with a 62kWh pack that's almost like new! I knew what I was getting into originally, but with the upgrade, it's like night and day. Driving around town, I only charge once a week now, and road tripping is actually practical again. Kudos to these guys providing a valuable service while new EV's are still quite expensive. I have a slick, functional car for way less. My service is backed by a warranty. The whole process was relatively painless, transport from Seattle was arranged, and I was kept well in the loop on the steps and progress. Happy customer over here.

All interactions with the business owner, Guillermo, have been efficient and pleasant. He's honest and he knows his stuff 🙂

Quick review - About a month ago, I had EV Rides replace the battery in my 2012 Leaf, and honestly couldn't be happier with the whole experience. Would highly recommend if you're looking to replace the battery in your Leaf. Full review - I've always wanted an electric car, so when I saw a 2012 Leaf for only $4500 back in 2019, I jumped at the chance. The battery originally got 68 miles on a full charge (24kWh battery), which was enough for my daily drives around town. However, by December 2023, the battery was only giving me 38 miles on a full charge, and I had to charge it daily, because of having to use the heater. I started looking for a new affordable electric car and came across an ad for EV Rides on Craigslist offering battery replacement and upgrades. The only problem was that their shop was a 2-hour drive from my town, so I wasn't sure how I would get the car there. Even so I decided to go ahead and give them a call and see if they could help me. After leaving a voice message I got a call back from Guillermo, he was able to answer all my questions and explained that they could arrange transportation for my car with a tow company, which cost me $250 one way. After a bit of planning, my car was towed to EV Rides, and they replaced the battery the same day. The new battery is at 83% battery health and gets 78 miles on a full charge (24kWh battery). A months has passed and I can honestly say that I'm very satisfied with the battery replacement. I can now drive around and use the heater without worrying about my mileage. I expect to drive worry-free for another 5-6 years before needing to think about the battery again. When that day comes, I'll definitely contact EV Rides again.

It’s hard to not “over-praise” EV Rides. These guys are honest, responsive, caring, reasonable, and most of all HONEST. I just finished my “maiden voyage” of 260 miles in my newly updated 2013 Leaf (40k battery install). Stopped only twice to charge. Left with 141 range, even in cold weather. Yesterday, I looked at my dash and it said 159 range! Gueliermo and Anton are superb mechanics and businessmen and I recommend them without hesitation. Thank you guys for giving my Leaf new life. 👍🏁

My wife and I loved our 2013 Leaf SL and decided to have EV Rides install a 62KwH battery. Loved the change! 250 mile range and works great! Anton and Guillermo are honest and great to work with!

I have had my 2013 Nissan Leaf SL from EV Rides for almost a year now. The car has been trouble free the entire time. The people at EV Rides represented the car truthfully and has performed as promised. The staff is knowledgable and accessible for further information about the vehicle. Thanks EV Rides for providing me with a reliable vehicle. ERIC
