Not unless they're rich or influential, and not in the Leaf's seat even if
they are. Here's what the NYT piece says :
"The Leaf prototype that crowds will be checking out is close to what the
production will look like. But the car on display doesn´t run.
"However, a Nissan Versa outfitted with the Leaf´s powertrain will be
available for special drives for the news media, politicians and V.I.P.´s.
No public drives will be offered."
Cool, I can go look at a non-operational sample, and watch some
disinterested local politician drive something else. Great.
This is a car they say they're going to sell in a year, and they don't even
have a working prototype that potential buyers can drive? Sounds like
they've hired GM's PR department. Way to go, Nissan.
