No, a late model high kWh Leaf. Market has collapsed here, but not yet in Japan, so no point in importing.

I looked recently at importing an EV from Japan 3 issues

No warranty (at least with the one I enquired with)
Cost did no seem much less than buying the same import locally
Chademo AC charge port fitted to Euro cars that usually had CCS
