Nissan LEAF has just got a sleek new look

Nissan is poised to attract a whole new generation of EV drivers thanks to the launch of the all-new Nissan LEAF, which has been reimagined as a spacious family crossover to make every day electric driving better.

The sleek all-new Nissan LEAF epitomises Nissan’s commitment to deliver electric driving as it should be offering longer range, better range at motorway speeds, faster charging speeds, intuitive technology and a spacious interior.

No other electric vehicle on the market has the same heritage as the Nissan LEAF which has sold close to 700,000 units since its debut in 2010. Its success as the world’s first mass-market electric vehicle has informed every aspect of its stylish redesign and return as the one EV that buyers can trust to tick all the boxes.

“Nissan has a deep and unrivalled understanding of what drivers are looking for in an electric vehicle. The all-new Nissan LEAF delivers a no compromise driving experience that makes it easy to fit electric driving into your everyday life, rather than it being the other way around,” said Seamus Morgan, Managing Director of Nissan Ireland. “The all-new Nissan LEAF is a standout EV on every level. It looks amazing. It goes further on one charge. It charges faster when you need to recharge. It is packed with technology that is seamlessly integrated for today’s connected driver, and it has plenty of space to meet the everyday needs of modern families,” he added.

“This is the EV that buyers have been waiting for. They trust the Nissan LEAF nameplate and know that this is the world’s first third generation EV. This unique combination of heritage and expertise gives buyers the confidence to make the switch to electric driving in the all-new Nissan LEAF and this is proven by the phenomenal interest in this EV across the Nissan dealer network,” he continued.

The stylish new Nissan LEAF has a top range of up to 622 kilometres and can recover up to 420 kilometres in just 30 minutes with DC fast-charging. With a range of up to 370 kilometres at 120 kph longer journeys can be accomplished with fewer charging stops.

The sleek design of the all-new Nissan LEAF introduces a brand-new stylish crossover silhouette that reflects its dynamic character and aerodynamic efficiency. Flush door handles, a flowing roofline, full under floor cover, and sculpted surfaces create a modern profile, while its signature front and rear lighting deliver a distinct, high-tech identity on the road.

The onboard technology is designed for seamless integration. NissanConnect with Google built-in is at the heart of this connected experience, offering Google Maps with In Car Route Planner, Google Assistance for hands-free control over navigation, media, climate and more, and Google Play for apps, streaming and productivity tools.

The all-new LEAF is also equipped with a suite of advanced safety and driver assistance features from Intelligent Emergency Braking and Blind Spot Intervention to Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Lane Keep Assists. Its 3D Around View Monitor, Invisible Hood View and Front Wide View make parking and navigating tight spaces easier and safer.

The impressive range and spacious interior of the all-new Nissan LEAF make it both a practical and comfortable choice as the main household car, capable of everything from daily commutes to long distance travel. It offers 437 litres of cargo space and access to the boot is made more convenient with the availability of a power liftgate.

It is also equipped with Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) functionality enabling external device charging directly from the car, powering a variety of small to medium sized devices such as kettles, portable lights, or electric grills when camping or exploring the great outdoors.

The all-new Nissan LEAF has two battery options. The 52kWh battery offers up to 424 kilometres range, while the 75kWh battery offers a top range of up to 622 kilometres. Both variants support DC fast-charging up to 105kW and 150kW respectively and are available in three grades.
