2025 Nissan LEAF

The Nissan LEAF was one of the very first electric vehicles to hit the market, and it’s now been going strong for 15 years. Over the course of these 15 years, advancements in battery technology and powertrain efficiency have enabled the 2025 Nissan LEAF to offer improved driving range and energy management, making it one of the most reliable EVs for city commuters.

1. Proven Electric Performance

The LEAF delivers reliable, emissions-free performance with two battery and motor options. The base S model comes with a 40-kWh battery and a 110-kW motor. This setup produces 147 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque, and has an EPA-estimated range of 149 miles per charge, making it a capable option for city commuters.

The SV PLUS trim uses a 60-kWh battery and a 160-kW motor to deliver 214 hp and 212 miles per charge, making it an ideal option for longer commutes or weekend trips. Both models use Nissan’s e-Pedal regenerative braking system, when helps recharge the battery during deceleration.

2. Charging Convenience

The LEAF supports multiple charging options to accommodate different lifestyles and driving habits. Every model includes a portable charging cable that is compatible with 120V and 240V outlets, facilitating easy at-home charging. For faster recharging, drivers can take their LEAF to a public DC fast charging station, which recovers up to 80% battery capacity in only 40 to 45 minutes, depending on battery size.

3. Practical Interior

The LEAF is a compact hatchback that comfortably seats five passengers. The driver-focused interior includes a large windshield that offers exceptional visibility and controls that are within easy reach. Both trims feature standard heated front seats, while the SV PLUS trim includes a heated and leather-wrapped steering wheel. Cargo capacity is generous for a compact car, with 23.6 cubic feet in the rear and 30 cubic feet with the rear seats folded.

4. Remote EV Services

All new purchases come with a 3-year subscription to NissanConnect EV Services, which enables owners to access and control their LEAF from the MyNISSAN app. Through the app, you can precondition the cabin, lock or unlock the doors and access information about the battery status.

5. Modern Infotainment System

Standard across both trims is an 8-inch infotainment touchscreen that includes Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth connectivity, and voice recognition. An optional navigation system makes getting around the city easier. SV PLUS includes SiriusXM radio and a 6-speaker audio system, though a 7-speaker Bose stereo is optional.
