About the Nissan Ariya
The Nissan Ariya represents a significant leap forward from the pioneering Leaf, built on the dedicated CMF-EV platform shared with Renault. The 63 kWh variant serves as the entry point, offering a front-wheel-drive configuration focused on efficiency and refinement rather than outright speed. Its interior is a standout feature, utilising a 'lounge' concept with a flat floor, haptic touch controls integrated into wood trim, and a sliding centre console. On the road, it is noted for its exceptional suppression of wind and road noise, providing a serene driving experience that aligns with its minimalist Japanese aesthetic.

Nissan Ariya fun facts
- The Ariya's front grille features a traditional Japanese 'Kumiko' pattern, which hides the sensors for the ProPILOT driver assistance systems.
- Unlike many EVs, the Ariya uses an externally excited synchronous motor (EESM) which avoids the use of rare-earth magnets.
- The interior features haptic feedback buttons that are integrated directly into the open-pore wood-effect dashboard trim, vibrating slightly when touched.
