About the Nissan Leaf
The third-generation Nissan Leaf represents a radical departure from its hatchback roots, adopting a sleek crossover silhouette inspired by the Chill-Out concept. Built on the AmpR Medium platform shared with the Ariya, it features a significantly improved 75kWh liquid-cooled battery pack that addresses the thermal management issues of previous generations. The interior is modernised with a minimalist dual-screen cockpit and sustainable materials, while the driving experience is defined by instant torque and a more refined, independent rear suspension. It remains one of the most accessible entry points into the electric vehicle market, now offering over 300 miles of range.
