Nissan is reinventing themselves with a new logo and a massive new overhaul for the new decade. Finally I was able to spend a week in the Leaf replacement, the Ariya. As tested at $56,940, this Ariya Platinum + AWD was fully loaded. And? While it could be more competitive powertrain and charging wise, this is the best Nissan interior EVER, and the design is slick too. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
@Allcarnews Spec sheet:
87kWh battery
e4ORCE torque vectoring AWD
389HP and 442 lbft of torque
060MPH in 4.8 Seconds
265 miles of EPA Range

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Highs:
+Interior design, build quality, tech features, are truly top notch. It could be an Infiniti in there.
+Ariya fixes every Leaf flaw: CCS charging, decent range, lots of interior space, FWD or AWD options, wide price range.
+While not sporty, the Ariya offers a quiet and well damped ride. Oh it can drive itself too with Propilot 2.0.

Lows:
While the interior is impressive, the door armrest ergonomics need to be rethought.
Charging speeds are OK, though could be quicker.
Lacks any driving engagement/dynamics.
eStep is straight up odd. Need a onepedal drive mode asap.

7.5/10 Seriously consider one with the recent dealer incentives. Best new Japanese EV I’ve experienced yet.
