Nissan Leaf News

A California company is showing the template for whole used battery packs from Nissan Leaf EVs to be used as megawatt-hour grid storage.

In addition to a price cut of more than $4,000 at the base level, the Leaf gets more standard equipment, including DC fast-charging on the base Leaf S.

When a compact EV with a range of up to 226 miles isn't enough, buyers have the option of turning to Turo, as a new incentive suggests.

A single range figure doesn't always accurately convey how far an EV can actually travel, or if it will fit your life.

It's a carryover year for Nissan's original electric car, while the company preps for an Ariya in its future.

Partly it's price, and although there are more Tesla Model S cars in the U.S. than Nissan Leafs, Model S owners hold onto them for much longer.

Although it's taken Nissan a lot longer to hit this milestone than originally planned, the Leaf has made history by proving that EVs can be mass-produced.

The Leaf electric car comes in a range of models, some offering up to 226 miles of range and all now including an expanded set of active-safety features.

It's not entirely a Leaf, actually, but a demonstration of what its next-generation scalable electric platform might be able to do.

Nissan has reportedly previewed its upcoming electric crossover model to dealers, who will now have to wait longer than expected for its market arrival.

Nissan Leaf models in the US will need to visit the dealership for a TSB-specified software update allowing multiple road-trip fast-charges.

The combination of incentives available to those who buy or lease an electric car can vary quite widely by state, region, and even city.

We’re a long way from peak electric car, but we’ve finally left base camp. Big strides in battery capacity mean that picking between the 238-mile 2019 Chevy Bolt EV and the recently boosted 226-mile 2019 Nissan Leaf Plus comes down to a dozen miles of range. After a week behind the...

If more power, a 226-mile range, and a $39,405 base price—before considering the full $7,500 federal EV tax credit you can still get—collectively seems like the sweet spot for the Leaf, you probably have GM to thank. Nissan has admitted that it never planned to push the Leaf above a...

Which self-driving system didn't rank well in the latest study? What car has given us range anxiety at least once? This is our look back at the Week In Reverse—right here at Green Car Reports—for the week ending March 22, 2019. This week ended with lots of announcements from automakers...

BMW and Audi are rounding out their lineups with new plug-in and electric SUVs. Customizable Fiat Centoventi concept could show a replacement for the 500e.

With Tesla looming in its rearview mirrors, the little Nissan Leaf is chuffing ahead in the global electric-car sales race. The company that built the original modern electric car announced on Tuesday that it sold its 400,000th copy of the Leaf worldwide, just as the longer-range Leaf Plus version...

When it arrives in dealers this month, the longer-range 2019 Nissan Leaf S Plus will cost $37,445, including destination, the automaker said Friday. That's in line with what we expected from documents leaked earlier this year, and drives the net price of the compact hatchback close to $30,000, if...

When a completely new vehicle is introduced, it's generally around for five to seven years before an entirely redesigned generation of that vehicle is launched. By that measure, the 2019 Nissan Leaf Plus we reviewed earlier this week is ancient, with a basic structure in its ninth model...

At the moment, there are more Nissan Leafs on the world’s roads than any other electric car in history—closing in on 400,000. As of Jan 1, Nissan had delivered 380,000 Leafs globally, 130,000 of them in the United States. Nissan is entirely aware that honor may not last long. It all...
