Once an EV pioneer, Nissan is currently lagging behind many competitors. The Ariya is a compact electric SUV offering a choice of two batteries (66 kWh or 91 kWh) and four output levels (214-389 horsepower). Due to the various configurations available, maximum range can be anywhere between 330-490 km. The driving experience, while comfortable, is rather uninspiring.
