Nissan LEAF

The Car Guide rating 65%(view ratings)
Other than a big $6,800 price cut, the LEAF is unchanged for 2022. It still offers a choice of two batteries. One is rated at 40 kWh and the other at 62 kWh. The former provides a range of 240 kilometres, while the latter allows drivers to travel up to 363 kilometres. Now starting at under $38,000, the LEAF is an interesting proposition. And yet Nissan plans to replace it with a small crossover by mid-decade.
