Nissan LEAF
Slightly refreshed for 2023, the LEAF sports a cleaner front fascia and a bold new set of wheels. Inside, the redesigned Nissan logo appears on the steering wheel and new animation pops up on the instrument cluster when the car starts. The S Plus model has been eliminated even though it offered the longest range (363 km). Other LEAF models can travel up to 240 km or 349 km depending on battery size (40 kWh or 62 kWh).
