Overview

  • The Leaf S+ starts at $29,990 before fees, or $31,485 with a $1,495 destination charge, which Nissan touts as the lowest starting MSRP for any new EV in the U.S.
  • Pricing for higher trims is set at $34,230 for the SV+ and $38,990 for the Platinum+, while the entry S trim’s price will be announced later.
  • The Plus models use a 75 kWh battery for up to an EPA-estimated 303 miles of range; the forthcoming base S will use a 52 kWh pack.
  • All U.S.-market versions include a NACS charging port for Tesla Supercharger access and vehicle-to-load capability, with DC fast charging from 10% to 80% in as little as 35 minutes.
  • U.S. deliveries begin this fall as the third-generation Leaf arrives with a fastback-crossover redesign and a more tech-forward cabin.
