For more than a decade, Nissan has been a pioneer in mass-market electric vehicles with more than 500,000 LEAF vehicles sold globally and far more than five billion EV miles driven worldwide. Now, the company is further demonstrating that commitment to mass-market electric cars, lowering the MSRP of the all-electric 2022 LEAF to make it more accessible and provide even more value to customers than ever before.
The 2022 Nissan LEAF is on sale now with a starting MSRP of $27,400 for the LEAF S. Qualified purchasers may also be eligible for potential federal tax credit of up to $7,500.
Adding more value for customers, LEAF receives more standard key EV-focused features for model year 2022, including a CHAdeMO Quick Charge Port and portable 240-volt charging cable for every model. Additionally, eight features previously featured in the Technology Packages for the SV PLUS grade, including ProPILOT Assist and Intelligent Around View Monitor, will now be standard.
“Nissan was the first automaker with a globally-available mass-market electric vehicle and we’re continuing in the tradition of making electric vehicles available to everyone,” said Aditya Jairaj, director, EV Sales and Marketing, Nissan U.S. “With the amount of technology that LEAF offers, combined with new pricing, this is simply just an amazing value.”
LEAF is equipped with a 40 kWh lithium-ion battery and 110-kW electric motor that delivers 147 horsepower, 236 lb-ft of torque and up to 149 miles of range. It’s available in S and SV trim levels.
Nissan LEAF PLUS features a larger-capacity 62-kWh lithium-ion battery, increasing the range to up to 226 mile (LEAF S PLUS only). LEAF PLUS also features a more powerful 160 kW motor that produces 214 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque. LEAF PLUS is offered in three trim levels – S PLUS, SV PLUS and SL PLUS.
