FAQ

2025 Nissan Leaf EV – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

🔋 1. What is the range of the 2025 Nissan Leaf?

  • Leaf S (40 kWh battery): ~149 miles (EPA-rated)

  • Leaf SV Plus (60 kWh battery): ~215 miles (EPA-rated)
    Note: Real-world range may vary based on driving style, terrain, and weather.


⚡ 2. Does the Nissan Leaf support fast charging?

  • Yes, but only through CHAdeMO, which is outdated.

    • Max speed: ~50 kW

    • 40–80% charge takes ~40–60 minutes


🔌 3. Can I charge the Leaf at home?

  • Yes. The Leaf comes with a Level 1 (120V) charging cable.

  • For faster charging (~8–11 hours full), use a Level 2 (240V) home charger.


💰 4. How much does the 2025 Nissan Leaf cost?

  • Starting price:

    • Leaf S: ~$28,140

    • Leaf SV Plus: ~$36,190
      Prices may vary based on local incentives or dealership promotions.


🛞 5. Is the 2025 Leaf good for long road trips?

  • Not ideal. The limited range and slow DC fast charging make long-distance travel difficult compared to newer EVs like the Hyundai Ioniq 6 or Tesla Model 3.


🌡️ 6. Does the Leaf have battery thermal management?

  • No. The Leaf does not use active liquid cooling.
    This can lead to faster battery degradation in hot climates or with frequent fast charging.


🧰 7. What are the maintenance needs?

  • Very low. As an EV, the Leaf has:

    • No oil changes

    • Fewer moving parts

    • Regenerative braking extends brake life


🎵 8. What tech/features come standard?

  • 8″ touchscreen

  • Apple CarPlay & Android Auto

  • Nissan Safety Shield 360 (auto emergency braking, lane assist, etc.)

  • ProPILOT Assist (SV Plus trim only)


🔄 9. What are the main downsides of the 2025 Leaf?

  • Low range for its class

  • Slow charging with CHAdeMO

  • No battery cooling

  • Dated interior design

  • Steep depreciation over time


🚗 10. Will there be a new Nissan Leaf soon?

  • Yes. Nissan is phasing out the current Leaf and replacing it with an all-new crossover-style EV built on the Ariya platform, launching late 2025 or 2026. It will likely include:

    • CCS/NACS fast charging

    • Over 300 miles of range

    • Modern design and tech
