2022 Nissan LEAF Review

If you're ready to leap into all-electric driving around St. Charles, St. Louis, O'Fallon, and Saint Peters, MO, having the ideal electric vehicle (EV) will make the transition even easier. That may be why you're thinking about getting behind the wheel of the 2022 Nissan LEAF.

Our team at St. Charles Nissan is here to introduce you to this spirited EV. Let's see what the Nissan LEAF can bring to your daily drive!

Leaving Gas in the Past With the Nissan LEAF

At the heart of the 2022 Nissan LEAF, you'll find a standard 110-kilowatt AC synchronous electric motor. It draws power from the 40-kilowatt lithium-ion battery. These work together to provide an EPA-estimated 123 city/99 highway MPGe.¹

Are all-electric vehicles like the Nissan LEAF powerful? You bet they are! If you choose the available pairing of a 62-kilowatt lithium-ion battery and a 160-kilowatt AC synchronous electric motor, you'll enjoy up to 214 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque. Best of all, this more powerful configuration still achieves an EPA-estimated 114 city/94 highway MPGe.¹

How long does the Nissan LEAF take to charge? Well, that depends on the type of charger you use. The Level 2 charger will give you a full charge in about eight hours. However, if you're in a hurry, use the available 50-kilowatt DC Quick Charging station. It'll get you to 80% in just 40 minutes.

Comfort That Keeps You Charged

You know that a more comfortable ride equals more energy when you reach your destination. That's why the Nissan LEAF comes with tons of interior amenities like available leather-appointed seats and an available 8-way power adjustable driver's seat.

The standard NissanConnect® infotainment system is all about keeping you in touch with the world around you. The 8-inch touchscreen gives you command of the following technologies:

• Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System
• Apple CarPlay®
• Android Auto™
• SiriusXM®
• Nissan Door to Door Navigation with Premium Traffic

Is there anything that keeps you energized quite like a good song? The Bose Energy Efficient Series Premium Audio System is available with the LEAF. It surrounds you in the sounds of seven speakers and gives you the peace of mind that comes with knowing the Bose engineers created it to save power while optimizing sound quality.

Is the Nissan LEAF Safe?

You'll already have plenty of peace of mind in a car that's looking out for the environment, and that feeling is amplified with standard Safety Shield® 360. It includes:

• Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection
• Rear Automatic Braking
• Rear Cross Traffic Alert
• Blind Spot Warning
• Lane Departure Warning
• High Beam Assist

You'll also have ProPILOT Assist by your side. This available feature is an advanced cruise control that will maintain a variable speed while keeping a safe distance between you and the car ahead. It can even help keep you centered in your lane.

The compact design of the Nissan LEAF already makes it really easy to park, and the available Intelligent Around View® Monitor is here to make it even more seamless. It'll give you a virtual 360-degree bird's-eye view of the vehicle, so you'll be able to maneuver into even the tightest parking spot.
