The cute and compact 2025 Nissan LEAF is a fantastic choice for first-time drivers, eco-conscious drivers, and urban-dwelling drivers. Nissan’s flagship electric model has a competitive range with quick charging abilities, a variety of practical features suited for modern life, and driver assistance technology to boost your confidence on the road.
The entry-level LEAF is the S model, which has a standard front-wheel drivetrain. A front-wheel drivetrain has a simple design that places the weight and power of the engine at the front of the vehicle, which can optimize space under the hood and reduce some vehicle weight. You can count on a front-wheel drivetrain to provide maximum traction, excellent energy efficiency, and stable handling in all traffic environments.
The S FWD is powered by an AC synchronous motor that generates 147 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque. The exceptional torque of this electric model means it can quickly accelerate from a stopped position, while the horsepower gives the LEAF steady speed. The S FWD has Intelligent Trace Control, a brake-actuated limited-slip differential that enhances on-road stability by pumping the brakes when wheel slip is detected.
Efficiency and Charging
The S FWD has an estimated electric range of up to 149 miles when the drive battery is fully charged. In terms of energy efficiency, this model gets 123 MPGe in urban traffic environments and 99 MPGe on the interstate.
The base LEAF model comes with a quick charge port so you can enjoy flexible charging options. For at-home charging, you can use a Level 2 240-volt charger to recharge the battery overnight in about eight hours. DC Fast Charging at a public charging station can be completed in about 40 minutes.
Connectivity
The S FWD comes with a seven-inch multi-function information digital cluster in the cockpit that can be configured to change the appearance, gauge position, and data displayed on the screen. This model also has an eight-inch central touchscreen for the sophisticated NissanConnect infotainment system.
Your standard connectivity options are wireless Bluetooth, smartphone-integrated apps (Android Auto and Apple CarPlay), and Siri Eyes Free. Smartphone-connected apps allow you to use voice commands for hands-free text messaging, apps for weather and traffic updates, and various streaming services. The steering wheel has illuminated controls so you can manage your audio settings while keeping your hands on the wheel.
Safety
The base LEAF is equipped with Intelligent Lane Intervention and Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention. Intelligent Lane Intervention works by emitting a warning if you drift into neighboring traffic lanes and intervening with steering guidance to keep your vehicle centered between lane markers. The Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention system stops you from changing lanes when another vehicle is in your blind zone.
The Nissan LEAF is an excellent EV for drivers who want to eliminate carbon emissions, particularly daily drivers who enjoy practical safety and infotainment. Call Ken Ganley Nissan Mayfield in OH to book a test drive today.
