The all-new Nissan LEAF has arrived, and what a transformation! EV enthusiasts who’ve been following the market’s journey are calling this third-generation LEAF the breakthrough British drivers have been hoping for.
The electric revolution has a new champion, and it’s got a familiar name with a fresh new face.
A Legacy Worth Celebrating
Since its debut back in 2010, the all-new Nissan LEAF has been a proper trailblazer – the world’s first mass-market electric vehicle, no less.
With nearly 700,000 units sold worldwide, it’s earned its stripes as an EV icon. Now, fifteen years on, Nissan has completely reimagined their electric darling for the modern age, and the results are rather impressive.
Design That Turns Heads

Sleek Meets Practical
The all-new LEAF’s design is absolutely gorgeous, with a sleek, aerodynamic silhouette that wouldn’t look out of place in a sci-fi film.
Every curve and line has been crafted not just for beauty, but for efficiency too.
Nissan’s Global Design Studio in Atsugi, Japan, have created something that’s compact enough for city driving yet spacious enough for family life.
Flush door handles, a flowing roofline, and those distinctive 3D rear lamps give it a properly futuristic appearance that’ll have your neighbours doing double-takes.
Colours and Character
You’ve got seven exterior colour options to choose from, including the all-new Nissan LEAF’s signature Luminous Teal – a lovely turquoise shade that’s uniquely LEAF.
Inside, you can opt for black or white trim with purple accents, giving the cabin a modern, sophisticated feel.
The wheel designs are particularly clever, with options ranging from 18-inch alloys on the entry grade right up to 19-inch wheels on the top spec.
Even better, the 18-inch design features a subtle nod to the ‘Ni-San’ pattern, echoing those striking holographic tail lamps.

All-New Nissan LEAF: Range You Can Trust

Two Battery Options with Endless Possibilities
Here’s where things get exciting. The all-new Nissan LEAF comes with two battery options that address one of the biggest concerns about electric motoring – range anxiety:
- Standard (52kWh): Up to 270 miles on a single charge
- Extended (75kWh): Up to 375 miles on a single charge
That 375-mile range is genuinely impressive – enough to drive from London to Edinburgh with miles to spare!
Even at motorway speeds (130km/h), you’re still looking at more than 205 miles of range, which means those long journeys become far less stressful.
Charging Made Easy
The charging capabilities are equally impressive.
With DC fast-charging up to 150kW, you can add 260 miles of range in just 30 minutes – perfect for a coffee break on a long journey.
The intelligent battery thermal management system works with Google Maps to optimise battery temperature as you approach charging stations, ensuring you get the fastest possible charging speeds.

Smart Tech that Makes Sense

Google Built-In
One of the standout features is the integration of Google services directly into the car’s twin 14.3″ screens.
You get Google Maps, Google Assistant, and access to the Play Store without needing to faff about with your phone.
Navigation, climate control, and media can all be controlled hands-free, making the driving experience genuinely seamless.
Practical Tech Features
The all-new Nissan LEAF is packed with clever technology that makes sense:
- ProPILOT Assist adapts to curves and speed limits for relaxed motorway driving
- e-Pedal Step gives you smooth one-pedal driving in town
- 3D Around View Monitor helps with those tricky parking situations
- Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) functionality lets you power camping equipment or tools directly from the car

A Family Car That Happens to Be Electric

Space and Practicality
Despite its sleek exterior, the all-new Nissan LEAF offers 437 litres of boot space and a cleverly designed cargo area that can be configured in different ways.
The power liftgate makes loading easier, whilst roof rails are available on selected variants for those weekend adventures.
The interior feels genuinely spacious, with clean lines, excellent visibility, and ambient lighting that creates a lovely atmosphere.
The panoramic dimming glass roof is a particularly nice touch, flooding the cabin with natural light whilst maintaining that premium feel.
All-New Nissan LEAF: Built Right Here in Britain
There’s something rather satisfying about knowing your electric car was built in the UK, Sunderland in fact, as part of Nissan’s EV36Zero initiative.
It’s not just about supporting British manufacturing – it’s about being part of a sustainable electric future for Europe.
Final Thoughts: Electric Motoring Done Right
The all-new Nissan LEAF represents a proper evolution of the electric car. It’s taken everything that made the original special – reliability, practicality, and approachability – and wrapped it in a package that’s genuinely desirable.
As more charging infrastructure appears across the UK and electric car adoption continues to grow, the all-new Nissan LEAF arrives as a mature, confident, and thoroughly modern take on electric motoring.
For those who’ve been waiting for an electric car that doesn’t require compromise, your wait might just be over.
The all-new Nissan LEAF isn’t just an electric car – it’s simply a brilliant car that happens to be electric, and you can register your interest right now.
