Charging and Range

Real-world range, home charging, and the NISSAN ENERGY Charge Network — in plain terms.

Packed with advanced technology and reliable battery performance, the Nissan LEAF® and Nissan ARIYA are built to take you farther than ever. As your local Nissan dealer, Old Orchard Nissan is your partner on your EV journey.

Travel Further on a Single Charge

Drive with ease knowing that Nissan EV batteries will get you comfortably to your next destination — backed by the confidence that every new Nissan EV features an 8-year/100,000-mile (whichever comes first) limited battery warranty that covers capacity loss, not just failure: if the battery drops below nine of the twelve segments on the capacity gauge within that window, it’s covered.

Nissan ARIYA

The Nissan ARIYA — Nissan’s larger, design-led electric crossover — ended U.S. production after the 2025 model year, so the only way into one today is pre-owned. An ARIYA that comes through our EV Certified program has passed a 139-point inspection and carries a factory-backed limited warranty; ask us what’s currently on our certified lot, or see our certified inventory.

Maximum Range: Up to 289 EPA-estimated miles on select trims

Battery: Available up to 87 kWh battery

Nissan LEAF®

The Nissan LEAF is Nissan’s first-ever mass-produced 100% electric vehicle. The standard 40kWh battery delivers 100% torque every time you step on the accelerator.

Maximum Range: Up to 212 EPA-estimated miles on select trims

Battery: Available 60 kWh battery

Level 1 Charging

In a pinch? Plug in to any 110-120-V 15-amp dedicated outlet for charging. Level 1 charging is exclusively for at-home use. Most electric vehicles, including the ARIYA and LEAF, include a Level 1 charging cable. These cables can add up to 2-5 miles of range per hour of charging.

Level 2 Charging

Level 2 chargers are used for both in-home and public charging stations. Professional installation is required for Level 2 charging. These units draw power from a dedicated 240-V, 50 amp outlet, adding 10-25 miles of range per hour of charging — much less time than Level 1 charging to charge an EV from empty to full.

Level 3 Charging, or Fast Charging

Level 3 charging, also known as fast charging, is the quickest way to charge your EV. Level 3 chargers use direct current (DC) power for expedited charging of the Nissan ARIYA and LEAF. There are thousands of 480-V public DC fast charging stations across the country.
