Originally released in Japan and the US in 2010, the original Nissan Leaf has won numerous awards and had sold 400,000 models as of March 2019 making it the world’s all-time best-selling EV.
Now, the second-generation Leaf takes what made the pioneer so good and improves upon it. A more modern look with a bigger 38kWh battery pack means the 2019 edition can travel for 168 miles before needing a recharge. Even then, the fast home charging takes just seven hours (plenty quick enough for when you’re sleeping) and the rapid public charging (CHAdeMO) will give you enough juice in around 42 minutes.
The newer Leaf e+ has a much-improved range and performance, offering 215 miles on one charge, a faster 0-60 time and faster rapid charge rates.
Either way, Nissan Leaf offers all the functionality and performance you could need in a medium-sized family hatchback.
