- Nissan have finally reproduced a new EV after over a decade with the LEAF. So have they caught up with the rest or still lagging behind?

We got the base Ariya model a month ago and love the car. We were going to get the Kia EV Nero but cancelled the order after a test drive because it was so underwelming. We test drove the Tesla model 3 but did not go for that due to phantom braking issues. We test drove the Kia EV 6 which was a nice car but the seats were unbelievably uncomfortable for me but not the wife. We test drove the MG ZS which was okay but nothing special. We sat in the Volkswagen ID3 but thought the interior looked dated. (Is it just me or do all Volkswagen models look identical on the inside). We then test drove the Ariya and loved the ride, loved how quiet and comfy it was, so we pushed the boat out and ordered one (before the price rise) with the sun roof (Sky pack). We haven't looked back. Yes, the charging is slower than some of the competition but then again we have not done any long journeys that require us to charge away from home so adding 40 odd percent to the battery in the cheap 4 hours overnight once every 5 days is fine by us.
Whats funny is the 87KW Ariya still charges faster than an ID4 GTX or a C40 Recharge in practical terms as it holds the charge curve above 90KW till 90%
Great review thanks been looking at a lot of ev’s myself and the Ariya has really grown on me , and with you reviewing the other cars you have definitely made my mind up I think, just one question can you plug a 3 pin plug in anywhere like the EV6 & INOIQ 5??
Good to hear youre happy with your choice. We went ahead and ordered the Ariya in Advance trim with Sky pack too.
Despite the lower charge speeds on paper, something to do with the battery technology means the Ariya will charge faster for a lomger, sustained period versus its competitors. Somewhat making up for tge shortfall in outright charging speed.
We're told April for delivery for ours but id be surprised if we see it before August, given we ordered only last Nov. Happy EV'ing!
Phantom breaking is such a made up problem. Owned my tesla for 2 years, never done it, all the people i know who own one, never happened.
Same for me tested most evs, but I like this the best. I live in Northern Norway, so i was not to happy with the fwd. But the awd was great, looking forward to delivery.
Bought one. Tried them all Polestar, to small boot, cramped up front, EV6 didn't like the screens nor the cabin style bit stiff in the suspension, Ioniq 5 close but ride stiff. Drove this and loved it.
Charging is pretty cool. Sits at 115 to 90 so pretty quick. After 80% still sits at 50-60.
Also the spec is off the charts compared to other manufacturers.
@@scottcameron8936 specs vs reality
We have also ordered the base one. It is a lot cheaper than the Kia EV6 and the Ioniq 5, which we looked at as well. And after sitting in all the cars at Fully Charged Live it had much the best interior too, if that is something that is important to you! Even nicer inside than the Taycan!
Had my Ariya Evolve 87 kWh for a week now, absolutely fantastic.
Why the Ariya?
The Ariya looks fresh and new compared to the competition, other marques could learn from its interior.
I don't know what VW was trying to achieve with the interiors of the ID range, not to mention the software.
The EV 6 isn't really an SUV, seems aimed at sportier younger drivers with the usual "cockpit" style interior.
Enyac looks like every other VW group SUV type vehicle.
Ionic 5 is more like a hatchback than an SUV.
If your worried about price go for the MG.
Btw, the charging speed of the big battery Ariya is actually very good, it has quite a flat charging curve and mine charges at a steady 115 kW from anything starting below 10% charge up to about 56% charge after which it ramps down slowly, it was still pulling 50 kW at over 90% charge and 40 kW at 96% charge, none of this only charging to 80% polava, so the charge time from say 5% to 95% is quicker than a lot of the competition with higher peak charge rates.
Thanks for the review guys! Have test driven most in this category, it wins in all respects, have one on order, not sure why you think it is expensive, you get a massive spec even in the base edition, it is super competitive in this sector. All SUv EVs are expensive, try speccing a BMW with the tech that the Ariya has & see the price difference for example. It’s just badge snobbery.
I am driving a now 10 years old Nissan Leaf. Zero mechanical or electrical problems. Zero. Nothing. Nada.
I would trust Nissan's reliability more than Volkswagens and Hyundais. Reliability is a number one parameter of an expensive car. Nice interior, quiet and comfortable ride are next in that order. A very promising car indeed. I am very interested, but will wait 3-4 years until my Nissan Leaf dies --which it is showing no signs of doing.
I went for the top model and that colour. It was the price that swung me, as I got a decent discount. One of my peeves is the head up display isn’t positioned correctly as the top bit gets cut off, no matter how I adjust the seating. The charge curve is much flatter than the competition and I’ve no issues with the charge times as I don’t need to find the very high speed chargers
You can adjust the position of the head up display too.
I drove behind one yesterday and was quite impressed, my only concern was black & I hate black & grey cars, I wonder why people buy them. Nice car otherwise.
I like the look. Finally another EV from Nissan. I also had 2 Nissan's myself. And the leaf was a great car and that's how I started my EV journey. My third car was MG5 which was a bit of an upgrade however after one year and 16k miles just wanted a better looking car with more tech. 3 weeks ago I purchased MG4 and I'm very happy with it.
Would love a slightly bigger family EV as flthe kids are growing but can't justify paying another £15k on top to get this or Skoda Enyaq which I also really like 😃
We’ve got the base one ordered, it’s very highly specced so a bit like the tekna level, looking forward to it as it drives beautifully
What made you choose this over the competition?
(Not a criticism)
Say top spec niro, or id4 or enyac or ionic 5 / EV 6 for example
I’ve got a juke currently and been very happy with Nissan, plus it’s our first ev and the surety of a brand that have been doing Evs a while now! The Kia for example reads a whole host of issues on speakev. Plus less than six month wait predicted, ordered June (when new Kia Niro wasn’t even available to order) and here in November predicted.
I guess one thing to include in videos going forward since competition may have it is V2L. Can you plug anything into this car?
Someone's gonna put their coffee on that tray and accidentally press the close button :D
😂
Having gone through all these options to replace my wifes Volvo XC60, the Ariya is the most SUV-like, a big want for the wife. Polestar 2 and Volvo XC40 recharge are just too small inside, ioniq 5 is a hatchback. the EV6 is an odd crossover. We thought the ID looked like an MPV crossover with the Ariya being the most SUV in stance and profile at this pricepoint. I was quite impressed with the base 'advance' model. There is enough options as standard with an interior that looked robust enough to handle the kids all at a competive (if still overly expensive)£45k pricetag. The Ariya kind of stood out to us in this crowd. Its almost a mid-sized SUV with a surprisingly spacious interior. I wouldnt spec this car beyond FWD Evolve trim personally as from here id start to look elsewhere.
Having watched tons of reviews in the lead up to buying our first EV, I agree there are better, more techologically advanced EVs outhere and I personally would opt for something else but as overall SUV package thats gonna get a job done, the Ariya seems like a good allrounder.
Love the review I would dive into the charging curve on this car from what i hear it’s curve stays VERY high for much longer across the charging range. I have a polestar and its 150kwh charging BUT only for about 10% of the charge. If the Ariya charges at 130kwh for say… 30% of the curve that balances things out
*kW
I understand your comments, however something you may have overlooked is that Nissan throw in a lot of stuff as standard right across the range. Some of the things you get in even the entry level Ariya you would have to pay extra for to get in some competitor's vehicles. It has a full range of safety features, a heat pump, heated front seats and steering wheel, kick rear hatch and lots more. Full disclosure. I don't work for Nissan, but have ordered an Ariya so I'm bound to be a little biased, however even putting that aside, I think once you add some of the standard equipment in the Ariya to other vehicles in the price bracket, the cost will be comparable or even higher. Just my 2p's worth. :)
I have ionic 5 project 45 every think is standard heated front and rear seats electric front and rear seats steerring wheel and paddles to contol the brakes etc now the software has been updated handbrake appllied auto on coming to a stop no need to put foot on break peddle to move forward also a friend of mine has sold one for £53,000 a profit of £5000
My 2012 Skoda Fabia has black gloss trim around the wheels and it's not scuffed up. I think this will hold up a lot better than you think.
Back in 2019, when this was first revealed by Nissan, I loved the design and the outline specs of the car. In 2020, when the IONIQ 5 was announced, those two cars were the standouts for me. However, when I compared the specs (once they were released) the IONIQ 5 was much further ahead of the Ariya than I had thought it would be. But the real killer, as you rightly identified in the review, was than Nissan just took forever to get the Ariya out the door. I have had my IONIQ 5 Project 45 for just over a year, and if I had decided on the Ariya I would still be waiting. Nissan have missed the boat, and today the specs are not as advanced as they were 3 years ago. You definitely summed up the Ariya’s epitaph: too little, too late, for too much.
I'm still waiting to receive it next month and I'm happy after trying the Ioniq and Enyaq that I'm still waiting for the Ariya, for me Nissan isn't late, it arrives just in time in my personal context.
It seems like a much higher quality interior than the Hyundai and the Kia. And I would expect the Nissan to hold up better over time.
I don't understand why people don't give Nissan the credit they deserve.
What have they done since the Leaf thats praise worthy in EV land? It came out 11 years ago.
@@ElectricVehicleMan development Nissan take there time to make sure its perfect the GT-R took 7 years to develop and its still awesome...
@@ElectricVehicleMan The Leaf which was the first mass market EV? A successful one too.
@@scoopermg8226 That wasn’t the question. What have they done since?
Great Chanel ! No bull .
I can just hear Arkwright saying “How much????”
It seems that £45K is just pocket money to ordinary folk now, or am I missing something? To me it would be a life changing amount of money, to help me move and pay debts etc.
@@EgoShredder
I guess most people go down the lease route, so pay monthly while they get paid monthly.
I agree,£45'000 for me is a life changing amount of money.
Very informative!
So, if it is more premium, while is it still Nissan? why not sell it under Infinity brand?
Interior really impressed me and surprised me somewhat. I had the original leaf and found the build a little suspect. However, as you say the price point doesn’t really justify the car for me and there are better overall options for the money.
Another great Vid guys. I've been surprised by the positive reviews of this one, setting aside price, so I'm looking forward to seeing this in Australia. Not a fan of that 2 spoke steering wheel, like my 3 spoke. 🤣
Hello mate what do you think to the New Vietnam Electric Vehicles
I don't like the battery "rental" gimmick.
You have to love the old school 007 compartment
I found the screen clarity on the centre screen very poor.
Buy an ev & watch the second hand value drop like a stone happy motoring guys
Big price cut in Norway now👍👍
Did you know that analog style dials are easier to read with a glance than having to read numbers? And the Ariya gives you the best of both worlds when you need a digital display to read what speed you may be doing.
I tested all these cars they said was better, but i liked the Nissan better. Polstar is faster, but not better to drive. And even the cheaper Ariyas have more equipment than the competition, sometimes i wonder what car the reviewers tried.
You guys said you’d rather have the competition- but if the Ariya top spec Evolve 87 is cheaper than the Enyaq the ev6 which one would you go for the Ariya?
Whichever you prefer. They’re all valid options.
@@ElectricVehicleMan thx for reply. They are indeed which is why asked for an expert opinion. If its your own money and the Ariya Evolve87 is 5.000 eruo cheaper than EV6 LR, 7000 cheaper than Model 7 LR- would that swing . PS like your stuff
Why on earth have they put the charge port on the front wing?
I can't see any advantage in putting it there, only disadvantages.
According to Nissan two, saving costs in internal cable length and less charging losses due to a shorter overall distance from the port to the on board charger and then to the battery.
Black gloss doesn't fade to grey, blacl plastic does! So it will continue to look good as long as its kept clean, just like normal paint! 👍🏻
It’ll have so many fine swirls/scratches it’ll dull over time. Just look at a black car after a few years.
@@ElectricVehicleMan you need to maintain it !
Hey EVM, like your channel. Quick note, I tested the Ariya. In fact, I only test sit the drivers seat. Can‘t lower the seat enough without touching the roofline with my head. I‘m 6,2 feet though, but common. Went for the Model 3 instead and got proper space. Kind regards. Ronny
Correct me if I am wrong but don't Nissan and Renault share manufacturing platforms now? Would that make it a Renault Megane E-tech too with a slight difference in body design? That black wheel arch trim is it just painted or the piano gloss plastic? Think your right it wont stand the test of time and would have been better off with recycled plastic versions. Not sure why all the manufacturers are reintroducing that awful piano black trim inside cars again!!! Remember 10+ years ago all your TV's and Stereos had piano gloss black. Thought we had moved on from that. My 2013 Kia Sportage has perfectly decent black, satin style, plastic trim that has proven both hardwearing and practical (doesn't show scratches and finger prints!!).
Nissan are Renault are, I believe, about to part company, and one might assume any discussions regarding this may have been ongoing for a while. So I wouldn't pin any hopes on this car having the latest Renault EV tech.
yeah this and megane is built on same platform like the ioniq 5 and ev6.
But the megane is smaller, its a class under the aryia.
Position of the chargeport is a deal breaker for me. I can see it being a real pain at chargers with short cables or if you can't find a charger with a plug on the left side of the car. Should be left or right rear corner or middle of the front.
Agreed, although right rear means using a Tesla SuC on the wrong side effectively blocking two bays, left rear is ideal as it matches a Tesla EV’s location. Front & centre works for me with my Honda e when charging at a Tesla SuC. I won’t buy another EV that doesn’t have the charge port front & centre or left rear.
It will be difficult when/if Tesla open everything to the rabble.
Nice ariya.
Starts at 46K really is that the future of EV ownership is basically 2 X the price of a basic ICE. Maybe I should ask my boss for a 100% pay rise so I can afford the future.
There won't be any new £23k basic ICE's after the end of 2029 David...... New MG4 starts at £26k.
You're right this isn't a 46k car. A Porsche macan is that price (almost 50k)
Pay the same for a Nissan? No thanks.
But inflation is rife, what can you do.
Once the lithium supply chain ramps up prices will come down, but we've had a bump in price due to demand.
@@Brian-om2hh will buy myself another Ice before then my current one is 13 years old.
Personally, happy to sweat our 2 x diesels lol.
2 years before covid we got a fully spec'd Nissan Qashqai for 11k. With 23 thousand on the clock. We do less than 6k pa miles.
Lunacy. I can only assume the global master plan is to price ppl off the roads in the name of co2.
Could I afford an EV in this price bracket? Yes. Would I have a 40-50k drive ornament...no..just no
@@stuartburns8657 I doubt it. The government rakes in billions each year from the motorist. Why would they want to get rid of one of their most reliable and consistent income streams? What advantage or benefit would it offer them? How might they recoup the lost taxes?
£45k. It's no wonder these don't sell in great quantities.
Sold out in the US and canada, Japan has over 10K deliveries planned as well
How do you know? Did they even start delivering it?
@@itekani Japan and Europe deliveries have started. US and canadian pre-orders are closed as demand is huge and they don't want year plus waits. Nissan says (CLAIMS) Deliveries of the ariya start october/november in the US
@@justinbyers7472 I see.. Well I live in Sweden but I have yet to spot one in the traffic here. Have to check if they got one at the local dealer at least.
@@itekani Maybe, I'm not sure how Sweden is having theirs handled, I know Norway, Germany, the UK and some parts of Spain have had deliveries begin
How much!?
Hmmm - a bit bland. Does the back seat fold down, and can you lie down in the back? Don't like invisible bttons, give me physical switches! Once again the direction lever (can't call it a gearshift) is back to front. Back for forward, and forward for back! I'd be tempted to unscrew it and swap the wires over!
Does this mean that there will be some deals on this car
Doubt it, demand for EVs is higher than supply = no sales to my mind
A year later and some of the lease deals are incredible
I would be concerned that Renault are pulling out & selling their shares of Nissan. This is £750+ per month payment. When the Qashqai is far cheaper, who will be buying this? Actually love the look of it but I feel it will be a sales flop because it is £10k too much.
Nissan doesn't need Renault but Nissan is beneficial 2 Renault PERIOD!
@@indomitablereasoning2875 OK... Nice to hear. But I still don't believe Nissan will exist 10 years from now. So I will not buy one
@@mikadavies660 believing is the usual enemy of knowing, no wonder you don't know.
Qashqai is not an EV so it's like comparing apples and turds...
@@itekani Thanks but being a Mechanical Engineer I do believe that I know an EV from and ICE vehicle. You might notice that I chose another "similar" sized vehicle and... Wow! Its also a Nissan! One at £750/mth the other around £350/mth. So if you were in the market for a brand new car, would you be tempted by the latest EV or a far cheaper vehicle that has good mpg?? But you were being to interested in trying to jump down my throat that to actually stop for a moment and think about the point that I was trying to make! Clearly it would be nice to go EV... But not for double the monthly payment... REGARDLESS to the running costs. People look at "per month" not "total ownership"
Why are no EV manufacturers adding security cams, like tesla cam, to their cars? At the very least they should have pre cabled usb-c connections or whatever to the front and rear of the car so that once can buy 3rd party dash cams
Same as any car. EV or not.
Paddles for regen are cludgy. E-pedal/one pedal driving is king. Unfortunately Nissan had to find a way to screw itself and nerfed it in the Ariya. It was first in line to replace the Leaf, well now it won't unless Nissan fixes it by the time the changeover happens.
Always enjoy when 2 of you make a video. After driving my ioniq 5 for 7000 miles which I really like but as a car fanatic thinking of my next car already this Ariya became the finalist compared to the devastatingly degrading battery combined with boring interior id4, bulky and low powered Enyaq, punchy but crashy ride ev6- not the fan of the back design,again crashy ride and ugly model Y with crazy insurance premium,basic interior no buttons not for me
The Ariya offers the best value for money many extras compare to competition, stylish and spacious interior,futuristic design, will go for 4wd, Evolve Sunroof, great performance,heat pump clear winner around £40k asking price, barely used low mileage .
All the best and looking forward to your next review
I love it
Yes, it is badge snobbery. Would a Tesla Model Y be raise the same 'overpriced' criticism? I actually like the Ariya AND the Model Y, but I currently drive a Qashqai, so I have the brand loyalty thing going on.
No full one pedal drive 🥲
Whys the black gloss going to be grey? Silly comment.
They dull over time. Just look at a black car after a few years. Is it still shiny?
Didn’t think this needed explanation.
🤔7:09 the question stands: will it at least severe hand? 😂
So really what you're saying is it should have been an infiniti rather than a Nissan?
Plus, the cost of the car doesn't matter anymore, it's all about the monthly payment. If it's only an extra £50 a month, then people will pay the extra for that nicer interior!
Cost does matter. All evens out at the end. More you pay per month, less you’ll need at the end. (Or more you’ll have towards the next).
Infinity brand closed a while ago.
@@buncho64 Only in Europe, it's still very much alive in China and the US
I’ve seen the 63kwh at 6k down and £499, that is pretty good
It’s gotta be called Boba Fett with a front like that. 😊
All that money and they don't even paint it
I would buy one for surre
This car is 2-3 years too late to the market. Back then with only the first MEB as direct competition, NISSAN could have sold many of them. Now it is only another mid-size SUV with mid of the pack performance and a rather too high price.
It will be a hard sell, but if you are into Japanese EVs, it might also be the best you can currently get.🤷♂️
Hence Renault selling their share in the company and Nissan share price just 6 dollars
I test drove this , Ionic5 and MacE.
Really liked the Nissan but proved to expensive.
I ended up ordering the Qashqai e-power.
A good 10 grand less
I looked when these were released and a base Ariya was 8K more than a fully loaded Qashqai
My friend from Toronto visited me. He rented a Model 3 from Turo. It turned out the Model 3 was brand new at the time we picked it up. To make the long story short, Model 3 is way overrated. It’s plane jane boring. The beautiful glass roof is not useable. It can not be opened. What a waste. Anyhow, Model 3 has a lot of shortcomings.
I am still waiting for my Ariya with Pearl White with Black roof top. Should be arriving next month in CA.
Enjoy looking at the buttons while waiting for the single non-broken EA charger to be free while I’m watching Netflix in my Model 3 with minimal waiting at the supercharger.
@@FriedChairs Dude, SuperChargers here in Orange County, CA are jam packed. I’ve seen Teslas at EVGO. We have plenty of 100 Kw and 350kW chargers.
Enjoy your Netflix, kiddo!
Well…wait til 2025 models… cant make this a point for tesla over competing brands
Driving a 60k car and saying buy the one £15k less because this one is nice but expensive & it'll what, be as nice inside? Did you drive the lower spec one?
60k
Optimistic and with monthly deals evaporating I could see them selling 0
It’s not far off inside for lower spec, I wouldn’t pay £15k for the upgraded interior.
Unless there's a family of these coming, why pitch your only EV against the best of the rest? I guess this is the segment where you can make the most money, but that's only if you can sell the things.
The Ioniq 5 will charge at 300 kw at the beginning of a charge where the battery is near empty and then decrease that charge over time as it reaches full capacity. The Ariya supposedly charges at a consistent 150 kw from 0-80% and can therefore charge faster than an Ioniq 5. No experience myself of this information, just the blurb that others have put out and probably worth verifying.
The charging time for 10-80% for the Ariya will still be nearly twice that of the IONIQ 5 on a 350kW charger.
Maximum charging rate of an Ioniq 5 is around 230kW.
Very nice but the price
Imagine the price once the coming hyper inflation kicks in fully around the world.
I guarantee you the other European competition will not be as refined and reliable as this. Even Tesla's build quality is inferior to the Ariyas. Nissan has years of data collection through the leaf in order to manufacture this vehicle.
I does make you look particularly diddy, sorry. I’m not sure what it is about the front end, it’s just massive!
I think it's too blob. Interior not bad. Still fed up with SUV
Come on China we need your vehicles.
& hope the prices drop dramatically.
The buttons are not visible in the sun and they are all over the place. Some here, some there.
Biggest problem its an ev that was supposed to come out 2020 but they didnt update the specs so its already outdated ish. The interior is nicer then id4 but id4 is cheaper and have more space in the boot. If your already spending over 50k on an ev might aswell get a model y with frunk and bigger boot and faster charging.
Yeah I agree the big battery version is too close to the Y in price, and others like the Koreans outshine it i think.
No thanks. Drove a tesla for the first time yesterday (already didn't like the look of them) absolutely hated driving that thing. Never again. Yall can have tesla.. give me the Ariya all day.
Would rather the seven seat kia sorento phev.
Saw a test, ariya can go about 30km after 0%.
Why would you want to store anything of importance (like cables) under the boot floor ... Hissing down with rain and you have to empty the boot to charge the car ... H'mmm
It’s rare you use them, rapids are all tethered which accounts for almost all outside charging.
Thats why a frunk is great :P
Too damned expensive. We had a leaf but now looking to move away from the legacy manufacturers who quite honestly are taking the P**s with their pricing. I am now looking at manufacturers like MG offering 7 year warranty and massively more affordable cars. They are not the only Chinese manufacturer on the way. Current european car makers really are going to have to up their game. Lets not forget most of the tech is just off the shelf stuff that they all use and are mostly made in China anyway.
Lovely looking car but I wouldn’t spend my own money on it. This is why I chose it as my next company car. I will save near to £200 per month in tax compared to my current company car and the charging is paid for by my company. Winner all round! I hope………😅
That's pretty much the issue I have with it. Nissan just haven't evolved the Leaf anywhere near as much as they ought to have done in the time it's been on sale. In fact the Leaf now trails behind it's competitors terribly. Given Nissan's lack of EV progress previously, I'd be worried this car was all glitz and glamour, but underneath just wasn't up there where it ought to be.....time will tell.
How have they not figured out yet that nobody wants weird touch style buttons. Just give us actual switches and buttons that work.
Literally knew I'd never buy this car as soon as it showed them
I like them, really easy to wipe clean and yes I own the Ariya.
@@st200ol easier than actual buttons? Hmm
@@fenderman21guitar For me yes way easier. Quick wipe over with a microfibre cloth dampened with APC and it’s done.
@@st200ol you are talking about ease of cleaning though, not ease of use while driving yeh?
Nice but pricey.
Insanely expensive
A great color for the Ariya...
Why did you edit opening and closing the tailgate!
Oh good another expensive SUV in a world with the MG4 available. Not impressed with the efficiency either.
The first mass market EV maker has not, for me at least, moved anything on sadly, I'm sure it'll find some buyers though, it's built well at least.
The issue may not be the MG4 but the MG Marvel R when it arrives in the UK.
Aaaah my pet hate. Why does it have a gear stick when it just needs a forward and back switch. I particularly hate that you push the 'gear stick' forward to go back and back to go forward. After over 2 years with a Zoe it still bugs me; is it must a ploy to get us to drive into stuff and so make money out of repairs. Particularly when doing a '3' point turn this is an issue.
Haven't Nissan recalled all Ariya's as wheels keep falling off
No, that’s Toyota with their BZ4X.
@@ChrisdyMD
Ok thanks
I thought it was one of them
Sorry Nissan
Rear wheel drive Tesla Y in France costs Euros 48,000. I am handing in my Nissan Leaf 62 kWh for the Tesla. I've looked at all the others and there is no competition to the Tesla Y.
MG top spec EV is a lot cheaper and you get a lot more.
Others dont have 22kw charger.
When would that be a benefit?
@@ElectricVehicleMan In Finland we have lots of 22kw chargers in shops and smaller towns. You dont have to find quick charger if you can charge at 22kw at work stops. At home I can charge at 11kw and if needed I can change my fuse bigger so I can charge at 22kw at home too. There is three-phase current everywhere in Finland.
If there is a line to quick charger, you can use 22kw charger instead.
Oh look lot's of unnecessary electric motors and servos to break... Can't help but think that the car makers are adding loads more pointless crap that will go wrong to keep their dealers in business without oily bits to fix.
Are you standing a long way from the car or is it muhassive?
You are right though, it has got a big butt!
I think the IONIQ 5 makes this a bit DOA if I'm honest, way better to look at and better priced
Wasn't too impressed with IONIQ close up. Lots of cheap plastics and gimmicks. Not something you'd but with your own money IMHO. Prefer the look of this Nissan but need to do the close up check first.
@@colinhare4722 The Ariya even in base spec is very nice inside. For me though the boot was too small - for a car this size it's very pokey. The car is also inefficient on the motorway meaning that you really want the bigger battery, and that is very overpriced (needs to be competitive with I5, EV6, ID4, Enyaq, but isn't)
Ioniq 5 exterior with Ariya interior would be a good combination
@@micgent I5 exterior seems a bit marmite. I like it but my wife hates it. She actually saw one on the road and said "urgh, what's that?" before we started seriously thinking about cars. It was the first thing we ruled out!
@@micgent at MG price
Spot on. Prices too high which is why new cars (Esp EV's) are not selling. Forget the nonesense re lack of semiconductors. Of course they are also not climate nice until they have done about 120 000 km (Volkswagens own data). Am sure in a few years time someone will spot the emperor with no clothes ie net zero. Just down 330 miles in my 5 series diesel and another 280 to run. Nowhere on my route or stay could use an electic point without wasting so much time public transport would have been quicker. Don't get taken in.
I’ve been driving EVs for 8 years now. Would never go back to fossils.
Test drove one but I'll be going for Ioniq5. Too pricey, competitors much better. Did you know free charging at Tesco finishes at the end of this month...........
Be careful if you comment on this video there seems to be something a bit the same reply to all comments is posted with a Dodgy looking WhatsApp address. Doesn't look like EVM!
£45000 i couldn't afford a basic Nissan. Wtf way to expensive. Can't believe i couldn't afford a basic electric car.
I know car designers love cheap, glossy, black plastic on the inside but now we have it on the outside as well - at least it is unlikely to attract fingerprints. Looking at the interior and the lack of the nasty black plastic maybe the production team decided to move all the plastic to the outside to meet some production quota!
It is a large SUV, a style of car that the vast majority of people who buy it would be better served with an estate car or in some cases MPV.
It is a great car but the long range version is £50+K, sorry Nissan but that is massively over priced even by EV standards
Nice to see car manufacturers responding to the austerity crisis. I know I sound like my grandad, but this particular sector of manufacturing has, in my view, totally lost the plot. Still, as long as we keep buying them ……..
The leaf was ground breaking and affordable, but what is this, other than yet another expensive clone car. Come on Nissan, we don’t need another indistinguishable overpriced over-specced car. Let the Germans do that, and concentrate on what you do best.
£10K overpriced.
BMW 3 series is 10K less than the base price Nissan no contest.
Issac should have named it ?
The Log 😂😂😂
You forgot the ongoing free option that Nissan offers anyone who doesn't like their car or features thereof, you get put into a Japanese Prison for free! Just make sure you have a big music case. ;)
Thanks, each to their own, but it looks ugly to me. Spend just a little more and get an EV6, if you can wait forever.
It seems manufacturers are in a compeition to out ugly one another.
When the base version costs more than a mid-spec Ioniq 5 with a couple of options,... It's a sad no. There's no way it's worth its money.
