Nissan Leaf 40 kWh summer range test: 245 km/150 mi

- I did a summer test of the new Nissan Leaf 40 kWh. Due to limited time and also limited fast chargers, I could only discharge 63 % of the battery. The range of 245 km/150 mi is estimated based on that. This car has a WLTP range of 270 km. So my result is just 91 % of that one which is not too bad.
I estimate that winter eco range is about 200 km/125 mi as well as summer motorway speeds. The average speed in this test was around 80 km/h, 50 mph. This basically means that the current Ioniq with 28 kWh (approx 31 kWh gross) has the same range as the new Nissan Leaf. The reason is that Ioniq is more efficient despite having smaller battery.

I have been listening to your videos for awhile, I want you to know that I have ordered my new 2018 Nissan Leaf, you have helped me to switch from a gas powered car to an electric, thank you, from Quebec, Canada
+gp2003gt Wow, awesome!
Found out I'm taking delivery of my leaf in the first week in march! \o/
Got mine last week, Its great!
my sincere commiserations
bbbf09 Best vehicle I've ever owned, sadly you'll never know ;)
Thanks for the useful info Bjorn!
Thanks for the video man!
Great video with great content! Thank you very much!
Just what I expected, and confirms our decision to buy the Ioniq. It's sub-zero in the UK right now and the Ioniq is doing around 120 miles on motorways. The faster charging time is a bonus too!
Thank you for the video
Bjorn have you tried using max battery mode to warm ur battery and try to supercharge?
What do you figure the range will be in a cold Norway winter? (-10c to -15c) 150km?
Great car it seems
Hi Bjorn,
first of all, congratulations for the victory in the consumption contest :)
Now, with a consumption of 137 Wh / km, and a battery pack of 40 kWh, how do you come to 245 km range? The plain division gives out 292 km (no safety taken into account, right)
Thanks for the video, and greetings from southern France.
PS: did you try and sleep in the new Leaf?
40 kWh is gross capacity. I estimated net capacity (available energy for driving) to 36 kWh. The consumption number in Leaf doesn't seem to take in account regen energy. During my descend in the battery challenge video, I mentioned that despite gaining 2 % SoC, consumption showed 0.1 kWh/100 km. That number should have been negative. The estimated range in my test is therefore based on driven distance and SoC consumed.
Hi again, Bjorn. Ok, I did not expect that much of a reserve (4kWh, like 10% of the raw capacity). Thanks for the precision, and hope to see soon more videos from you on the new Leaf, like life on board, interior and space, dB measurements compared to others maybe, motorway driving at various speeds, and naturally can-I-sleep-in-the-new-Leaf :)
Keep cool, and greetings from southern France
Bjørn Nyland
Hi again Bjorn. So, counting on a regen of about 20% of the energy (is this assumption ok?), that would lead to almost 300 km range with quiet real-life driving, right? How would you rate this car compared to the Ioniq, which you seem to really enjoy, in terms of efficiency and interior space? Thanks in advance and e-regards :)
Thank you Bjorn, good test ;) you don't charged at 100% ?
No. Explained in the beginning of the video why.
Ok thank you
245 km, but for 77% ? Or it is estimation range for full 100% ?
Thank’s for all of your video, it is nice to watch ! ;).
It's an estimation based on 100 % discharge. You should watch the video. I explain it there.
Bjørn Nyland yes. Thanks. My english is little bad. So was not sure to understand well ;).
I watch again. ;). Thank’s (^_^)
So nett capacity is 33.5kwh??
37
TBasianeyes how could it be 37 kWh? 137 watts/km x 33.5 = 245 km range. If the battery is 37 kWh, then a 245 km range = 151 watts/km not 137 watts.
Bjorn Nyland, Based on your experience with this Leaf 2018 and the e-golf 2017 which one has better efficient and also better interior finished. Thanks from Dominican Republic.
Efficiency is about the same. But e-Golf is smaller. As for interior quality, e-Golf is better. But soundproofing might be better in new Leaf. I have to test the new Leaf on Norwegian roads before my final verdict.
Best should be the ioniq
Man I really don't get this. The leaf is weird. I have an ioniq. 2017. I've done more than 250 km when it was below 100k. Now when the weather is good it shows 250km and j can get 230 out of it even though I've put 180k km on it. I use Michelin energy savers in the summer and Nokian tires in the winter. I don't know why the lead gets less than 300 when it has a 40kw battery and I only have a 28.5
Ioniq was doing better economy because of slightly less speed (80km/h and 122Wh/km) but in cold weather as well. This was almost ideal temperature and conditions to get the best economy possible which is still impressive.
The Ioniq was tested on wet roads and subzero temperatures though. Dry tarmac and summer tires means lower rolling resistance.
oh you are near my country morocco :D
What do you think of that old fashioned speedometer? I think it’s a no go on an EV. The rest is of course a big step forward and especially when the 60 kWh version arrives.
I prefer the digital speedometer. Much easier to read and takes up no space.
Most people prefer analog gauges.
Could you also do some "not-eco" range tests? Like 120-130km/h.
Would be nicer IMO because I don't plan on driving that slow :)
I know it will be difficult for you because of the speed limits in Norway, but maybe you manage it one day :)
Expect 150-200 km range then.
tanzanable Well this is the normal Speed on the Highway (Autobahn) when I drive, that's not speeding
In Germany there is no speed limit on the freeway. Also most countries allow 120 or 130 km/h on the Highway (Italy I know for sure)
In Europe the speed limit on the highway is often 130km/h,much more in different cases.
And the accidents keep being less and less every year
At this point I just think you are trolling, even in the US 130km/h is allowed on the freeway, So have a good day
Don't forget to show us the interior please!
Coming later.
Thank you Bjørn 👍
@fazerjt Yes.
Enjoy "Las Canarias" !!
please do a test on the zoe 41kw !!
*kWh
Yes Yes :P , BTW Hello from India! I love your videoes , we will start getting proper EVs here from 2020 onwards :D , probably The Ionique , and zoe :)
sinkonline I believe he has made a video on it
Is it possible to remotely pre-heat new Leaf when it is NOT charging?
Yes
Bjørn Nyland thx, to be precise I'm talking about the situation when the car is not plugged in. Also correct? Please say few words about the nissan app. BTW Bjorn great channel.
The OLD Nissan Leaf can do this, yes.
What's the heater consumption? And is it a heat pump heater ?
Probably very low. Yes, it has heat pump.
So nett capacity is 33.5kwh? Is that correct?
No, about 36 kWh. Leaf and e-NV200 doesn't seem to count regen energy in the average consumption. I will explain more about this in the upcoming Leaf videos.
Anyone else who had that "AUDI original parts" commercial before the clip? WTF! Audi original parts are probably the single least interesting thing for Nissan EV customers :)
Why not?Just install an Audi logo on your LEAF and eberyone Think you have the New Audi
How was the dinner ?
great
GREAT NISSAN.
Hi Bjorn Which i choose New leaf or 2018 egolf ?
EGolf
At 137 wh/km you should be able to drive 270 km if the car have 37 kWh useable battery capacity
We don't know how much energy is available. I have to do a proper test in Norway later.
Which color is that?
Pearl white
Bit weird though that the Ionic being a 30kWh thrashes a car with 10kWh more...
I wouldn't call it trashing. They are equal on range. And Ioniq has more than 30 kWh. Probably about 31 kWh. Leaf has more cargo space than Ioniq. That's one of the reasons why it is less efficient. So you trade higher efficiency in Ioniq for less space.
Make a video showing the interior and how to use the car
In Two Tesla Weeks.
If you really want to test his car all fully charge it drive it into the battery is drained on to zero!!!And you if you have to call a flatbed tow truck
nice scooter
It's funny your Spanish "no habla" jejeje
...250km is not that good. They should have gone for a 60kwh pack as standard, like in the Bolt :/ ...
The Bolt has less equipment, less soundproofing, worse interior and cost 50 % more than Leaf. Go figure...
Benjamin Jehne 60kw version coming for the 2019 model year.
@Bjorn, It might be worser in case of the quality, but the 60kWh packs are what makes EVs compatible to the masses (in compact cars). So many reach the 500km goal, with the Bolt...
@Damion, thats the best thing, they can go for. The Leaf is and was a sucess, but I think with that pack, they will reach another level of sells... .
Has Nissan leaf remote parking like a tesla summon
nope
Bjørn Nyland ok, thanks for answer
Remote parking will be good with Brilliant Automatic parking
Thats bad range. I would like to have EV but i drive normally around 130km/h on motorway And this test was done at 90km/h. I guess the range would ve then just 150km? It would not even allow me to get to the neearest biggest City. Not to mention my vacation family trip each year around 900km. I would have to charge ať least 5x times having extra 7-8h of journey...still seems a long way to go :-/
+Ladislav svencik Get a Model 3 then. Leaf will do about 180 km at 130 km/h.
My summer rage is 165-170.
How is it possible? So low.

I did 245km with a 2017 i3 REX so Im kinda bummed
