2022 Nissan Leaf S

The 2022 Leaf is Nissan's all-electric hatchback, a practical EV that competes with the Chevrolet Bolt and Hyundai Kona Electric. It's a calm, easy car to drive around town, with a smooth and quiet ride that suits daily commuting. The cabin is roomy for four adults, and the hatchback body gives you a useful amount of cargo space. Standard tech includes a touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus a suite of driver aids. A smaller battery and the lowest starting price set the S apart from the SV and Plus trims, making it the most affordable way into a Leaf. Its 149 miles of range from the 147 horsepower electric motor is enough for daily errands and short commutes, and the instant torque makes it feel peppy off the line. The S rides on 16-inch steel wheels and skips the heat pump and quick-charge port that the SV adds, so expect slower DC fast charging if you road-trip.
