Looks like a really nice upgrade. The Ariya was competitive, too, and this looks like a decent step up for the Leaf.

end of Nissan is near. This new Leaf won’t save Nissan.

Nissan's state-of-the-art production facility in Sunderland, northeast England.
avoids the 25% tariffs. Cool.

What is it with these high belt lines and ugly black plastic cladding all over the place? This "tall car" look is so awful.

It looks like some people like it and some hate it, very polarizing.

This might be the early signs of a "cult like" followimg for this car. 😀

I’m surprised on the quality in the areas that only appear on luxury cars. Like felt covered wheel aches in the boot and the storage trays in the rear
