The 2026 Nissan Leaf has undergone a complete transformation, shedding its hatchback body to become an imposing electric crossover. Based on the CMF-EV platform, shared with the Nissan Ariya, the new design is more aerodynamic and modern, featuring fluid lines and sharp LED headlights, signaling a new era for the iconic vehicle from the Japanese brand.
One of the most significant advances is in its performance and range. With a 75 kWh battery, the 2026 Leaf promises to reach up to 303 miles on a single charge, a remarkable leap that makes it highly competitive. The fast-charging power has been tripled to 150 kW, drastically reducing wait times, and the inclusion of two charging ports (NACS and J1772) offers unprecedented flexibility.
Inside, the vehicle has been completely redesigned to provide more space and technology, featuring two screens up to 14.3 inches with integrated Google. With a competitively estimated price around $30,000 and a robust standard safety package, the 2026 Nissan Leaf positions itself as an extremely strong and versatile option in the growing electric SUV market.
