Copenhagen, DENMARK (09 October 2025) – The Nissan LEAF – the world’s first mass-market electric vehicle when it originally launched in Europe in 2011 – is back, signalling Nissan’s determination to be at the forefront of electric innovation.
Proudly built in Britain, at Nissan’s world-class EV manufacturing site in Sunderland, the all-new third generation model has hit the roads for the first time in Copenhagen, boasting an elite level range of up to 386 miles alongside a sharp new look, integrated technology and a host of new driver assistance features.
“The all-new LEAF is the embodiment of our DNA here at Nissan: smart, sleek, stylish, and ready for the next generation of EV drivers. With a top range of 386 miles and connected technologies, it delivers the convenience and excitement our customers demand,” said Clíodhna Lyons, Region Vice President, Product and Services Planning, Nissan AMIEO. ”As we continue to level up our electric offering in Europe and the wider AMIEO region, the new LEAF represents exactly what our customers are looking for.”
Aerodynamic Design
Designed at Nissan’s Global Design Studio in Atsugi, Japan and built at Nissan’s Sunderland Plant, UK, the all-new LEAF presents a dynamic crossover look that blends aerodynamic efficiency and visual impact. With a drag coefficient of just 0.25, the car’s clean, flowing appearance not only looks sharp and brings a real presence to the road, it also supports the model’s excellent 386 miles top range and its general efficiency.
Supporting its sleek and streamlined look, Nissan LEAF boasts a host of upgraded exterior features, carefully engineered to catch the eye and confirm that our zero-emission masterpieces don’t skip on style, including:
- Flush-mounted door handles
- Sculpted surfaces and flowing roofline
- A unique 3D tail light signature
- Optional 19″ alloy wheels with aerodynamic styling
- Dimming panoramic roof with subtle LEAF-embossed detailing
The cabin inside is spacious and family-ready, including up to 437 litres (VDA) of cargo space. Power liftgate and roof rail options add flexibility, while seven expressive colour choices – including signature Luminous Teal – ensure the Nissan LEAF can be personalised to suit families, commuters, urban explorers and weekend day-trippers alike.
Elite Range of 386 miles and Smarter Charging
Two battery options – 52kWh and 75kWh – offer a range of 271 miles* and 386 miles (WLTP) respectively, giving drivers more confidence with an autonomy that’s amongst the best in the segment. The 75kwh version features a range of up to 269 miles at 70 mph on the highway and an energy consumption as low as 4.5 miles/kWh, ensuring longer journeys can be accomplished with fewer charging stops. When you do need to plug in, the all-new Nissan LEAF supports 150kW DC fast charging, recovering up to 273 miles in just 30 minutes.
At the same time, Nissan LEAF is equipped with Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) capability, with up to 3.1kW output for hooking up small devices like laptops in a pinch, or cooking gear when out camping. In the future the LEAF will Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) ready, enabling energy to be returned to the grid when available.
EV Performance with Advanced Driver Assistance
Built on the CMF-EV modular platform shared with the Nissan Ariya, LEAF delivers engaging yet comfortable driving. The suspension – MacPherson at the front and multi-link at the rear – ensures a smooth, agile drive across city streets and motorways. Driver-centric features include:
- e-Pedal Step for smooth one-pedal driving
- ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link for adaptive cruise and speed-sensitive automation
- 3D Around View Monitor with 8-point perspective with Invisible Hood View and Front Wide View to navigate narrow urban spaces
- Regenerative braking with paddle shifts and distance control assist for energy recovery while decelerating”
At the heart of the Nissan LEAF is a refined electric motor delivering clean and responsive performance – 215hp of power and 355Nm of torque power the LEAF from 0 to 62mph in 7.6 seconds (Sport Mode / 75kwh battery). With 4.5 miles/kWh miles energy consumption, all-new LEAF ensures effortless driving with maximum efficiency.
The Nissan LEAF is equipped with a suite of advanced safety and driver assistance features, designed to support confident driving in all conditions. From Intelligent Emergency Braking and Blind Spot Intervention to Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Lane Keep Assist, Nissan LEAF is engineered to deliver peace of mind. Additional features such as the 3D Around View Monitor, Invisible Hood View, and Front Wide View make parking and navigating tight spaces easier and safer.
Built for the Connected Driver
At the heart of the LEAF’s connected experience is NissanConnect with Google built-in, delivering seamless integration with daily life for the modern driver. This combines:
- Google Maps featuring In Car Route Planner for intuitive navigation and automated charge journey planning
- Google Assistant for hands-free control over navigation, media, climate and more
- Google Play Store for apps, streaming, and productivity tools
Inside, twin 14.3” screens (cluster and central) help form a fully digital cockpit, while the connectivity app (NissanConnect Services app) gives remote access to battery checks, climate preparation, and journey planning, ensuring the LEAF is as connected outside as it is inside.
Coming Soon
Nissan LEAF will be manufactured in Sunderland, UK, using 20% renewable energy. Production and pre-orders to start before the end of the year, with first deliveries set for Spring 2026.
