WE KNOW CHANGE MEANS QUESTIONS
From charging to range and the cost of running a Nissan LEAF – we know that when you choose to go electric, there is plenty to consider.
HOW AND WHERE TO CHARGE
CHARGING
Charging the Nissan LEAF is simple. You can charge it at home using the supplied cable, use a Rapid Charge Port or install a home charging unit.
COST OF OWNERSHIP
PRICE
Because the Nissan LEAF uses no petrol or diesel, filling up drains very little from your wallet. In fact, you'll be surprised by the savings you make once you go electric.
HOW FAR DOES IT GO?
RANGE
The Nissan LEAF’s impressive range will more than cover what most people need for a day’s driving, with up to 155 miles from a single charge.*
*Based on New European Driving Cycle (NEDC). Range figures are obtained from laboratory testing and intended for comparisons between vehicles and may not reflect real driving results. Actual range may vary due to driving style, road condition, air conditioning and other factors outside of our control.
SOLUTIONS THAT HELP YOU SAVE
THE BENEFITS OF GOING ELECTRIC
Buy an electric car and say goodbye to petrol and diesel. Oil changes and maintenance of complex mechanical components will also be a thing of the past. That’s because the Nissan LEAF hatchback doesn’t have an internal-combustion engine or a traditional gearbox, so it has far fewer moving parts. You'll spend less on maintenance and enjoy far lower fuel costs thanks to the difference in electricity cost compared to petrol or diesel.
PLUG-IN CAR GRANT
£4,500 GOVERNMENT HANDOUTS
The UK Government offers an incentive for buyers of Ultra Low Emissions Vehicles. This grant covers up to 35% of the value of the car, to a maximum of either £2,500 or £4,500 depending on the model. This is automatically deducted from the price of your car. The scheme heavily favours buyers of 100% electric vehicles over plug-in hybrids, which combine traditional combustion engines and fuels with electric motors and battery technology. The 100% electric LEAF hatchback qualifies for the maximum £4,500 discount, while plug-in hybrids will only receive £2,500.***
LONDON CONGESTION CHARGE
QUALIFY FOR 100% DISCOUNT
Cars that are registered with the DVLA and have a fuel type of 'electric', like the Nissan LEAF, do not need to pay the London Congestion Charge, while many other vehicles will be paying the full £11.50 per day. For somebody living outside the congestion zone but driving into it five days a week, each week of the year, this could mean an annual saving of over £2,500.
To benefit from the discount, LEAF owners must register a customer account with TFL and set-up Auto Pay (£10 per vehicle per year).
LEAF AMBASSADOR PROGRAMME
Do you know any proud Nissan LEAF owners? Want to receive a reward? If you’ve answered yes, read on! If a ambassador recommends you to LEAF and you decide to buy you will both receive rewards - it's a win-win for everyone!
SAVINGS THAT ADD UP
Because the Nissan LEAF uses no petrol or diesel, filling up drains very little from your wallet. In fact, you'll be surprised by how much extra you might get to enjoy every month.
FILL UP BY PLUGGING IN
A FULL DAY’S RANGE
Charging at home is easy – with a dedicated mains socket or a home charging unit installed, you simply treat the Nissan LEAF the same way you would your phone. With a 32A home charging unit and the optional 6.6kW on-board charger you get a full charge in about four hours and a range of up to 124 miles for the Nissan LEAF 24kWh – or in five and a half hours and up to 155 miles with the LEAF 30kWh.** While you’re out and about in your electric car, there's a growing network of rapid chargers, giving you an easy option to stop and top up along your journey, allowing you to travel even further.

Where it all started
History
The LEAF is the latest chapter for Nissan in a history that spans decades of research and development. The story stretches back to the 1970s, when we revealed our first battery-powered car. We continued developing electric cars throughout the 1970s and 1980s, and in the 1990s adopted the lithium-ion battery – the precursor to the third-generation batteries that drive today’s LEAF. When it comes to electric cars, nobody can rival Nissan’s leadership and expertise.
