Ownership summary

Verdict:

Nissan Leaf 30 kWh 2015 works best as a FWD electric hatchback for city driving, short commutes and simple home charging. BEVDB estimates about 145 km in mixed use, while cold highway driving is closer to 117 km.

In daily use, home charging takes about 9 h 39 min from 0-100%; on trips, the 10-80% DC estimate is about 26 min (est.), which should make highway stops manageable. The practical side is documented with 5 seats, 370-680 L cargo and 8 years / 160,000 km battery warranty. The main caveat is that road-trip charging is slower than newer long-range EVs. Range confidence is medium, while specs completeness is mostly complete.

Estimates of actual range. The values given here are BEVDB estimates calculated from WLTP data and usable battery capacity, based on the BEVDB model. The BEVDB real-range card uses four fixed reference scenarios: City (Mild), Highway (Mild), City (Cold), and Highway (Cold). Mild means +20°C (70°F) without intensive climate-control use; cold means -10°C (14°F) with cabin heating. City speed is 50 km/h (30 mph), and highway speed is 110 km/h (70 mph). These figures are not official test results. Actual range will vary depending on speed, temperature, road conditions, road profile, load, tires, and driving style.

Estimated charging times are based on usable battery capacity, charging power and vehicle charging limits. Peak DC power is usually reached only briefly; average 10–80% power is more useful for estimating real charging time. Actual charging speed can vary by charger output, battery temperature, state of charge, weather, software and battery condition.

BEVDB model

Combined real range (estimate)145 km
Combined Energy Use (estimate)19.1 kWh/100 km

BEVDB estimates use WLTP-rated (or derived; falls back to NEDC when WLTP is missing) consumption and usable battery capacity to model city/highway ranges; the combined value is a weighted mix of city/highway and mild/cold scenarios. See the methodology and data sources for inputs, official source boundaries, fallback rules, and versioning.
