The model
Read full Nissan Ariya reviewThe Nissan Ariya is a well-equipped and practical electric SUV available with a choice of two battery sizes. However, plenty of rivals are better to drive and can charge up more quickly. The entry-level 63kWh Engage represents good value, but we think the best version of the Ariya is the 87kWh Advance, which has a competitive range between charges and is very well equipped.
The trim
See full equipmentIf you want your Ariya to come with all the bells and whistles, Evolve trim takes everything you get with Advance trim then adds a glass panoramic sunroof, adaptive high-beam assist for the headlights, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a head-up display and an upgraded Bose stereo with 10-speakers. It's very pricey, though.
The engine
See full engine specsThis is the front-wheel-drive model with the larger 87kWh battery. It’s nearly as swift as the smaller battery pack car, and has a much longer range of up to 329 miles. We reckon it's worth the extra.
