2nd generation
The second-generation Nissan Leaf (ZE1), launched in 2018, brought sharper styling, a more spacious cabin, and greater practicality to the pioneering electric hatchback. Standard models pair a 40 kWh battery with a 147-hp motor for roughly 150 miles of range, while the Leaf e+ variant adds a 62 kWh pack and 214-hp motor for extended range and quicker acceleration. Nissan's e-Pedal enables one-pedal driving, and ProPilot Assist adds semi-autonomous steering, braking, and acceleration support. Inside, a modern dashboard, upgraded infotainment, and improved materials elevate everyday comfort. CHAdeMO fast charging remains standard, allowing rapid top-ups. Practical, efficient, and refined, this generation solidified the Leaf's role as an accessible, mainstream EV choice for commuters and families alike.
