Charge, Range
& Battery

As battery technology advances, range increases, and charging becomes more convenient, more drivers than ever are going EV. As the manufacturer of the world’s first mass-market electric vehicle, Nissan is at the forefront of the electric-driving revolution. As your local Nissan dealer, Palm Springs Nissan is your partner on your EV journey – from sales and service to the many benefits and perks that come with making the switch to 100% electric driving.

Range options for your Nissan EV1,2

Travel further on a single charge

Nissan's EVs offer a variety of battery sizes which power different ranges. The 2023 ARIYA is available with two battery options – one 87 kWh and one 63 kWh. The ARIYA VENTURE+ 87 kWh battery version has an EPA estimated range of up to 304 miles.3 The 2023 Nissan LEAF also offers two battery options with the larger 60 kWh battery offering an estimated EPA range of up to 212 miles on a single charge in the LEAF SV PLUS version. The LEAF’s range is up to 149 miles with the standard 40 kWh battery in the LEAF S.4

Both vehicles offer Eco Mode – a feature that boosts the vehicle’s already impressive efficiency. On downhills, use B-Mode to capture and convert braking energy into charge that's then returned to your battery.

Electric vehicle charging 101

Easy EV charging


Charging your new EV is simple.2 Follow these steps at any compatible charging station:5

 

Nissan ARIYA

  1. Park your Nissan ARIYA and make sure the vehicle is turned off.
  2. Open the charge port lid and cap.
  3. Plug the charge connector into the charge port. When done correctly, your EV lets you know with a quick beep. 
  4. When the battery is fully charged, your Nissan ARIYA stops charging on its own. 


Nissan LEAF

  1. Park your Nissan LEAF and make sure the vehicle is turned off. 
  2. Turn off the vehicle and press the charge port release button to open the charge port. 
    1. The vehicle can be turned on immediately after 
    2. If the charge port is open, you can plug the LEAF in while it’s on and it will begin charging 
  3. Plug the charge connector into the charge port. When done correctly, your LEAF lets you know with a quick beep.


TIP: An EV battery optimally charges when it has a charge of over 20%, but below 80%.1 

How long does it take to charge an EV?

Charging your EV has never been faster or easier


For many electric vehicles, including select models of the Nissan ARIYA and LEAF, using a quick charge station can provide up to an 80% charge in under an hour.2 However, several factors impact how fast an EV charges, including the type of charging station you're using, the vehicle's battery capacity and maximum charge rate, and even environmental factors like temperature. 


While there's no one specific answer, there are key factors that will help you determine the best EV and charging options for you. At Palm Springs Nissan we’re happy to discuss EV solutions that suit you best.

Level 1-3 charging1

Three levels of charging


Utilize a Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 charger depending on where you are and what you need. Learn the difference between the three levels and how your ARIYA or LEAF can charge conveniently at home or on the go.2

Level 1 charging


In a pinch? Plug in to any 110-120-V 15-amp dedicated outlet for charging. Level 1 charging is exclusively for at-home use. Most electric vehicles, including the ARIYA and LEAF, include a Level 1 charging cable. These cables draw power from a common 120-V outlet, adding 2-5 miles of range per hour of charging.1

Level 2 charging


Level 2 chargers are utilized both in-home and at public charging stations. Professional installation is required for Level 2 home charging. These units draw power from a dedicated 240-V, 50 amp outlet, adding 10-25 miles of range per hour of charging. As a result, Level 2 charging requires much less time than Level 1 charging to charge an electric vehicle from empty to full.1 

With Level 2 charging, the standard range 2023 ARIYA ENGAGE FWD can fully charge in 10.5 hours (up to 216-mile range); the extended range 2023 ARIYA VENTURE+ can fully charge in 14 hours (up to 304-mile range).1,3 

With Level 2 charging, the standard range 2023 Nissan LEAF S can fully charge in 7.5 hours at (up to a 149-mile range); the extended range 2023 Nissan LEAF SV PLUS can fully charge in 11 hours (up to a 212-mile range)1,4,6,7

Level 3 charging or fast charging1,2


Level 3 charging, also known as fast charging or quick charging, is the quickest way to charge your EV.3 Level 3 chargers use direct current (DC) power for expedited charging of the 2023 Nissan ARIYA and 2023 LEAF.   

There are thousands of 480-V public DC fast charging stations across the country. With Level 3 fast charging, the 2023 ARIYA can charge from 20-80% at the following rates:1

- 35 min 63 kWh battery; 130 kW fast charge1

- 65 min 63 kWh battery; 50 kW fast charge1

- 40 min 87 kWh battery; 130 kW fast charge1

- 90 min 87 kWh battery; 50 kW fast charge1

The 2023 Nissan LEAF can charge at the following rates at a Level 3 480-V public DC fast charging station:2 

- 40 minutes, 40 kWh battery 80%; 50 kW fast charge1

- 45 minutes, 60 kWh battery 80%; 100 kW fast charge1 

- 60 minutes, 60 kWh battery 80%; 50 kW fast charge1

Other factors that impact EV charging time

Battery capacity, charge rates and environmental factors can impact charging time.
See customer discloser form for details.1

An electric vehicle's battery capacity is typically determined by its size. In general, batteries with smaller capacities will take less time to charge, while batteries with larger capacities will take longer. However, increased capacity batteries provide more range and require fewer charges.

In the same way that there are limitations based on the specific charge point's rate, each vehicle's maximum accepted charge rate impacts the speed at which it can receive power. This means that an electric vehicle will only charge at speeds up to its maximum charge rate, regardless of the charger used.

Certain environmental factors, such as outside temperatures, can impact how quickly an electric vehicle will take to charge, as batteries are sensitive to severe heat and cold. To avoid damaging the battery, an electric vehicle's battery management system will automatically slow down charging when extreme high or low temperatures are detected.

Charging on the road


Charging an electric vehicle at a public charging station is as convenient as charging at home. Most public charging stations simply require you to swipe a credit card to get started. Some stations will recommend you download a mobile app and create an account to begin the charging process. If you have a Nissan ARIYA, just download the MyNISSAN app instead to access the entire NISSAN ENERGY Charge Network of over 100,000 in-network public chargers, including compatible Tesla Superchargers. 1,10,11,12
