There’s never been a better time to go electric. Discover the many benefits of driving an all-electric vehicle like the All-New Nissan ARIYA or the Nissan LEAF. The ARIYA and the LEAF are not hybrids, instead, they get the energy they need to drive the electric motor between their front wheels from the large lithium-ion battery mounted along the floor of the car. Charging is as simple as charging your cell phone: plug it in, and let it go. Below are 8 other reasons to own an electric vehicle like the Nissan ARIYA or LEAF.
1. ZERO GAS, ZERO EMISSIONS
The Nissan ARIYA and Nissan LEAF burn absolutely zero gas, so they produces absolutely zero tailpipe emissions and no engine noise. So forget gas stations and put emissions testing behind you — in the 100% electric Nissan ARIYA and Nissan LEAF, they’re truly a thing of the past.
2. INSTANT ACCELERATION AND FUN
There’s nothing quite like 100% electric driving. There is no power band – just straight power for a rush of instant acceleration every time you hit the pedal. And all this performance comes without so much as a drop of gas, absolutely zero tailpipe emissions, and amazingly smooth operation.
And the Nissan LEAF is just as much fun through the twists and turns. The floor-mounted battery pack creates a low center of gravity for a great ride and smooth handling, helping the Nissan LEAF corner with minimal body roll.
3. NO OIL CHANGES
Nissan ARIYA and Nissan LEAF aren’t powered by an internal combustion engine, so there’s no oil needed for lubrication, and no oil changes required to keep them running smoothly. Ever.
4. NO TUNE-UPS
Spark plugs, timing belts, fluid top-ups—forget about them. The Nissan ARIYA and Nissan LEAF are 100% electric, so get used to less maintenance, and less hassle.**
**Nissan recommends tires rotation every 7,500 miles. For more on the ultra low maintenance LEAF, check the Service and Maintenance guide for the recommended service schedule.
5. HOV LANE ACCESS
When the majority of commuters get stuck in stop-and-go traffic, your Nissan ARIYA or Nissan LEAF could potentially gain you access to HOV and Carpool lanes.***
***HOV/carpool access varies by state. Please consult state laws for eligibility.

Daily Savings is the Nissan LEAF® Daily Cost (miles driven daily /Nissan LEAF® MPGe, multiplied by cost of MPGe) subtracted from Daily Cost (miles driven daily / MPG, multiplied by the cost of gas).
