EV Channels Review
The Nissan Leaf, a pioneer in the mainstream EV market, receives a comprehensive review in this "Planet Auto" episode, focusing on the 2022 facelift e+ Tekna model. The reviewer highlights its evolution from the first generation, praising the second-gen facelift's sportier, more modern aesthetics and improved platform. Key strengths identified include its surprisingly brisk acceleration (0-60 in around 7 seconds), comfortable ride, composed handling, and quiet cabin, making it suitable for both engaging drives and comfortable family journeys. The e+ Tekna trim, with its 59kWh battery, offers a claimed range of up to 240 miles. Practicality is also a strong point, with ample interior space, a decent boot, and useful features like Pro Pilot and Pro Pilot Park. Minor criticisms are few, including the lack of a footrest and a small infotainment screen, but overall build quality and design are lauded. The reviewer concludes that the Leaf remains an impressive and practical electric hatchback, despite its impending discontinuation in its current form.
