HOW TO CHARGE A NISSAN ARIYA AND NISSAN LEAF ON A TESLA SUPERCHARGER

EV Channels Review

This video provides a comprehensive guide for Nissan Ariya and Leaf owners looking to utilize Tesla Superchargers. The reviewer clearly distinguishes the charging process for each model, highlighting the Ariya's need for a specific adapter kit due to its charge port design, while the Leaf requires a more complex and expensive CCS1 to CHAdeMO adapter setup in conjunction with a NACS to CCS1 adapter. The video emphasizes that only Tesla V3 Superchargers or later are compatible. While the Ariya's solution is relatively straightforward with the official Nissan kit, the Leaf's multi-adapter approach is deemed expensive and clunky. The reviewer also touches upon third-party adapters (Lectron, A2Z) for the Ariya, noting they lack a specific safety tab present on the official Tesla adapter. The video serves as a practical, albeit detailed, walkthrough for Nissan EV owners navigating the evolving charging landscape.
