Two electric-powered cars currently offered from Nissan are the Leaf and the Ariya. The Leaf is the smaller car in Nissan's electric vehicle collection. It can be ordered with one of two batteries, including a 40 kWh battery and a larger 62 kWh battery. This battery is paired with a 147 HP gas-powered engine, and the larger battery is linked to a 214 HP engine. At most, you can get up to 226 miles of total combined range with the Leaf. The Leaf also comes with semi-autonomous driving technology. The Nissan Ariya has an impressive touchscreen made of glass that spans the dashboard. The Ariya also has a digital display screen that provides the driver with real-time information on the car's performance.

Hybrid and hybrid plug-in vehicles have an identical mechanical configuration. They are rigged with a gasoline-powered engine and an electric motor, which gets its power through a battery. Hybrids use gasoline and electricity equally for power, while plug-in models rely primarily on electricity and switch to gasoline as needed.

The range you'll get with an electric Nissan varies. With the Leaf, the minimum range is 150 miles with the smaller battery and 226 miles with the premium battery. The Ariya will get 300 miles of combined range.

Several charging options are available for your Nissan. On the go, you can recharge up to 80% of the Nissan's battery with a DC charger. The Nissan charges in four hours with a 240V outlet and 10 hours with a 120V outlet at home.

When properly equipped, the Ariya gives you 1,500 pounds in towing power.
