I'll always appreciate how well you guys show what you're talking about. When you mention the brake pedal moving by itself, my mind goes "oh oh oh lemme see lemme see" and ofc, a perfect StraightPipes clip demonstrating exactly what you guys were talking about comes next. Not just that, the touch screen issues, the rocking back and forth, you guys always do such a great job putting your thoughts to reality. Feel like sometimes it goes unnoticed, I really appreciate it!
Love my Ariya. Had it since February, I don't feel it's expensive but I guess most do which Is fine. With the "expensive " cost and low production on them I love that I'm basically the only one with it. Only seem 1 other person with one. I get compliments especially on the green color I got. Lady followed me in the grocery store to ask me about it a few months ago lol. Was charging next to an EQS SUV today and the girl asked to look inside it and liked my car and I got the number. 😊 Don't even need game with this car it speaks for itself 😅 Hope the raise the price or stop making them so I can continue my fun and being different than the tesla cars on the road. Having so much fun. Best car ever!
Yep. We love our Ariya too. It took me a week or so to get used to driving it, but now that I am, it's super smooth and controllable, and I have no real complaints about it (e.g. I don't make it bounce when stopping like they did in the review, and I have no issue with the steering, I have as much power as I ever need with the FWD, etc). As for price, we were undecided vs. EV6, Ioniq 5/6, or ID.4, and the prices of the trims we wanted were all very similar. The Ariya was notably nicer & more comfortable than the Ioniq or EV6, and while the UI isn't great, we liked it a lot more than the ID.4. So, we're quite happy with ours, and wouldn't trade for any of those.
Aw! Sorry to hear that. Glad though it sounds like none of you were hurt. We haven't really considered any time wasted so far. Mostly we don't need to anything other than plug it in at home, so we're saving time over having to ever put gas in it. And on a road trip, I like having a bit of a break. @@XpR74
@@StefQc2k It's just applying the brake pressure slowly/evenly enough. I only bounce on a very sudden stop, and I don't need to do that often because I drive in eStep mode and am leaving enough distance ahead of me that I'm generally mostly using regen braking to slow and stop, which also gives better energy efficiency. Many things about driving the Ariya have gotten a lot better for me the more I've driven it and gotten used to it and developed my feel for how best to apply the pedals.
Arina charging is lower peak power, but it holds that peak longer. So the charging time on 10%-80% is still quite good. And you can use cheaper 150kw max stations to do so.
@Trainer Red agreed. Only thing I didn't like was the low range, and low profile tires. Oh God I've never had so many pothole induced flats before. The car drove excellent and was reliable tho.
@@GaryKetchum808yea the tires were super thin and skinny. Handling and ride quality were not that good. I just wouldn't consider buying the i3 over the Nissan Leaf, Honda Clarity, Chevy Bolt, VW eGolf, Prius, etc.
It looks nice, has decent range and tech. It has a nice flat fast charging curve, which is better for long charging sessions as it makes it more predictable. But that's not very good if you want to go charger hopping. That's where you only charge enough to reach the next charging station with roughly 10% battery. Tesla's, Ioniq 5, EV6 and Taycan's are great for this because they hit peak rates aright after plugging in. So if you want to charge to 80% every time, the Ariya is fine. But if you want a quick
RUclips Actually played the Nissan Ariya ad while I was watching this video. First time that has happened for a vehicle review where an ad for the very same vehicle came on.
Why didn't you guys mention the Model Y at all ? lol It's still the best due to the charging infrastructure and Tesla has the whole "quirks" of reliability figured out haha
Yesss, Ioniq 5 ICCU is a major, major problem that seems to be impacting a large % of the cars as they reach the 1 year mark. The ICCU fuse will blow and leave you stranded, unacceptable risk for me with a toddler.
I have a revolutionary idea you can pass along to any interior designer you run into. Put the infotainment screen on some sort of gimbal so that it doesn't move with the car when driving, it floats like a steadycam. I'm willing to bet it would way easier to use the touchscreen. You're welcome.
Come to think of it you could do all that in software so easily. Just a couple of accelerometers and simple software. Some one prototype it, patent and make millions.
Chinese market luxury cars are already putting the screens on robotic arms so they turn to face whichever front occupant is using it, stabilization doesn't sound like a massive step from that.
It is a great design inside and out (except for the needlessly complicated tech), and I hope they sell a ton of them. Nissan is on a roll and they need this to succeed so it's nice to see they put out a great effort. "Cement Grey" is everywhere and joins the group of too many other 'greys'. Sad. The original Nardo Grey on the Audis started it all (I think) and it seems like all Civics are covered in it now. Blah. You guys do a great job of reviewing cars and I always tune in. Keep up the good work!
The dealership near me had one AWD Ariya for sale at 56k. I just don't understand how they want folks to move into these cars when they cost over fifty thousand dollars.
I doubt they can make large number of these vehicles at this time. In the dinosaur-fuel world, Ford is totally incapable of satisfying demand for the Mavericks. The story is they did not think it would be so popular.
I just purchased a brand new 24 Ariya evolve plus dual motor/AWD, for 20k below msrp (32k is what I paid). For that price I had no real choice and I like it, to boot.
@@TheStraightPipes Honestly we hit the climate button to full screen it and adjust the climate there. I really don't even think about using the sliders. It's my wife's car and she isn't a tech nerd like me, and so I think it's more than fine for regular folks. I know earlier models had issues with the infotainment system, but hers works fine. She had been using android auto, but now she just uses the built in navigation. Again me being the tech nerd I think android auto is better, but she's fine with the stock system. Maybe you guys should start incorporating your wives, sister, mom's, or a female friend that isn't into tech to give their reviews on daily drivers.
Fr, worst part about this channel is the climate control and screen stuff whining, I just skip that section at this point because its just complaining. Other than that great though!
I've been saying for about two years...this is the best looking EV...I have not changed my opinion so far. I would detest the lack of physical, logical knobs and buttons for hvac and radio. Some slightly older Subaru Outbacks drain their 12v batteries if not used daily. Same issue with a friend's 2021 Toyota Venza hybrid...drain their 12v battery. LOL.. He just traded for a 2023 4. Runner to get Toyota's OLD tech, before the new model.
What is your problem with the VW ID.4? you guys have an irrational hate for an otherwise decent electric suv. Is it the fastest to 60 or while charging, no. Is it the cheapest amongst family-oriented A segment crossovers, no. But every single video you bash it. Here, “the Ariya doesn’t feel slow like the ID.4 does”, well gee guys they pull the same mid-seven second time, etc… I’m not an ID.4 owner, but give it a rest fellas. How about some well researched and planned content?
I have an id.4 for 2 years and it’s been great. I drive around 50 miles back and forth everyday for work and not once has it let me stranded. With 30,000 miles on it I would say that’s pretty reliable. the stuff your complaining about window switches and temp controls isn’t a big deal in reality. The car is one of the best value Ev’s for around $40,000 with tax credit. Y’all are tripping.
5:09 to 5:39 I don’t know why but Nissan Ariya look pretty and also the interior look so way future the button the gear shift and the driver steering look 10/10 😎💯👑
Got a commercial for Nissan before the video. Lol. I've been curious to see what this thing would be like. I used to sell Nissan, but quit before we got these.
I went to test drive this at my local dealership and it turned out the AWD version they had didn’t work because it had a bad 12 v battery and they need to get a new one from Nissan. They said they’d call but I haven’t heard back. I didn’t like the capacitive buttons on the dash, center console and steering wheel. The lantern effect might look nice at night but in the daylight it looked cheap which is a problem because this is an expensive car. I saw it on the freeway a few days ago and I thought it looked great. It has a volume knob and a rear wiper so they didn’t get everything wrong.
I agree; it may not be the most attractive, but at least it has some personality, while this Nissan just has the typical modern overdesigned/busy/shiny/aggressive look.
The "Ionic 05' 12 volt battery issue SEEMS to be related to the HUGE information requests OTA. There is a fix now/on the way. And NO EV owner should travel anywhere without a small 12volt jumper pack. My Kia Niro[2019} has the nasty habit of draining the 12volt battery with the inside lights off, if I leave the doors open for a length of time, as in home car wash, detailing day. That is my only gripe.
This is what Hyundai wants folks to believe, but there is really no way for the API requests to cause the ICCU fuse to blow while driving. Hyundai also claims they’ve fixed the API call issue and limiting it to like 30 a day, yet 12v batteries keep dying. There are two issues at post. The big one being ICCU failure.
It's just a drop-down bin in the car they were testing and not the fancy motorized hideaway storage accessible via button. I can't tell if it's lacking in Canada or something, because they had the top trim AWD model.
@@mikefarrington7141 no, theirs was the top trim fwd version. I don't think that it would be exclusive to the awd version though so it's probably just a canadian thing
It is frustrating looking for an EV SUV. I have a Model 3 already and don't wanna just buy the same car again. But trying out all these other EVs and looking at their prices, the Tesla is soooo much better at everything. Wanting to trade my Leaf for this, but they ask for too much and squandered their EV lead in the last 10 years. I guess i'll have to wait a few more years and keep my 20 Mile range Leaf lol.
Exactly the same situation. There's really no good alternatives to Tesla that I can find, and I don't really want another Tesla. Service is a nightmare, also I don't want two of the same car.
Price-wise, Hyundai shouldn't be your benchmark vs Nissan. Hyundai has always been a lower tier brand, for a different market. In exchange, the ownership experience is less predictable. Nissan is more comparable to Ford and Toyota, so that's a better price comparison
I remember very well the fanfare that was about the Ariya a year before it came out as a concept - looked great, awesome numbers. This is not the same thing, disappointing. The ID4 is way better btw. also as the Toyota. Nissan has a EV a decade on the market with Leaf. How can they miss that much the market?
@@Cosmycal based on every comment I’ve seen you post on this video, it seems more like you’re trying to cope that you waited 9 months for an under-ranged, fairly ugly, electric Nissan
So this car makes no sense to buy in the United States. You can get an all-wheel-drive Tesla model Y long range that qualifies for the $7500 rebate. And you get a better warranty on the vehicle. Nissan is missing the mark on this one big time.
This was shoved down my throat in advertising. The motto was, don’t buy an EV for the E, buy it because it pins you to your seat.. cringey… then the GTR update… what are car companies doing?
No, the pedal movement, which is only present on the highest regenerative braking setting on, it's because that setting blends mechanical breakes under some circunstances too, like when the battery is full, to give a consistent regenerative braking force everytime, no condition dependent. So in that setting the pedal moves back and forth to physically represent the equivalent amount of mechanical brakes a each given time. If you want only regenerative braking withoit mechanical brakes blending you've to use B mode instead and the brake pedal will never physically move.

When you mention the brake pedal moving by itself, my mind goes "oh oh oh lemme see lemme see" and ofc, a perfect StraightPipes clip demonstrating exactly what you guys were talking about comes next.

This car has been so hyped up. They had RUclipsrs advertising it. Every YT video had an ad for it. What a flop.
Here in EU Nissan can't cope with demand with the Ariya, long waiting list, definitely not a flop, had to wait 9 months for mine.
@@Cosmycal based on every comment I’ve seen you post on this video, it seems more like you’re trying to cope that you waited 9 months for an under-ranged, fairly ugly, electric Nissan
Actual range is gonna be more like 220
Mine does in fact more than 300 miles daily, even 320.
@@Cosmycal congrats you made a ev go further
That reverse sound is the same as my Leaf!
This cars look, have grown on me.
Looks like a futuristic Nissan Murano
The best thing about this car is the lofi ad Nissan put out.
ngl i really like the design
I like the look of the Ariya but the price will keep a lot of EV buyers away.
Sounds like Nissan should have cut the marketing budget and sent it to the designers and testers. They have been blasting this car like crazy!
I am eating a chicken bake from Costco and literally chokled when the i3 passed it with the Bugatti 😅
I wonder how many times you changed the title on this video.
3 so far
So this car makes no sense to buy in the United States. You can get an all-wheel-drive Tesla model Y long range that qualifies for the $7500 rebate. And you get a better warranty on the vehicle. Nissan is missing the mark on this one big time.
Dare to be different. You might like it 😉
That i3 had no business in this but made a statement 😂😂😂
Ironically enough, a Nissan ad played for me before the video started.
The dash looks like it’s made of Trex decking.
Way too expensive in Canada and a 18 month wait time?? No thanks ill get a Tesla the same month
This was shoved down my throat in advertising. The motto was, don’t buy an EV for the E, buy it because it pins you to your seat.. cringey… then the GTR update… what are car companies doing?
😂🤣
Maybe the brake paddle movement has something to do with then brake light situation
pedal
No, the pedal movement, which is only present on the highest regenerative braking setting on, it's because that setting blends mechanical breakes under some circunstances too, like when the battery is full, to give a consistent regenerative braking force everytime, no condition dependent. So in that setting the pedal moves back and forth to physically represent the equivalent amount of mechanical brakes a each given time.
If you want only regenerative braking withoit mechanical brakes blending you've to use B mode instead and the brake pedal will never physically move.
Spacious interior but not much to get excited about, especially considering the price.
I'd definitely get the Model Y. Nissan missed the mark with the pricing. I was expecting 5 to 8 grand more than the Leaf.
This is a completely different beast than the LEAF.
I need 10% of each sale 😂
I have always found te Leaf to be okay looking, like I dont get why people find it so offensive
Looks like a Murano dressed up like a robot for Halloween.
Plump and geeky.
