The driving is where this car truly shines! The rest of the reviews, may not be so positive, but time will tell. Also, please keep in mind this is my very first experience in the car - I shoot these videos to bring you along for my initial impressions - more detailed videos to come with all of the nerdy info you’re looking for soon. ⚡️
Kyle, keep in mind that in the Europe we have 22 kw AC charging 😁
Just for a quick heads up. The lane change system only works on Pro-pilot 2.0 mapped roads, so while the car is in "Blue" mode which is hands on it will execute auto lane changes with the lane button, or you use the turn signal to do a lane change.
The 19 inch wheels ride a lot quieter than the 20s. The charge curve is super flat and will out charge an ID4 on Bjorn Nylands charging tests.
Also the motor Torque Vectors along with the brakes
The E-Step system is definitely a small annoyance due to no true 1 pedal driving but the vehicle does have OTA firmware updates available so maybe they will update it in as a selectable setting.
If it is the first experience and not knowing the features and 10-80% charge speed, then why so negative ?
Finally I received my e-4orce platinum 2 weeks ago. I don't drive faster than 65mph. I am getting 320 miles on full charge. Extremely happy. Wonderful job Nissan.
The top spec at $60k+ definitely is a hard sell for this car, but the mid tier ones around $45-55K compete quite well with ID4, Q4, and the Hyundai/Kia stuff
Nice to see Alyssa again!
Max charging rate of 130kW is only part of the story: Bjorn found that the 87kWh Ariya was still pulling 81kW at 80% SOC! Ariya’s flat charging curve (like E-tron’s) makes it a potentially better road-tripper than the modest max charge rate would suggest.
I believe it's at 85% SoC
But still tho
Model Y for similar price giving faster charging speed even without using supercharger site
i saw that review on that channel and agree
The ride quality is far superior than the MY. It’s very quiet and plush. I don’t care too much about charging speed.
I own an Evolve + trim. I had given friends who own Model Y Performance a chance to test drive my Evolve+, and they all said the Ariya drives nicer (Lexus quality).
@@marketbuy I would agree.
I just test drove this car some days ago on the interstate out in San Bernadino, California and it was by far the best experience I've head against the EV6 and the Model Y. The heads-up display showing things like the speed on the windsheld during nights makes for a very futuristic sense of vision!
Interesting, do you know what the efficiency was?
Great to see Alyssa back in the videos and that she is still apart of the Out of Spec team. Relationships are hard enough and everything is enhanced when it’s in public under a spot light. ❤
I think it's because this was done prior to the breakup
She still works for them. He said in the video that he explained the new relationship.
@@jasonfournier thanks. I didn’t catch that only about his new girl.
@@jasonfournier What video was this?
Hi Alyssa!
I disagree on the charge speeds. If it saved money and put this closer to 35k, they could’ve used a 24a charger since you’re pretty unlikely to find or want to install a 40a home circuit for ev charging. So size it for a 30a circuit or go higher to 40a for 50a circuit. However, 60 and 80a are beyond overkill and borderline useless. 80a is the full breaker panel for some people. Sure, for suppling power there may be an argument but 80a/19.2kWh ac is pretty silly. Even a 16a 240v charger can deliver about 100 miles of range over 8 hours.
Nissan has a history of putting a WOT restriction until 40mph on their ICE vehicles. Removing that with tuning really wakes them up. Interesting they did it on this as well.
I own the FWD Premiere edition & am waiting to take delivery on the Platinum+ spec. I completely disagree with Kyle's assessment of the AC charging. I've owned mine for 6 weeks and I've never had to wait for the AC charge to be completed. It was always exactly what I needed when I needed it. Personally, I think that Nissan has been ULTRA conservative with their battery management of the Ariya due to everything they've learned from the Leaf. I wouldn't be surprised if after a year Nissan ups the charging limits to 150 kW DCFC with basically the same charging curve once they're able to test how well the battery operates under load for long periods of time.
I'll be very interested to see what Kyle's thoughts are on the charging after a few tests & living with it for a week.
Cancelling the blinker in the opposite direction is more intuitive. People who are transitioning to EVs will be far more likely to be familiar with this mode, which I’d imagine is what Nissan is going for.
I really don't like the "return to center" stalks. They save the manufacturer the cost of a couple of spring detents but they introduce another problem to be solved - how to cancel. Manually returning to center to cancel is by far the most intuitive.
USB A is a great option and is still very commonly used. In fact, I don't understand why other car manufacturers think everyone has trashed their USB-A to USB-C cables and think of putting in USB-C plugs only.
its called future proofing
Tesla’s price cuts have really kicked this car in the testicles
The Teslicles!
@@0-Will-0 LOL!
And Tesla owners in the pockets with the steep depreciation and devaluation. For every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction.
I disagree with you about your AC charging rate of 30 amp being inadequate. For most people, they will be doing that overnight and generally will not be going from empty to full so it’s more than fine. For instance, on my model, Y I just charge usually at 16 A, with my average usage of about 150 miles over three or four days. So I can usually charge from 20% to 80% just using 16 amp charging although I could increase it to 32 A on my level two. Slower charge rates are better for battery life.
I agree with you. I have a 40 amp Grizzl-E EVSE that I haven't yet been able to hardwire yet, so I've instead set it down to 24 amps and plugged it into a NEMA 14-30 plug with an adapter. Charges my car just fine. It's not really necessary to go beyond 30-40 amps unless you're planning to get a MASSIVE battery car like a truck, where you need at least 48 amps to get performance similar to 30 amps on a smaller vehicle. I think the real problem here is the price: they really should be discounting it against other vehicles.
I agree with you too. Just having 220V in the garage is enough for everyone. The point being is that 110V is not useful at all, and should be avoided at all costs. Any existing 220V will work, and if installing new service just have a 220V 50A socket installed and get the most economically priced EVSE you can find, install an oven whip from Home Depot if its a hardwire design and plug into socket.
Same, I never AC charge my Model 3 more than 32A. I wonder if the 30A onboard charger is the max it can sustain or if it's ~24A (80 percent rule).
I charge my EV6 with a 60A. Why would you settle for this in 2023 at over $60K? Japanese have not figured out EVs for some reason. Go for Korean or US EV makers right now. This is a piece of technology like a smartphone, not a car. The companies best at tech are winning (US, Korea, China).
@@zeethree as you said, it's more the price that's the problem. 30 amps on a $20-30Ks EV? That's fine. 30 amps on $40K and up? That car better give me a blow job over night while I wait
Okay, the Ariya is a different beast. I have the Engage, and it's really quirky with e-step. The faster you remove your foot, the faster it gives you more regens. It clearly is not a Lucid Air or Tesla Plaid. It is just not built for that. It is designed for staying in a large city. It is designed to get you from point A to point B in a fun, sporty way. In the Eco mode, it can extend range by 100 miles. I can charge mine from 10% to 100% in 35 minutes. You can go ahead and charge it at home in about 5 hrs to prepare it for the morning. My car was 44k, and the Tesla Y, which had similar options, was 65K. Also, it will auto-change lanes in certain trims. Now with 10 trims, lol! Now, imagine what that beast will do when Nissan comes out with the performance model with a projected 200kWh battery and a 350kWh charging system. Nissan is smart. They have had the Leaf for years. Nissan moves slowly and methodically. Nissan has basically given up on super-fast hot rods. If you go 0-60 in 2 seconds, you can get a ticket for laying drag in my town. If you want more backseat room and headspace, get the Enguage, not the platinum, because of the roof, it takes up 3 inches. Also, the front-wheel drive has a bigger truck space.
The owner’s manual is a great resource for answering questions about the functionality of the new car that you are trying to evaluate. Maybe take an hour or two and actually read some of the owner’s manual for future reference on test drives.
It’s just my first experience with the car where I share my initial impressions. Detailed analysis comes next 😊
@@KyleConner True, but you still need to understand some of the things that make the car safe like lane centering and the ability for the car to change lanes hands free.
@@KyleConner then you shouldn’t be so judgmental on first review.
To be fair, most professional reviewers don't read owner manual, they simply don't have the time.
Owners have more time to familiarise themselves with the details.
Not canceling the turn signal in the same direction you turned it on is exactly like a tesla... its a negative here, but never heard kyle mention or care about that in a tesla, just saying. Just went outside to check my model 3.... up is to turn right, it cancels by pushing down. and down is to turn left, you cancel by pushing up. Exactly like this Ariya.
I was just watching Alyssa’s facial expression the whole time 😭
So was this filmed before or after she found out about Anna?
@@yhfsywfit I honestly didn’t know about the situation until you said this and i watched the porsche taycan delivery video. Not my buisness I like all of them. Just here for the cars.
@@wetzel82 you’re a better person than I am 😂
@@yhfsywfit can you spill the tea? Who is Anna? Was he cheating on her with another girl?
In the UK we don't have all the crazy trim levels you guys have, we have Engage, Advance, Evolve, & Evolve+, the latter three have the option of FWD and E-4orce, which makes it way easier to see the difference between trim levels. I have to say that the difference between Advance and Evolve is huge, with Evolve you get the sunroof, heated and ventilated front seats, the Bose sound system, the moving centre console, the electric opening storage, the HUD display, the rear view mirror screen, and many more. I take delivery of my Evolve E-4orce this Friday, its a fully maintained lease deal. I have to strongly disagree with some of your points, especially the charging speed, the Ariya maximises the charging curve, which is pretty flat as others have mentioned, in the real world the Ariya charges pretty much at the same rate as other so called faster charging vehicles.
This must explain why I saw 2 Ariya’s available sitting on my local dealer’s lot. I don’t hate it. I just don’t find it worth the cost. If Hyundai can get a handle on their vehicle fire issue, I’d ideally like to try out a Tucson or Santa Fe hybrid.
10:55 while all of my devices are usb-c now, almost all of my cables are usb-a to usb-c. Sure I can buy new cables but it’s nice to have usb-a port options.
Hard to believe that someone would choose old usb a standard in a modern car and also wanting old hybrids. But we are all different
I had my grandparents Cadillac Deville Concours for some time in high school. Had the front bench and of course my friends who sat in the front thought it was hilariously to slam the gas pedal since it was easily reachable
What a hoot to bomb around in a Deville! Must have been great HS years. These days, families live out of Devilles.
Excellent review thanks for taking me back to 2019.
I wouldn’t trade my Ariya for any of the new wave of cars, these other car makers rushed to market. Nissan has been making EVs that sold well for over a decade, I loved my Leaf. It was always rock solid. I’ve driven all the rest, hard pass.
On the 135 kw DC fast charging max rate, I remember last year Nissan addressed it by saying they're taking an e-tron approach and aiming for a consistent , flat-as-possible curve. I don't know how true that is in practice, though.
From what I’ve seen on tests, it holds ~125 KWh like a champ, all the way to 80% until it starts to ramp down. The charge curve is super flat.
@@steveallwine1443 that's actually not too bad! How long is the to-80% time?
Looking forward to testing! Went last night to do the 0-100% and the charger failed 10 minutes in. We’ll go again tonight
@@Necrotron i have seen around 35 minutes i have also seen in 0 c go from 2% to 80% in 38 minutes
@@Necrotron it’s consistently 30 to 38 minutes depending on how cold it is. Nissan electrified did a lot of charge testing and Bjorn did a charge competition with the id4
Super review, love the detail and explanations.
Just wow. Great review guys. This helps me a lot to inform people around me that are less at ease with electrification. Continue the incredible work.
Can't wait to replace my Leaf one of these just have to wait about 5 years to afford it lol
Alissa is back missed you in the videos you need your own out of spec channel 😊
I think this video was filmed awhile ago. He's dating someone else.
@@Emily09876g She still works with Kyle, they just aren’t romantically involved any more.
@@Emily09876g what? Really?! They’re done??
I can not believe how expensive this car is. When it comes to the AWD the Ioniq 5/EV6 have it beat by a few thousand but you can’t get one of those in a decent timeframe,we know why you can get an Ariya much quicker. Nissan needs to address their pricing or be left in the dust.
ionq5 and ev 6 cost around 60k
@@ryansherman4556 That is true, the Ariya loaded is $69k that is model y money which is makes choosing the y an easy choice.
@@jasonblair4057 nope the ariya is 63 out the door not 69 and the model y need a 12 k upgrade to match pro pilot 2
@@ryansherman4556 Ah, I should have said I was configuring one here in Ontario, Canada. Out here too spec without a list of options is the same price as a long range model y.
Might sell a fair number of these to those not planning to road trip much and want a Japanese car as well. 🙏 ❤❤❤
In Europe the onboard charger is 3 phase 32A = 22 kW (Type2 connector) 🔋🔌👍
NOT standard in all markets, like the Renault E-Megane, optional in some EU countries, and not possible on lower spec models.
It seems like there was quite a bit of engineering conflict going on with this design. The Ariya could have been something special, but instead, it's more like a Detroit-built EV where too many design teams were making too many conflicting decisions that negatively impact the final production variant.
And perhaps more than a little paranoia about customers wanting EVs to feel and drive like their ICE cars (i.e. no true 1-pedal driving). It’s like when Ford et al bury the SOC% display deep in the Infotainment, as if they think their customers are too stupid to handle the mental math required to competently drive an EV.
Interesting video. Car looks great on the outside. The electric motor whine and road noise is some of the loudest that I’ve heard in your videos, very annoying.
From an ICE perspective I don’t think I’ve ever had a turn signal where you would go up twice to turn right and to turn it off. I’ve always had to push it back to center to turn it off, unless it did do it and I was just going on mental habit.
Great video although it would’ve been nice if we could’ve had another camera angle from Alyssa to see areas of the infotainment system not captured by the mounted cams. No one pedal driving & lack of tax credit sucks
love the way this car looks with it's "Kumiko" accents. admittedly after 2 generations of Leafs, I didn't really think much of the Ariya when it was first being shown (ref: last year's Super Bowl commercial '22) but now that I've seen and driven one it's damn impressive. my tester was a FWD, small battery with an MSRP of just $44,525. rebate or no rebate that price is MORE than worth paying just for the "added value" of NOT associating oneself with the Teslarati or Elon Musk. fortunately I have plug-n-charge in my driveway and the two EVGO stations near me are both brand new and work just fine (4 miles away just got upgraded BTC's and the one 8 miles away is a new Delta/Signet install). only really use them for loaners but they exist.
Hey at least it’s better than the bz4x/RZ, good first attempt?
In the U.K. we only have three choices. Advance 63kw fwd. evolve 87kw fwd. eforce 87kw awd. Evolve has 22kw a.c. Charger
Your AC voltage makes a big difference.
On my 08 audi TT you cancel indicator opposite way, its normal
NO EV gives full power from the stop. A channel of your format SHOULD KNOW THIS! You mistake that with torque.
Power is proportional to torque times RPM.
As there is only a single gear the RPM directly proportional to the speed.
So it is the most normal thing IN THE WORLD to not have the full power until a certain speed.
As soon as you are at the point of max power (which in this case is about 40MPH ... as is with most EVs) the torque falls inverse proportionally to the RPM rising. This creates a flat power curve until the RPM limit of the motor.
Torque is limited by the amperage the motor and inverter can handle.
What Nissan should have done to prevent this misunderstanding (even seasoned EV journalists as yourself are falling for) is to report the percentage of the available torque produced at that RPM/speed.
Nissan just decided to provide very limited torque and gently torque rampup ... And this is probably done to keep cost for the power electronics (mainly inverter) in check.
The more torque should be delivered, the more copper is needed in the motor and the more MOSFETs or higher quality MOSFETs are needed in the inverter.
Another thing is durability of the car overall. High torque at low speeds shortens the life span of differentials, drive axles, suspension arm bushings, and so on.
So ramping the torque softly makes sure the car holds up during waranty.
This is something the Hyundai Kona and Kia eNiro is also known for. These cars have a waranty of 5 and 7 years and thus it falls on the manufacturer if the car rips apart itself.
How bad this is can be seen with the amount of suspension defects in Model 3 and Y ... sometimes worn out after less than 30.000 miles.
ID4 3.02s 0-30 mph (50 km/h really),
Ariya 3.76s according to Teslabjørn's test...
Both were non-awd though, the Nissan had 20 % better power/weight ratio.
So they released the car as if it was 2018!. I agree with you, it's not packaged properly, no interior space, no frunk, no trunk, no spare, no super chaarger, no smart pricing, no high quality, it's all the cons of EV
Sandy Munro should wash their heads
ALYSSA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The new Nissan Aztek.....errr, Urea....errr, Ariya.
I believe you already know this Kyle but you still can get the tax credit on this vehicle it just has to be through a lease not a purchase. Unless they have changed that recently?
Think I shall keep my Model 3LR if you don't mind.
Lack of full one pedal driving is a deal breaker for me.
Imagine all the years of vehicle manufacturing without one pedal driving oh the horror.
@@PineApple-bs8rt I’ve been enjoying one pedal driving for several years now and it’s great. Most EVs have it so I have plenty of choices besides the Ariya. But I get what you’re saying. It’s definitely a first world problem and not a huge deal but it has become a preference. Sort of like power steering. Cars didn’t have it for years, but if a new car came out without it, many people would consider that a deal breaker.
Surprise no other one mentioned the slow pre 2015 charging or the very low mileage
It's intentional to protect battery longevity. Rapid DC charging will degrade the battery quickly, but some automakers encourage that so they can charge you for replacement. Next time, think carefully why Nissan regulated charging speed.
Tax credit isn’t a big deal. Nissan is giving equivalent rebates. Also the complaint about the turning on the car seat warmer, their is a little icon on the bottom left or right of the screen that turns it on. And that is on every screen option you press. Out the door price for me was 39k after rebates (I got 8k. Nissian customer, financing through nissian, and a dealer rebate). for the evolve + e4 force AWD.
Poor storage, no back seat room, high price, slow charging, no one pedal driving and poor range considering battery size. Thanks for not sugar coating the review.
hard disagree on USB-A, I don't have a single device that doesn't use it. I'd have to get all new cables.
Value wise I’m glad I got a Bolt EUV premier with super cruise
Rofl, hey what do you think of this mass produced new electric car?
"The stitching on the back passenger seat is coming apart, so not very good" Someone could have damaged that at the port, dealership, or reviewing it.... smfh
I have had several Nissans over the years, simply because I was able to get family discounts. One thing I have noticed on the whole Nissan lines including Infiniti, is that they are always so far behind on technology. At least 4-5 years. It just drives me crazy to see that. I am a tech nerd and am attracted to shiny objects. Nissan really never has had very many shiny objects. With that said, reliability of their lines I have never had issues with. Just not much fun to drive.
If they are 5 years behind the average, and Tesla is 5 years ahead, ohh boy doesn’t look good for Nissan
@@bartwaggoner2000 except Tesla 5 years behind on build quality and service.
the 2023 Infiniti's I think have caught up (finally).
@@petehelme7714 Yeah, I'm liking the new stuff, I just wish they had a manual offering for the Q60. I can understand the number of manuals they would sell would not be worth it, maybe now that the Z35 is out they may eventually offer it in a $pecial edition.
re: "Nissan really never has had very many shiny objects." Nissan GTR: "what am I a joke to you...?"
The leaf was such a legend people our hopefully this will be
Nissan removed the RED colour option from the Ariya.
How did you get one?
There was never one. The platinum+ came in only 4 colors if I remember right.
ALYSSAAAAA 😍👏👏👏👏👏 oh yeah, ariya 🙄
Probably still better than bZ4X 😅
Most of the serious testing puts the Ariya miles ahead of BZ4X. See Bjørn Nyland and Fully Charged for details. Will be interested to see the rest of the tests by Out of Spec too. Kyle can directly compare to his BZ4X charging test.
Very nice looking external, esp like the wheel covers. Too bad with that huge sub taking up a lot of space in the trunk. With no frunk and mini trunk space, they blew the function this car is targeted for which is touring and road trips.
Maybe a fail in most regards, but at least the wheel covers are nice. How can I resist?
Is Nissan passing on the $7500 EV lease credit? If so, perhaps lease and early exercise of the purchase option is a possibility.
Question? I heard you say something quickly about plastic parts scratching your leg. Can you please elaborate? I know the center console can be slid backwards and create more legroom. Does the plastic part on the floor where you can charge a phone with the wrap able wire scratch your thigh?
I imagine he must manspread for some reason….
Having bought a 2022 ID4 this year I can say no thanks to this. My ID4 has a EPA range of 250 miles but it’s less than 200 miles in the winter driving at 70mph. Manufacturers must build vehicles with 800V architecture if they want people to be happy with their purchase and not wanting to go back to the ICE. They all don’t need to give you whiplash when you mash the fast pedal.
I'm a former Nissan LEAF owner... But for this car, the small rear seating area (eg, leg room) and slow (relatively to newer EVs) are definitely major drawbacks.
It's a nice looking car but should be priced like a Niro or Kona EV
That ugly crap is not in the same competition.
I grew up when Datsun branded cars were the answer to affordable, reliable and fuel efficient transportation. I never would have thought that in 2023 they would have strayed this far from their core competency. RIP Nissan Datsun.
Wow ccs port very futuristic of them to move away from the chademo port
Tesla and Hyundai/Kia EV tech continues to embarrass just about everyone else that tries (outside of the high end segments).
I would have preferred if this was their versa philosophy in crossover EV form.
The "mercedes" pedal is a deal breaker.
To summarize, Japanese brands are at risk of losing their grip on the Automotive industry. North America, China and and South Korea are pulling ahead as the leaders with Europe also showing strength.
I never had a car that was not able to open the rear hatch while car was “on” ,,,is it configurable ?
No, you just have to put it in ”Park”. This review is stupid in so many ways.
I'll wait for the second-gen of this car before I consider buying this car.
12:59 Where in the hell are you seeing lease deals that good for the EQS?! lol
I've been looking forward to this video
It sad see legacy companies like Nissan, Toyota and so on, doing this, is like they are not even trying. They have all the resources and experience, so it’s disappointing to see this results, is like they don’t want to do an EV but they are force to
Can you review the Cadillac lyriq
Handsome car. Wife hated the back but I felt it was the black color of the one we followed. Definitely way better looking than a model Y.
I agree, but sometimes there's a lot more to a vehicle than looks.
@@dvader3263 always
How can Tesla create such a great car and have 20% margins on each vehicle... but Nissan is stuck with almost 8 year old specs? If this is the best legacy auto can do.... yikes.
This is a very biased, nitpicking review! I’ll still take this over Model Y. Nissan is well rooted in EV cars and the built quality of this car is better than Model Y. Don’t take my word for it, go check it out and compare it to Tesla, you’d be surprised at the quality of Ariya in and out. Nissan though, should have done better with the charging and price.
I'm glad I got my Kia EV6. Tech/charging is way ahead. But nothing qualifies for the tax credit as of April 18th. EV battery now has to be made in America.
Love Nissan and Love this Ariya....might be priced a little on the high side, but a great looking vehicle...normally love your reviews but seems like you were definitely nitpicking on this one, it looks better than the Ioniq 5 by leaps and bounds, ex., of nitpicking complaining about the seats, every reviewer knows that Nissan makes some of the best seats in the automotive industry regardless of price (even Tesla copied them), and complaints about the pebble steering wheel, cmon Bro...that is more of a preference...seems like a Nissan bashing review, not your best review Bro...!
And then you have to work with the dealership
Felt like Kyle really went hard on Nissan on this review. I have watched many reviews of the Ariya and Kyle’s is a real outlier.
Wow. Only 11m into the video and it’s unbelievable. Nissan is just in it’s own little world building that thing. Like they did no research, have no competition, no standard to meet, and for that price point…. I’m baffled.
Sotp? What does ”Stop” mean?
Nissan need to make this color combination for the rogue
But why all that black,,,glossy,,,plastic trim all way round the vehicle, no matter the body color or trim level, - can’t stand it !
I love the looks
not bad, but who wants all that shiny black plastic on the exterior?!
9 trim levels, wtf! what happened to S, SV, SL and platinum.
Lots of lots of deal breakers. I am like "what?" so many times in this video.
Man I was looking forward to this car but it lost me on the charging ability. I’ll still look at the charging curve but highly doubt I would even consider this car for me next vehicle since we are a family that takes long road trips every few months
Check out the charging curve: very flat, maintains respectable rate all the way to 80%. Bottom line: charges as fast as a lot of other cars that peak at higher rates but throttle down soon into the mid-SOC.
There is no good argument to buy one of these in the US market, and what other market will offer a better chance? None. Dead in the water.
How the heck did Nissan blow the charging speed so badly? It's not as bad as the Bolt, but considering this is just coming out now, the charging speed is completely unacceptable.
It is not blown, the curve is flat.
Will never by Nissan again. Once and Done ✅
One pedal driving isnt something you want to encourage with any car equipped with modern brakes.. the brakes are going to get totally obliterated if you dont use them constantly (heat up, smooth out)
Just pass and get MY or Ioniq 5. Even upcoming EV9 would be not much higher than this this Platinum trim and a lot better and bigger.
Just because the owner paid $65k and has a iphone 14pro max & uses the newer charger dont mean others in the car will have same phone or charger. Id rather they had both. I have a new phone but i also know my sister doesnt so if she got in my car and it had my style she couldnt charge her phone.
7:50 Kyle is looking forward to testing the headlights. Yep, that's the right direction to look for that task!
Will Nissan even be around in a couple of years?
now that the E-Force has debuted hopefully coming soon: ARIYA NISMO EDITION. because just like Tesla-Stans, JDM fanboys and GTR fanboys are also a "thing".
man thats a looker😍
63k ? I keep my id4
Please shut that annoying fake motor noise off.
I think in sport mode you have no choice but to have that sound on the Ariya.
Cut Nissan some slack, they didn't stick 49kw Chademo on this. Seriously though, why would you go with this over all the much better options in the price bracket?
