The Nissan LEAF is versatile, comfortable, and packed with technology. Choosing a pre-owned Nissan LEAF gets you this EV’s best features for an affordable price while also helping you avoid the steep depreciation of a new car.
Going Green: The Benefits of a Pre-Owned Nissan Leaf
Reliable Performance
The propulsion system of the Nissan LEAF is built to last several years. In fact, the manufacturer offers a five-year warranty for the powertrain and an eight-year warranty for the battery. This means that you can expect the performance of a used LEAF to match that of a brand-new EV straight off the production line.
Used LEAFs produced between 2018 and 2025 feature an EM57 permanent-magnet AC motor and a 40.0-kWh battery. The powertrain generates 147 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of instant electric torque, which is ample power to move around town. Used LEAF S PLUS models feature a more powerful electric motor and a 62-kWh battery, amping up the output to 214 horsepower. This gives drivers a satisfying pedal feel and makes long-distance travel comfortable.
Reliable Range
A long-lasting battery also translates to a driving range that holds up well for over a decade. An EV’s battery typically retains 70 percent of its original capacity by the end of its warranty period, so you won’t have to worry about replacement anytime soon. With its battery at full capacity, the LEAF drives up to 149 miles, which makes it ideal for commuting and running errands. The SV PLUS model’s larger battery increases the maximum range to 215 miles.
Advanced Assistance Technology
Nissan Safety Shield 360 comes standard in all LEAFs produced after 2020, while preceding models feature their own suites of safety and assistance technologies that vary with trim level. Depending on the model year, some of the driver assistance features you will find in a used LEAF include automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, and adaptive cruise control. More recent models also offer semi-autonomous driving technology to make operation convenient.
Slow Depreciation
A new EV loses an average of 49.1 percent of its value after the first five years of ownership. Depreciation slows down significantly after the fifth year and continues to slow with every subsequent year. This makes a used LEAF a good investment, as it will retain most of its value even after years of use. Additionally, a used LEAF will cost you much less than a brand-new model since the vehicle has already undergone depreciation.
