The Ariya has an estimated range of up to 310 miles (based on WLTP combined cycle, subject to homologation), and is heavily based on the similarly-named concept vehicle displayed at the 2019 Tokyo Motor Show and first hinted at with the IMx at the 2017 Tokyo Motor Show. It’s the first production model aimed at representing Nissan’s new electrified brand identity, forging a path toward a new automotive era where the company believes electrification, optimised platform packaging and seamless vehicle AI technology will become standard.
“The Nissan Ariya is a truly beautiful and remarkable car” Gupta said. “It enables you to go further, easier and in comfort. The Ariya is designed to impress, and to express what Nissan strives for – making our customers’ lives better.”
The vehicle has been built on an all-new Alliance-developed EV platform. It is available to the European market in five core versions, including two-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive versions, thus making the vehicle suitable for the driving needs of a wide range of customers. The Nissan Ariya 63kWh versions carry a 7.4 kW charger for domestic use, while the 87kWh include a 22kW 3 phase charger for home charging. The Ariya can also support quick charging up to 130kW for peace of mind during long journeys.
While every Ariya will feature impressive driving range in its segment, it also boasts remarkable range recovery and quick-charge performance using the Combined Charging System in Europe (CCS). This is thanks in part to its battery thermal control feature, which constantly optimises the operating temperature of the liquid-cooled battery.
