With the addition of its dual-motor, e-4ORCE AWD system, the Nissan Ariya stakes its claim as one of the best EVs on the market.
By 2023, it should be clear that electric vehicles are here to stay. Companies that got started early on EVs have a head start, and when considering the current era of electric mobility, no major automaker got out of the starting blocks faster than Nissan. The 2010 Nissan Leaf invited the masses to experience quiet, efficient motoring—but in the decade-plus since its debut, it has been caught by more impressive competition.
The all-new 2023 Nissan Ariya aims to retake market share in the electric vehicle space. With front- and all-wheel-drive powertrain options, slick design, immersive technology, and a competitive price tag, the Ariya looks capable of putting Nissan back into the EV conversation. We tested a single-motor Ariya in the fall of 2022 and have since evaluated the dual-motor e-4ORCE model for this updated review.

(9 reviews)Customers say
The Nissan Ariya impresses with its sleek design, advanced technology, and substantial range, especially with the larger battery options. Owners appreciate its spacious interior, smooth ride, and strong performance, particularly in the AWD versions. However, some drivers find the trunk space somewhat limited and have pointed out that the price can be on the higher side. Additionally, there are criticisms regarding the lack of physical buttons for controls and a desire for increased driving range on certain trims.

What people say
Smooth and refined. Loads of features. Get a lot for your money buying one used.
Great features. I don’t think it’s missing anything except more range. I would also compare the Tesla model Y.
Lots of advanced safety features, plenty of range in the larger battery versions, and a great family car. It takes a while to figure out how to use all the controls, but that’s because the car has so many features. Love it!
This car is awesome. Quick to get up to speed, comfortable, and lots of buttons to learn. This is my first EV so the learning curve was a little much but it didn't take too long.
The car is great. Gets great mileage and had lots of power Love the brake boost recharge. Not as expensive as a tesla. I would recommend
