Nissan Leaf S (2023–2025) | Trim Review & Features
The 2023–2025 Nissan Leaf S is a focused city commuter powered by a 147-hp electric motor and a 40-kWh battery. While this entry-level trim skips luxury items like ventilated seats, it delivers an EPA-estimated 149 miles of range and includes essential tech like an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay®. It remains a top choice for those seeking a reliable, low-maintenance electric vehicle for daily urban driving.
