The SV Plus trim of the new EV is $1,960 cheaper than the outgoing model year version. All Leaf trims except the S feature a 75 kWh battery paired with a 215 hp motor setup.

The new Nissan Leaf is not only priced lower than Tesla's popular Model Y, but also Chevrolet's cheapest electric crossover.

Nissan stunned us all when it released the specs for its refreshed Leaf: new crossover body; dual charging ports; and over 300 miles of range. Today, the Japanese released the starting price for the Leaf, and lo and behold, it’s still a hell of a bargain.
