The worst battery technology ever

2023 Nissan ARIYA Engage 4dr SUV (electric DD)
6 of 18 people found this review helpful

I purchased a Nissan Ariya with a promised range of 230 miles. However, when winter arrived in Massachusetts, despite fully charging at 100%, the car only shows 150 miles of range. When I had the car inspected, I was told there is no error code, and this is by design. Given the consistently cold weather in Massachusetts, I find myself stuck with a car that severely limits my activities. While it boasts style and comfort, it's essentially restricted to basic trips. A word of caution: don't invest in a Nissan; regret is inevitable. It may look good and be comfortable, but it's practically useless for anything beyond a quick trip to the store. Don't waste your money."

Subpar Cooling Performance and Disruptive Charging

Jean, 08/30/2023
2023 Nissan ARIYA Premiere 4dr SUV (electric DD)
6 of 20 people found this review helpful

The 2023 Nissan Ariya presents notable drawbacks in its air conditioning system and charging noise. Amid scorching Arizona temperatures, the air conditioning's lukewarm output fails to meet cooling needs, causing discomfort during triple-digit heat. Additionally, the overly loud engine noise while charging raises concerns about potential mechanical issues, unsettling drivers. Despite multiple dealer visits, these problems persist and have been acknowledged as common by the manufacturer, who cites ongoing engineering efforts to address the issues. Given these concerns, those seeking relief from the problematic experience may face challenges in reaching a resolution without impacting their existing financial commitments.

Very uncomfortable and not an SUV

This car is awfully uncomfortable. There is a huge useless center console and bulky door armrests that squeeze you tightly between them that the seatbelt buckle pinches your hip. The console has absolutely no storage and it’s unclear what purpose it serves since there is no storage space in it except a phone charger that works 50% of the time. The trunk floor is so high and the rear hatch slopes down so low you really don’t have any SUV functionality so they shouldn’t really call this an SUV. Lastly, the ride is awful and you feel every bump like the car doesn’t have any suspension. UPDATE: I only leased this car when the lease on my Leaf expired and because it was the cheapest car I could get. The car has horrible ride and you feel every bump in the road. For a large car, the driver seat is surprisingly small and hemmed in on both sides by large door handles and an obtrusive center console that doesn't have any useful storage space. Headroom is terrible and I'm not even 5'7" becuase the headliner with the moonroof cuts deep down and the seats do not lower far enough to the floor. Since evertything in the car is run through the infotainment screen, it's very difficult to live with becuase the infotainment screen is slow and prone to glitches all the time. In some weeks I reboot the screen at least once a day. And forget about trying to use wireless carplay - it will work when it wants to but most often won't even connect. The center console that moves front to back is a joke. There is no room to store anything besides a cell phone. The cupholders are not large enough to put a larger water bottle in and there are no other places to store items, except a small motorized tray or secret compartment (depending on how you look at it). The trunk has a false floor that hides a tremendous amount of empty space that is presumably there to hold a nonexistent spare tire. I removed the false floor to expand the space. If I didn't get a cheap lease on this car, I would never have gotten it and can not recommend it to anyone.

Car is new to me but I’m impressed with the fit and finish and the ride quality. The power train is smooth with plenty of power.

Not up to par of other EVs

2023 Nissan ARIYA Empower+ 4dr SUV (electric DD)

I test drove a FWD version. Gutless and lots of torque steer. Why FWD... I'll never know with all that weight. Roof rails are not available, so crossbars must be clipped in door frames. No place for installing a class II hitch. Interior is rather plain. Exterior, however, is sharp looking. Has one of the best HUD.
