Nissan Ariya (2022-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Practical interior	Ride comfort could be smoother
Attractive, modern cabin design	Boot is adequate but not exceptional
Relaxing to drive	Expensive to buy

Quick Summary

The Nissan Ariya (2022-present) is a stylish five-seat electric SUV, positioned above the Qashqai in terms of design and upmarket appeal. It offers two battery options, 63kWh and 87kWh, providing an official WLTP range between 247 and 330 miles. Prices range from around £40,000 to £60,000, making it competitive with rivals like the Skoda Enyaq iV and Ford Mustang Mach-E.

The Ariya boasts a very practical interior with ample space for families, and a boot capacity of 466 litres (FWD) or 408 litres (AWD). Its cabin features a minimalist, premium design with dual 12.3-inch screens and touch-sensitive controls, offering a refined experience. While relaxing to drive with smooth power delivery, its ride can be firm, and driving dynamics don't quite match the sportiest rivals. Standard equipment is generous, even on the entry-level Engage trim.

Best for: Drivers seeking a stylish, practical electric SUV with a premium-feeling, modern interior; those valuing comfort over outright sportiness; buyers looking for generous standard equipment.

Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising the smoothest ride comfort, the most engaging driving dynamics, or a more budget-friendly electric SUV; those who prefer physical buttons over touch controls.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Ariya if: You're looking for a stylish, practical electric SUV with a premium-feeling, modern interior, valuing comfort over outright sportiness, and appreciate generous standard equipment.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise the smoothest ride comfort, the most engaging driving dynamics, a more budget-friendly electric SUV, or prefer traditional physical buttons.

Competitive Position: The Nissan Ariya is a bold and appealing electric SUV that offers competitive range, practicality, and a high-quality, stylish interior. While it excels in design and cabin refinement, its ride comfort and driving dynamics don't quite match all rivals. It represents a strong contender for those seeking a well-equipped, upmarket EV, but faces stiff competition from more comfortable or dynamically engaging alternatives.
