2026 Nissan Leaf revealed in more detail
The company revealed the new Leaf's front profile at the end of March, showing off the car's rounder shape, taller ride height, and aerodynamic front end.
According to Nobutaka Tase, the Leaf program's design director, the new model is "most aero efficient car we've ever made" thanks to its fastback-style body, active grille shutters, flat underbody, flush-fitting door handles, and "optimised" wheel design.

There's also an e-dimming panoramic glass roof, which Tase-san claims allowed the team to lower "critical air detachment points by 12mm".
In the US and Japan the most efficient Leaf variants will have a coefficient of drag of 0.26, while European models bring that number down to 0.25 as they have unique wing mirror and alloy wheel designs .
Richard Candler, vice president in charge of global product strategy, says the Leaf is "icon for us" and is "one of our core heartbeat models".
In order for the new Leaf to be a "credible alternative to combustion engine vehicles" it will be able to do "300 to 500km between stops".
According to Mr Candler the "average refuelling stop is around 14 minutes, and in that time [the new Leaf] can add over 250km of charge with seamless plug and charge capability".
Under the skin, the new Leaf employs the CMF-EV architecture that underpins the Ariya electric crossover. The platform, rebranded as AmpR Medium, also serves as the basis of the Renault Megane E-Tech and Scenic E-Tech.
The Ariya is available with 65kWh and 90kWh battery packs, and a selection of drivetrains, starting with a 160kW/300Nm front-wheel drive setup and topping out with a 290kW/600Nm all-wheel drive dual-motor system.
Depending on the drivetrain and battery pack combo, the Ariya's WLTP driving range is between 360km and 500km.
By way of comparison, the second-generation Leaf has a 110kW/320Nm motor paired to a 39kWh battery in its base trim, offering a WLTP driving range of 270km. The e+ variant has a beefier 160kW/340Nm electric motor, larger 62kWh battery, and a WLTP range of 385km.
Since the original Leaf's launch back in 2010 around 700,000 have been sold worldwide. At one stage it was the world's best selling EV ever, but it has since been overtaken by the Tesla Model 3 and Model Y.
Collectively all of the world's Leaf models have covered an estimated 28 billion kilometres.
The new Leaf will go on sale in Australia in 2026. Local models will likely be sourced from Nissan's factory in Sunderland, UK.MORE: Everything Nissan Leaf

Honda Australia not worried about Chinese competition
Honda Australiasays it has what it takes to compete with the growing number of Chinese brands in our market, as it looks to rebuild after several tough sales years. While Honda is pitched – and priced – as a more premium brand than many Japanese rivals, it's facing increased competition from new brands from China. Chinese automakers are aiming ever higher, expanding beyond the cheap and cheerful offerings they're known for to more premium products – witness the introduction of Geely's Zeekr marque, MG offering products from the IM Motors premium brand, GWM offering pricier Tank SUVs, and BYD readying its more luxurious Denza offshoot for Australia. But while Chinese brands are aiming upmarket, Honda Australia says it will focus on its plan regardless of who enters the local scene, with managing director Rob Thorp confident the automaker is on track for growth in Australia. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new car. Click here to get a great deal. "It's a competitive landscape – so whether it is the Chinese competitors, or the Koreans or the Germans – or whatever it may be, that just becomes the competitive landscape we have to deal with," Mr Thorp told CarExpert. "It's a free market, they've got the right opportunity to compete here, it is what it is. "I think for us, we're very clear on our proposition in the markets and what our competitive strengths are. I think the challenge we have is to ensure that enough consumers know that." What are those strengths the Honda boss believes will hold the brand in good shape in Australia over the next decade? "I think of it from the quality of the product that you see, the quality of the customer care and service you receive, the longevity of the models and the relationship we have with you during the ownership period," he explained. "So we're very comfortable we've got the ingredients to be successful in this market – but they're competitors, whatever and wherever they come from – that's just the environment we have to work in." The Japanese brand is expanding its hybrid lineup, which will include the introduction of the hybrid-powered Prelude sports car here next year, and plans to launch its first electric vehicle (EV) before the end of 2026, too. It has, however, ruled out bringing its luxury brand sold overseas, Acura, to local showrooms. Honda posted its lowest sales on record in this country in 2022 and 2023, following the move to a fixed-price agency model, a reduction in the number of dealers in its network, and the discontinuation of more affordable products like the Jazz. The number of brands in Australia has continue to increase, making our market – already saturated given the number of brands competing for sales of only 1.2 million vehicles each year – even more cut-throat. It led chief operating officer of Chery-owned Omoda Jaecoo, Roy Muñoz, to recently declare more brands benefited new-car buyers and only improved showroom offerings through an ultra-competitive climate.
