Anyone liking the Nissan Ariya?

overcoil · 07-15-2020, 04:14 PM

due in the U.S. in 2021. Full electric. Think it is very attractive.

AlexFL · 07-15-2020, 05:00 PM

attractive design, weak specs. Model Y looks like shit but I would easily take it over this Nissan.

No, it will be 10k or less difference. Nissan 40k, Model Y long range 50k.

Specs look very similar to the Model Y. Near 400hp in AWD configuration, around 300 miles of range.

Having recently cancelled a Model Y delivery 1 week before acceptance, I would easily accept similar specs in another brand. Their trade pricing/process, quality, spartan interior, etc is all incredibly bad. Incredibly.

If you don't have a head, given that head-room in the back.

They couldn’t have picked a worse color for the launch in that video. Interior plain and boring like model Y. Meh

I totally agree. BMW did the same thing with their all-electric 4 Series concept. Market research must be telling these manufacturers that EV buyers want a feminine esthetic that eschews masculinity.

stein_325i · 07-16-2020, 08:46 AM

Probably one of Nissan's better vehicles in years! And best of all no CVT

Looks like someone stepped on a Murano but overall not bad, but 15 cubic feet of cargo is tiny, that might hurt sales, but overall interested to see how this turns our for Nissan.

True, but Nissan still has $7500 tax credits to widen the difference. I personally would also take a Model Y once they improve the build quality.

Agree, what is this obsession with marketing EV's in hideous copper/gold?!?

Yes, but the 50k long range Tesla comes fully equipped besides the Full Self-Driving Capability. We will have to see how well equipped the base AWD Nissan will be.

Efthreeoh · 07-16-2020, 09:21 AM

I'd get the Mustang Mach E.

gatorfast · 07-16-2020, 09:16 PM

Looks pretty nice, I would rock one. Lots of good options coming to market with this, the model Y, and mustang mach e.

...and Polestar 2

SSW · 07-18-2020, 02:23 AM

Looks good to me. Far better IMO than a Tesla Y.

Teslas are too costly and are far too common on the road now. Telsa's quality "control" and the limited availability of service centers also leave a lot to be desired.

The Ariya will be less common, cost less, have the same range 200+ range as a basic Tesla Y, and will be supported by Nissan's nationwide dealer/service network, which are all pluses to me. There will also be a 300 mile range version of the Ariya that will be competitive w/the 316 mile dual motor version of the Y.

So, it seems like the Airya was designed to be a Tesla Y "killer."

Just returned my Chevy Bolt at then end of a 3 yr lease and, depending on the terms, would consider leasing an Ariya which will list at about the same price as my Bolt did back in 2017.

However, I already have 5 vehicles and am thinking about buying another which will make 6. Don't have room or need for a 7th vehicle but I'll keep the Ariya in mind if I decide to get rid of my MB SUV which ain't happening anytime soon.

LOL!

No.

What Renault model is this?

JasonDot · 07-21-2020, 12:29 PM

...just hope they don’t use same battery thermal management as the Leaf.

heavyD^2 · 07-21-2020, 01:06 PM

I have a firm "no Nissan" policy so no.
