The 2026 Nissan LEAF has arrived—completely reimagined to make electric vehicle ownership simpler, smarter, and more exciting than ever before. With its striking new design, improved driving range, faster charging, and driver-first features, the all-new LEAF is proof that electric driving can be as easy as it is enjoyable.
More Range, Faster Charging
The new LEAF is built for real life—commutes, weekend trips, and everything in between. With an estimated range of up to 488 kilometers per charge, plus quick charging from 10% to 80% in just 35 minutes at compatible Level 3 chargers, range anxiety becomes a thing of the past. Thanks to its dual charging ports, including North American Charging Standard (NACS) compatibility, drivers now have access to over 20,000 Tesla Superchargers—no adapters needed.
And when the weather gets cold, the LEAF stays on pace. A new thermal management system helps maintain battery temperature and performance, while an energy-efficient heat pump and available battery heater keep things warm and running smoothly, even in Canadian winters.
Bold New Design, Inside and Out
The 2026 LEAF sports a dynamic crossover form that blends aerodynamics with an unmistakably modern look. From its sleek 0.26 drag coefficient and flush motorized door handles to the bold lighting signature and black grille with available illuminated Nissan badge, every detail is designed for performance and presence.
Standout touches include a sculpted roofline with katana blade-inspired trim (a nod to the Nissan Z), integrated window glass for better airflow, and a subtle rear spoiler that enhances both style and efficiency. Nissan’s new “2-3” iconography—a nod to “ni-san” in Japanese—is cleverly worked into lighting elements and wheel designs.
With bold paint options like Seabreeze Blue Pearl with Black Roof and Coulis Red Pearl, the LEAF turns heads before it even leaves the driveway.
A Minimalist, Spacious Interior with Smart Tech
Inside, the new LEAF is open, inviting, and refreshingly simple. A low, flat dashboard and redesigned seats increase knee room and cabin comfort, while the available panoramic dimming roof can go from transparent to opaque at the push of a button—improving both headroom and aerodynamics.
There’s up to 1,572 litres of cargo space and an optional Divide-N-Hide® organizer, offering flexible storage for whatever your day demands.
Tech-wise, the LEAF delivers. SV+ and PLATINUM+ models feature dual 14.3-inch displays with Google built-in, giving you easy access to Google Maps, Google Assistant, and the Play Store right from your dash. Planning trips is a breeze, with Maps recommending charging stops based on your route and letting you customize your desired battery level at arrival.
For audiophiles, the Bose® Personal Plus® sound system (available on PLATINUM+) includes speakers in the front headrests, offering immersive sound and directional audio for phone calls and nav prompts.
Charging Has Never Been Easier
The 2026 LEAF introduces Plug & Charge technology—no app, no card swipe, just plug in and go. With the enhanced MyNISSAN App and access to the NISSAN Energy Charge Network, drivers can locate charging stations, check availability, and pay in one simple step. The network includes over 9,000 public chargers across Canada, offering unmatched convenience.
Built for Confidence
Nissan’s commitment to safety is front and center. Every LEAF includes Safety Shield® 360, with features like Automatic Emergency Braking, Blind Spot Intervention, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert.
New camera systems—including the 3D Intelligent Around View® Monitor and Invisible Hood View—help you navigate tight spots and see potential hazards from multiple angles. And with ProPILOT Assist, long drives become more relaxing thanks to adaptive cruise control and lane-centering support.
A Nissan-first, Secondary Collision Mitigation Braking, helps reduce the chance of a secondary crash by applying the brakes after an initial collision.
Power, Performance, and Choice
Under the hood, a new 75-kWh battery and 214-horsepower electric motor offer smooth, quick acceleration. A 52-kWh version will also be available later, offering drivers more flexibility based on their driving needs.
Whichever version you choose, the LEAF delivers on performance, practicality, and personality.
The Future of Driving Starts Now
The 2026 Nissan LEAF is proof that EVs can be fun, functional, and easy to live with—without compromise. It’s a fresh take on what an electric vehicle should be, and it’s arriving at dealerships this fall.
