When some of us are already thinking about the 2019 Nissan Leaf, the 2018 model year finally gets its official EPA ratings.
Without further ado let’s see the EPA ratings.
|
Range |
Efficiency |
|
|
City |
169 miles – 271 km |
26,88 kWh/100 miles – 16,7 kWh/100 km |
|
Highway |
135 miles – 217 km |
33,6 kWh/100 miles – 20,88 kWh/100 km |
|
Combined |
151 miles – 243 km |
30 kWh/100 miles – 18,64 kWh/100 km |
As always, remember that EPA efficiency figures measure plug-to-wheels consumption, this means that the onboard charger efficiency matters
While the EPA ratings seem more realistic than the WLTP ratings released not long ago, it’s a shame that we don’t have different EPA ratings for different wheel sizes.
As a bonus I leave you with a video about the new 2018 Nissan Leaf battery.
Thanks Carlos Adell for the heads up!
