2018 Nissan Leaf gets official EPA ratings

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!
