Nissans actually been making electric cars longer than most other car makers.
Level 1 charging is really slow in my experience with the 2025 Nissan Ariya Platinum+ AWD.

Unlike other models that let me adjust the amperage of the charger, theres no setting for that whatsoever.
Thats one of the slowest Ive tested, so I would absolutely recommend getting a Level 2 charger installed.
Meanwhile, the backseats also have decent legroom.

Its not meant to act as high beams since theyre controlled separately.
I just like how I can adjust them manually to make nighttime easier for me.
The Nissan Ariyas auto park assist is one of the most intuitive that Ive tried.

It just allows me to quickly glance at my speed and directions.
I like opening it whenever the weathers nice out, which is also a good distraction for your passengers.
In fact, the Ariya screams luxury design that rivals other EVs like theGenesis GV60andLexus RZ 450e.

However, it doesnt work on many local roads.
Although I can still activate standard cruise control, it wont steer the wheel on its own.
For some reason, its very low quality with its smudgy looks and heavy noise at night.

Its almost as bad as the backup camera in theVolkswagen Jetta GLI.
Even after adjusting the bass and treble, I still wasnt satisfied by the performance.
