Nissan has revealed Canadian pricing for the 2019 Nissan LEAF PLUS, the new extended-range addition to the new LEAF vehicle lineup. Buyers who head for Nissan dealers in Canada starting in April will be greeted with a $43,998 starting price for the LEAF S PLUS model.
The "PLUS" designation refers to the increased energy density of the model's 62 kWh battery pack as well as the higher 214-hp output of its powertrain (the standard LEAF operates on a 40 kWh battery).
The Nissan LEAF S PLUS delivers roughly 50% more range, with an official range of up to 363 km. The standar 2019 Nissan LEAF with the 40 kWh battery has a 243-km range.
Nissan also promises livelier accelerations (faster by nearly 13%) with the new powertrain when already at speed. The top speed has increased by about 10%. An added standard new 100kW capacity quick charging system enables owners to charge the 2019 Nissan LEAF PLUS more efficiently.
