The Autotrader expert verdict:
Available new from £39,655
We are big fans of the Nissan Ariya, and it seems owners love it too, voting it Best Car for Long Distances in our 2024 Awards and praising its comfort, quality and range. Now Nissan brings us a sportier NISMO version . This ramps up the power, adds firmer sports suspension and more aggressive looks. While the faster acceleration and the splashes of red detailing are nice touches, there’s no escaping the Ariya is still a big, heavy, family car. As a result, the performance-focused NISMO edition loses the refinement and range of the Skoda Enyaq vRS that strike a better balance of sportiness without practical compromise.
Reasons to buy:
- Sportier NISMO design
- More power than the standard model
- Spacious interior
