Why the Nissan Leaf is a top choice for electric motoring
Smooth, Silent, and Affordable to Run
The Leaf is known for its smooth, silent performance thanks to its electric drivetrain. Instant torque makes it feel quick off the mark, especially in city traffic, and there’s no gear changing to worry about. Most used Leaf models offer between 100 to 168 miles of real-world range, while Leaf e+ versions can provide up to 239 miles (WLTP), depending on the battery and usage.
Charging is flexible too — plug in at home, work or at public rapid chargers, with 0–80% charging available in as little as 40 minutes using fast DC outlets.
Comfortable, Practical and Spacious
Despite being compact on the outside, the Nissan Leaf has a surprisingly roomy interior with seating for five and a boot capacity of 435 litres. There’s plenty of space for passengers, and the battery is mounted under the floor, so it doesn’t impact cabin comfort or cargo room.
Higher-spec models include plush seats, soft-touch materials and clever features that make everyday driving more comfortable.
Technology and Safety Features
The Leaf comes well equipped, even on earlier models. Depending on the version and trim, you’ll find:
- Touchscreen infotainment with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Sat nav and DAB radio
- Bluetooth and USB connectivity
- Rear-view camera or 360-degree monitor
- e-Pedal one-pedal driving system
- ProPILOT (on higher trims) with adaptive cruise control and lane assist
- Climate control, heated seats and steering wheel (on select models)
It’s designed to make electric driving simple, safe and connected.
Trim Levels and Versions
The Leaf is available as a five-door hatchback, with a range of battery sizes and trims to choose from:
- Acenta – Great value with climate control, rear camera and touchscreen infotainment
- N-Connecta – Adds navigation, smart safety features and enhanced connectivity
- Tekna – Top-spec with leather seats, Bose audio, heated seats and ProPILOT assist
- Leaf e+ – Features a larger 62kWh battery, up to 239-mile range and more power for longer journeys
Whether you drive short commutes or need more range, there’s a Leaf to suit.
Why choose a used Nissan Leaf for sale on finance?
A used Nissan Leaf for sale on finance gives you a practical, reliable and fully electric hatchback at a fraction of the cost of new. With low maintenance, zero tailpipe emissions and affordable charging, the Leaf is one of the most cost-effective ways to go green.
Compared to rivals like the Renault Zoe, Hyundai Ioniq Electric and Volkswagen e-Golf, the Leaf offers more interior space, easy-to-use tech and proven reliability backed by years of success in the EV market.

FAQs
Even if the car is in a zero road tax band, you still need to register it as taxed each year. The process is the same, but you won’t be charged anything. So you’ll need to go online or to the Post Office and 'tax' it (it will show a £0 fee). It’s important to do that so the car is officially recorded as taxed.
Our technicians are highly qualified and experienced. They are trained professionals who specialise in inspecting and preparing used cars to a high standard. Every car undergoes a rigorous inspection by our technicians, who have lots of experience in the motor trade. In short, you can trust that knowledgeable, certified mechanics have checked over and serviced your car before sale.
No, we don’t offer GAP insurance. You would need to arrange GAP insurance separately if you want it.
Yes. We we partner with HiQ to provide servicing, so you can absolutely book your car in with us for routine servicing. Just visit our Carsa Service website or call the service centre, and you can schedule a service appointment at a location that’s convenient for you. We’ll be happy to continue taking care of your car’s maintenance.
The V5C logbook is sent to you by the DVLA after purchase. It usually takes a few weeks; typically you can expect it within up to 6-12 weeks by mail.
We’ll provide the service history documents to you when you get the car. If it’s digital, we’ll give you a printout or email, and if the car has a service booklet, that will be in the car’s documents pack. Essentially, at the point of handover (collection or delivery), we’ll hand you any service records or tell you how to access them. So you’ll have the history in hand right away.
It depends on the car’s recommended schedule. Typically, cars should be serviced once a year or roughly every 10,000-12,000 miles (whichever comes first). If we’ve just serviced the car before delivery, your next service would likely be due in about a year from that service date. We’ll let you know the last service date and any upcoming due dates when you purchase the car.
If the car just had an MOT done as part of our prep, then your next MOT is due one year from that date. If it’s a nearly-new car under 3 years old that hasn’t needed an MOT yet, then its first MOT will be due when it turns 3 years old. We’ll let you know the MOT status and date when you buy the car, so you’ll know when to plan for the next one.
