Nissan Ariya – 2024 Semi-Finalist

Nissan was one of the first onto the electric scene with the original Leaf. The Ariya is the brand’s sophomore battery-electric effort, targeting the popular SUV segment with a combination of premium cabin with multiple powertrain and battery pairings.

The three Ariya attributes that stood out most to CCOTY jurors are:

  • Interior Styling
  • Noise/Vibration/Harshness
  • Safety

Juror’s Opinion: Marc Bouchard summed up his thoughts on the Nissan Ariya for Le Courrier de Saint-Hyacinthe:

“With a starting price of $53,000 for the front-wheel drive (FWD) model and $69,198 for the all-wheel drive (AWD) luxury version, the Nissan Ariya may not be the bargain of the century. However, its finish, handling, and ride quality are exceptional. Above all, it’s eligible for government rebates.”
