Ariya 87kWh (MY22-25)

The Nissan Ariya 87kWh (MY22-25) is a 5-seat SUV with front-wheel drive, sold new from 2022 to 2026, when it cost £35,500 in the UK, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 7.6 seconds, slower than 66% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 280 miles (450 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 59% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 82nd of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 3.2 mi/kWh (193 Wh/km), less efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 87 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 80 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 270 miles (435 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Second-hand, a 2022 example is estimated at £11,500–£13,400 and a 2026 one at £20,200–£23,100, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2022 car should still manage about 258 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
