Better Equipped
The new interior has a flat bottom steering wheel and an overall feeling of greater quality. A blue stitching adds a fun accent to the upholstery. Drivers enjoy a higher seating position, giving them a better view of the road. The dashboard now has an integrated touchscreen. The navigation touchscreen has added Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

Bigger
There are new seats and more space for passengers. Rear seat passengers actually sit taller, but they have also gained more headroom. The cargo hold measures 23 cu.ft., beating the Chevy Bolt’s 16 cu.ft. trunk.

ProPilot
Leaping toward the future, the Leaf offers ProPilot. Nissan’s semi-autonomous system can do light steering as well as accelerating and braking. It uses forward-facing radar and a monocular video camera to inform its network of sensors.
