This is the all-new Nissan Ariya! It’s an all-new all-electric SUV, and Mat’s going hands-on with a prototype edition to see if it will have what it takes to compete with class-leaders like the Mustang Mach-E & Tesla Model Y!
And on first impressions, it looks like it may have what it takes! The exterior design is super sleek, with a sloping roofline at the back coupled with a full-length light bar. Up front, there’s a very cool ‘grille’ coupled with some real vents! All in all, it’s easily one of the best looking EV SUVs out there today.

But that’s not all - the high quality continues on the inside, too. The overall design seems relatively similar to a BMW iX, although you’ll find a large number of touch-sensitive buttons below a large infotainment screen. Unfortunately, though, the quality of the actual infotainment system isn’t all that great.
When it comes to power output and charging, the range-topping Ariya will come with two electric motors that can produce 394hp! The larger 87kWh battery pack should also be good for a claimed range of 310 miles.
As you can imagine though, this stylish EV SUV doesn’t come cheap, with prices starting from £42,000 - £15,000 more than a Qashqai! So is it worth it?
