Charging stations for Nissan Leaf

The Nissan Leaf is an electric car that can travel up to 270 km on a single charge in a combined cycle (city + highway) and up to 389 km in a city cycle. This is a fairly large distance in both cases. To fully charge this car, you will need a Nissan Leaf charger.

Nissan Leaf Charging Options

There are 2 eco-refueling options:

• Fast charging (480V) on the go. Currently, such publicly accessible stations are located throughout Ukraine. The recharge time from 20% to 80% takes only 60 minutes.
• Charging with AC (220V) on the road, office, or at home. Using the Nissan Leaf charger in your parking lot, if you have 32A, you must wait 7 hours and 30 minutes for a full charge.

But keep in mind that many other factors affect charging time:

• charging type;
• charger status;
• battery temperature;
• the ambient temperature at the place of use.

All this directly affects the charging speed of the car. Therefore, it is most convenient to have your own charging station.
