Nissan Leaf: what is the energy consumption while driving? [FORUM] • CARS

26.05.2022 /

In the Nissan LEAF Polska group / forum, an interesting question has arisen about the energy consumption of the Nissan Leaf during a typical ride. In normal driving, the response ranged from 12 to 14 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per 100 km in the summer and from 16 to 23 kWh of energy in the winter.

    • Lots of energy, little money

The record result presented in the group is 10,8 kWh per 100 kilometers at a distance of less than 70 kilometers. Another driver, who went all out, reduced his speed to 11,6 kWh/100 km (8,6 km/kWh is the result of the Nissan Leaf).

Record aside, the lower limit for normal leisurely driving is 12,2 kWh per 100 km in summer and 14,3 kWh per 100 km in winter. Others reached about 13-14 kWh / 100 km in summer and about 16 kWh of energy in winter.

Lots of energy, little money

The worst hit was Leafy, whose drivers had a heavy leg. Unmaintained and operated in winter on hilly terrain, they consumed 22-23 kWh of energy per 100 kilometers. The infamous record is 25 kWh per 100 kilometers, achieved by a Vozilla. This is a lot when you consider that the battery of the first generation Nissan Leafa has a capacity of 24 kWh - the energy in it is enough for about 100 kilometers of driving.

And at the same time ... quite a bit, considering energy prices. Even with the maximum G11 tariff rate of 60 PLN per kWh, the consumption of 1 kWh of energy means that the cost of a 25 km journey is 100 PLN. This is about 15 liters of fuel.
