The 2024 Nissan Ariya e-4ORCE Is A More Upscale & Sensible Japanese Electric SUV

The follow-up to the #Nissan leaf has arrived and while the #NissanAriya is definitely late to the party. For 2024, the #Ariya gets a significant price cut that makes the #Ariyae4ORCE even more enticing for buyers looking for a comfortable and spacious electric SUV from Nissan. While some rivals do offers more to help them stand out, the latest Ariya could still be worth a look if you want to drive something a little more rare on the roads.

I love our Ariya we have a white Platinum+ with the 389hp. We have no issues driving local places with the 250 miles of range. I bought it with 3500 miles on the odometer for $39k with an original sticker price of $62k!

Something is wrong with that infotainment center. Mine is buttery smooth, never had a problem. My thinking is, that’s a press car! It’s had 3,000 phones connected to it🤣 Maybe it’s got a bug or something.🤷🏾‍♂️ lastly, I have the base model venture+ front wheel drive 300 mile range. I absolutely love it. I’ve had it for almost a year and there isn’t a single day I regret purchasing it❤

I test drove this and it’s nice car. Nissan should give it faster charging, more range, a lower price and replace the motorized central console with a manual one with storage. I like the combination of normal door handles, good horsepower, rear wiper, wireless CarPlay, a sunroof that actually opens and some decent buttons (although it’s too bad they are haptic.). The ones I’ve seen in person look very nice. The model Y is a great car in many ways but it’s not premium. No head up display, no cooled seats, no cover for the glass roof, no blind spot monitor, no radar sensors for parking, no camera mirror. None of that stuff is necessary, but it’s pretty standard on “premium” cars.

[@marketbuy]

@@Molishious You can say “Hey Nissan” without touching the haptic buttons. “Hey Nissan, turn on the AC”

[@Molishious]

@@marketbuy If “Hey Nissan” works well then that’s good to know and I might like doing it that way. Right now I have a temperature knob and I know I like that, and I’ll like the haptic buttons less, but they’ll be okay. Can you say “Hey Nissan, turn on the heated seats”?

At this price, the Ariya seems like it should be a Infiniti model. The dealership experience and service at a Nissan store is definitely going to be far poorer than a Infiniti store....

[@bigd7386]

Sofyan… you know CarPlay was laggy to that extent because you were recording with the same phone connected to the system. And there is no way that screen is grainy/low res. I’m not claiming the infotainment is perfect but it’s nowhere near as bad as it was made out to be here. And how was the car beating its EPA estimates spun into a negative thing? Being that it’s a press car, I’m sure the range estimates are thrown off by all the different reviewers driving it. I don’t think it would be far fetched to think it would be a little more accurate with a typical driver.

[@MattCC16Gaming]

Is the CarPlay laggy because you were recording on the same phone that was connected? In previous reviews and in other videos the CarPlay is fine. I remember in other videos I think you had another iPhone to show CarPlay.

[@bw6415]

I had the chance to drive a Platinum E-Force for a week and absolutely loved it. The power was smooth and linear and I really enjoyed the acceleration in it. The ride and handling was very good and I did not experience the impact harshness that is mentioned in your video. The charge times were fine and I did not have any issues with it. 8 hrs at night while sleeping and it was a ready to go the next morning. The infotainment system was very responsive and there was never a lagging and I didn’t notice a grainy look to the display. My only gripe was the aggressiveness of the E-STEP system. WAY TOO ABRUPT, so I gave up on using it. I noticed the brake pedal softness while it was on that would go back to normal with the system off. Overall I was very impressed with this vehicle. I love the styling in and out. Mine had the 20” wheels which I think look way better. I actually got more than the EPA estimates when I drove it responsively but it was so much fun using all the power it was hard not to play around. Nissan has done a great job with this vehicle !

[@marketbuy]

@@bw6415 EStep requires practice. It's an art to perfect. If you want best range, always set EStep as a default. I can not drive without Estep.

[@jppilotadventurez5251]

Traded my 22 pilot in for this. Best car I’ve ever owned. SUPER quite ride like Cadillac, super comfortable seats. I’m so in love with the vehicle I’ll probably get another. It regenerates SOOOO much back into battery down hill i would advise only charging to 70-75% if you live in mountainous areas, anything above that it’ll put way too much back into an already charged battery. I charged to 70% went to lake alpine from pioneer ca, drove back down to Arnold ca, took some side trips to see my old childhood cabin. Drove to angles camp ca, then back up to my house near Tahoe ca. Made it back home with exactly 100 miles of range, mind you it’s 100 degrees outside so A/C is being used with four occupants! My 2020 model 3 performance could never on a 70% charge! I have the engage+ E-force. Mind you, my anxiety is going crazy thinking I won’t have enough battery to get back home 😂 I’m really happy I went with a truly Japanese vehicle instead of the Honda prologue. Also, my infotainment did that once I first received it, it has to do all the updates one you hook it up to WiFi, mine runs smoothly now. I also turned the haptic sound when you press icons off. I feel like that makes it slow and laggy. Awd system is sick, literally no wheel slip when taking off in a dirt road. I put this thing through its paces already. 😅

If any of these company makes an EV with 350+ miles of range and fast charging (30 mins to 80% charged) then I’ll consider going EV… currently these f* are more worried about their 0-60.

[@darrelpeters]

This is a really nice looking car. It’s actually one of the better electric CUVs on the market right now. Looks better than the ionic five and Tesla model Y for sure. The downsides to it is that the range isn’t that great, slow charging, and even though the motorized center consoles is cool it takes up storage space. Why is it that all of these legacy manufacturers can’t offer a car that gets at least 310 real world miles on most models? 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@blackwhirlwind1245]

I like this car, but it has few issues, like you said, the software needs to be updated for faster processing speed, and it needs a proper center console storage, that tiny center console storage is unacceptable, it needs some actual physical buttons and knobs for climate controls, including heated and ventilated seats, it needs the regular household power outlet for the rear passenger, it’s an EV, you are supposed to provide that outlet for all sorts of appliances. If Nissan can fix all these, it will be the EV I buy. I don’t care about the slow charging, because I will charge this car 99% of time at home.

[@FlowerChild95]

If it offers over the air updates hopefully the infotainment bugs can be solved. I like the weirdness of it though.
