Step into the future with Nissan’s innovative electric and hybrid range. From the pioneering Nissan LEAF - one of the world’s best-selling EVs - to the cutting-edge ARIYA electric crossover, Nissan is leading the way in zero-emission mobility. Looking for a petrol alternative without the need to plug in? Nissan’s unique e-POWER technology offers an electrified driving experience powered by a petrol engine that charges the electric motor - giving you instant acceleration and improved fuel efficiency.
Whether you're going fully electric or easing in with hybrid power, Nissan delivers smart, sustainable driving that doesn’t compromise on style, space, or performance.
Reduced Fuel ConsumptionHybrids enhance fuel efficiency by utilizing both an electric motor and a combustion engine. Whether running on electric power alone or working alongside the engine, they allow you to travel longer distances on a single tank of fuel. |
Charging your Nissan
There are more than 53,000 charging points in the UK. In fact, there are now more charging points across the UK than there are petrol stations.
Nissan works with ZapMap, an app that displays all UK charging locations and other information you need such as charging point availability. With many different networks in the UK, Zap-Pay makes charging payment simple. It means you can search, plan and pay for charging quickly and easily, all within the Zapmap app. Even better, you can also use Apple Pay and Google Pay on Zap-Pay chargers across the country.

Having a home charger installed has never been easier, and once installed, you only need to pay for the electricity you use whilst your vehicle is on charge.
The most convenient way to fully charge your electric vehicle is to plug it in overnight, so that it’s always ready to go as soon as you are. With a Nissan ARIYA for instance, you’d have a full charge in the morning with a range of up to 329 miles.
85% of Nissan LEAF owners choose to charge their cars at home and we recommend installing a 7kW home charger from one of our partners, EON Drive or Pod Point.
We have a number of home charger options available, all of which include standard installation from trained technicians. They also include up to five year’s warranty and come with a charging app allowing you complete control when you charge your electric vehicle.
It is perfectly possible to charge your electric vehicle with a standard 3-pin socket charger cable. It is however, the least efficient and most time-consuming way. A dedicated home charger is the safest, quickest and most cost-efficient way to charge your electric vehicle from the comfort of your home.
How it Works
Experience exclusive Nissan technology with e-POWER: an innovative hybrid system that combines a petrol engine with a lithium-ion battery to power an electric motor. Unlike traditional hybrids, the electric motor solely drives the wheels, delivering the same smooth, responsive feel and instant torque you'd expect from a fully electric vehicle. Enjoy reduced tailpipe emissions and lower running costs compared to standard combustion engines - all without plugging in. Plus, e-POWER maximizes efficiency with regenerative braking, which recharges the battery as you drive, ensuring you're always ready to go.
A 100% electric vehicle is powered entirely by an electric motor using a battery. These vehicles must be plugged in to charge and emit zero emissions.
If you’re not quite ready to go fully electric, a hybrid vehicle offers the perfect middle ground. In Nissan vehicles, hybrid and mild hybrid technologies both improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions but operate differently.
Hybrid systems use both a petrol engine and an electric motor, allowing the vehicle to run on electric power alone at low speeds and switch to petrol or a combination of both for more power. This delivers notable fuel savings, especially in city driving, and enables short electric-only trips.
Mild hybrids, however, provide a lighter assist; they supplement the petrol engine with a small lithium battery but cannot power the vehicle independently. Instead, mild hybrids improve efficiency through features like stop-start technology, which shuts off the engine when idling, reducing fuel use and emissions. While both systems enhance economy, hybrids offer more electric capabilities, while mild hybrids provide a simpler boost.
Whether you choose a fully electric car or a hybrid, making the switch brings you closer to a more sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective way of driving.
Great! You're in luck as we have a fantastic range of new and used fully electric vehicles from a range of manufacturers. The UK government has stated that new petrol and diesel cars will be banned from 2030.
If still don't feel ready to make the switch from regular fuel to electricity, but would still like to reap some of the rewards, why not try a Hybrid Electric Vehicle? Hybrid electric vehicles use part fuel, part-electricity and can be a great option for those who would like to wait a little longer to go fully electric!
