A person looking at their phone and reading about the 2025 Nissan LEAF near Indianapolis, IndianaThe 2025 Nissan LEAF is the perfect EV for Indianapolis families looking to go electric. This affordable compact hatchback is offered in two configurations, helping you customize the LEAF to your family’s needs. We bring you the lowdown on the S and the SV Plus to help you decide which LEAF is the most suitable one for you.

1. S

We start with the S, a hatch powered by a 147-horsepower electric front motor and a 40 kWh battery. This efficient drivetrain makes the LEAF great for commuting. The S is a smart-looking LEAF, boasting sleek lines, a curvaceous rear fascia, halogen headlights, and 16-inch steel wheels.

Interior Highlights

The simple yet refined cloth-lined interior has plenty of space for all occupants, especially at the front where passengers can manually adjust their seat in six different ways. Drivers receive a configurable seven-inch instrument panel to view important information.

Infotainment is delivered by an eight-inch touchscreen with voice recognition and wireless smartphone compatibility. Speed Volume Control automatically adjusts the sound levels coming from the four speakers, depending on the speed at which you’re traveling.

Nissan Safety Shield 360

The S comes equipped with Nissan’s Safety Shield 360 to boost your confidence behind the wheel. Cruise control, lane keeping, and blind-spot monitoring help when your journey takes you on the highway while forward collision alert, rear automatic braking, and front pedestrian detection assist in the city. Rear sensors are also standard, making parking and reversing a breeze.

2. SV Plus

Building on the S, the SV Plus upgrades its inner workings to a 60 kWh battery, upping the output to 214 ponies and 250 pound-feet of torque. You also receive a high-output charging port for faster charging.

Design Highlights

The SV Plus gains more desirable external elements, including larger 17-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, and halogen fog lights. Inside, a comfort boost sees eight-way power-adjustable heated seats installed at the front. Also introduced are a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel and an auto-dimming rearview mirror to reduce glare at night.

An infotainment upgrade sees navigation integrated into the touchscreen and two extra speakers added to the audio system. Drivers now have a 360-degree monitor to view their LEAF’s surroundings. Nissan also gives its top trim ProPILOT Assist, which automatically keeps your LEAF centered in your chosen lane and maintains the distance from the vehicle ahead, even in stop-and-start traffic.

Both the S and SV Plus deliver performance, efficiency, and practicality for an affordable price. To explore the full LEAF lineup, contact us or head to Ed Martin Nissan in Indianapolis, IN, and find your new hatchback.
