2025 Nissan Ariya: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The 2025 Nissan Ariya is a light update, led by wireless phone charging becoming standard across the lineup. Nissan also drops the Venture+ and Empower+ trims, while the batteries, motors, safety features, and overall styling carry over without major changes.
About the 2025 Nissan Ariya
1st generation ARIYA (U.S. launch for 2023), third and final U.S. model year.
Nissan positions Ariya as its design-led electric crossover: a quiet, upscale-feeling EV with a lounge-like cabin, dual-screen dashboard, and available e-4ORCE all-wheel drive. Rather than chasing maximum performance, the model leans into comfort, cabin atmosphere, and easy daily use. For most shoppers, Ariya is Nissan’s more premium everyday EV above the Leaf, aimed at commuting, family errands, and road trips in a stylish compact SUV shape.
The 2025 Ariya range starts with Engage models that pair dual 12.3-inch displays and a head-up display with heated seats and a sliding center console. Evolve+ focuses on longer range and added convenience, while Platinum+ e-4ORCE is the comfort-and-tech flagship with AWD, Nappa leather, cooled front seats, automated parking, and limited hands-free highway driving.
