After cutting prices, the Nissan Ariya is being offered with leases as low as $199 per month. At these rates, Nissan’s electric SUV could be one of the best EVs to lease currently.

Nissan was viewed as a pioneer releasing the first mass-market EV in the US, the LEAF, in 2010. The automaker followed it up with its second global EV and first all-electric SUV, the Nissan Ariya.

The Ariya (see our review here) went on sale last fall in the US and is already outselling the compact LEAF EV.

Over 4,500 Ariya electric SUVs were sold in Q3, compared to around 1,500 LEAFs. Recent price cuts will likely help boost sales.

According to online auto research firm CarsDirect, the Nissan Ariya is being offered with lease prices as low as $199 per month. In NY, the Ariya is listed at $199 per month for 18 months, with $4,379 due up front. The deals vary by region.

This amounts to over $10,000 in savings with $9,280 in lease cash and an extra $1,000 bonus incentive.

Nissan’s lower prices could be due to changes in how it handles the EV tax credit. The company is now passing the credit on through a loophole with leases.

Although the 2024 Nissan LEAF S price is nearly $16,000 less than the Ariya, it’s only $79 more a month to lease. The model is offered at $289 for 36 months with $2,649 at signing.

Meanwhile, Tesla’s Model Y, starting at $43,990, can be leased for as low as $554 per month. Tesla’s website promotes monthly lease prices for as low as $399, but that includes the $7,500 tax credit.

Nissan’s latest deal on the Ariya is a steal. Ready to grab some of the lowest lease prices on Nissan’s electric SUV yet? You can use our link to find great deals on the Ariya EV at a dealership near you today.
