The all-electric Nissan ARIYA is finally coming to Australia this September, and for novated lease buyers, it could be one of the most exciting EV options of the year. With sleek Japanese design, a high-tech interior, and a choice of two battery sizes, the ARIYA blends style, practicality, and running cost advantages that work perfectly in a salary packaging arrangement.
Two Battery Options – Choose Your Range
With 63kWh and 87kWh battery choices, the ARIYA’s WLTP range spans from 385km to 504km. Whether your commute is all city streets or includes longer weekend drives, there’s a variant to fit. Fast-charging capability of up to 130kW DC means a 10–80% top-up in around 35 minutes, perfect for road trips or quick stops.
Stylish Inside and Out
Nissan’s “Timeless Japanese Futurism” design makes the ARIYA stand out in the car park without being over the top. Inside, the cabin has a flat floor, minimalist dashboard, soft ambient “Andon” lighting, and an available powered sliding centre console on higher trims. Every variant features dual 12.3-inch displays, wireless Apple CarPlay, wired Android Auto, and a wireless phone charger.
Comfort Meets Performance
The entry-level Engage and Advance deliver smooth and efficient driving, while the top Evolve e-4ORCE offers 600Nm of torque, AWD stability, and a 0–100km/h time of 5.6 seconds. That’s sports-car quick, but in a family-friendly SUV body. Heated seats, panoramic glass roof, Bose premium audio, and head-up display are available as you move up the range.
Safety Comes Standard
Every ARIYA is equipped with Nissan Intelligent Mobility safety tech, including ProPILOT⁺ adaptive cruise and lane-keep assist, blind spot intervention, emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, and a 360° Around View Monitor on selected models.

- Servicing certainty – Nissan’s Five-year Flat Price Servicing Program locks in predictable costs.
- Long warranty – Nissan’s service-activated 10-year/300,000km warranty gives peace of mind over the lease term.
