Normal weather, 100 km, 200 Wh/km consumption from vehicle data.
Each row uses that country's latest stored grid row, dated in the Grid data column; rows marked "Latest available" are older than 90 days and are not current.
Estimated energy cost at each country's average electricity market price · day-ahead market (Germany, France); residential retail average (United States); public charging tariffs are usually higher.
CO₂ = energy × grid average carbon intensity. A dash means that value is not available.
Range by Weather Condition

Estimated range from this vehicle's listed real-world consumption and battery capacity.
Assumptions behind these numbers
Model assumptionUsable battery: 100% of the listed 40.0 kWh (the listed capacity may be gross or net; no correction is applied).
Model assumptionSpeed: consumption starts from this vehicle's listed real-world efficiency of 200 Wh/km, times a speed factor of 1.00 (1.00 = no speed adjustment).
Vehicle dataWeather: Hot (25 °C and above) uses this vehicle's own factor 0.95, so consumption is 200 x 1.00 / 0.95 = 211 Wh/km.
Vehicle dataWeather: Normal (10-25 °C) uses this vehicle's own factor 1.00, so consumption is 200 x 1.00 / 1.00 = 200 Wh/km.
Vehicle dataWeather: Cold (below 10 °C) uses this vehicle's own factor 0.70, so consumption is 200 x 1.00 / 0.70 = 286 Wh/km.
MethodRange, energy and cost all use the same consumption figure. Energy is measured at the battery; charging losses are not included.
Where these specs come from
Battery basisThe source does not say whether the listed 40.0 kWh is gross or usable. The trip engine uses it as usable energy.
EstimateReal-world range 200 km is a site estimate, not a manufacturer figure.
DerivedDerived: listed battery capacity x 1000 / real-world range estimate = about 200 Wh/km. The range is a site estimate, so this is not a measured consumption figure.
In cold weather (below 10 °C), the estimated range of this vehicle is
140 km (87 mi)
(-30% vs normal conditions).
Among the routes in our database, these are the longest ones where the estimate needs more charging stops in cold weather than in normal weather, so they need careful planning in winter:
The Nissan Leaf 40 kWh delivers a real-world range of 200 km under mixed conditions, which is a 26% reduction from its WLTP figure of 270 km. In cold weather, the 0.7 multiplier reduces range to 140 km, a concrete figure that means a 100 km round trip requires careful charging planning. The 50 kW maximum DC charging speed is a significant limitation for road trips, as it translates to roughly 30-40 minutes to charge from 10% to 80% on a CHAdeMO plug, which is slower than many modern EVs and can add considerable time to longer journeys. The hot weather multiplier of 0.95 yields 190 km, a more usable but still modest range. With a 40 kWh battery and efficiency of 200 Wh/km, the Leaf is best suited for urban and suburban driving where its short range and moderate charging speed are less of a hindrance. Drivers should expect to rely on destination or overnight charging for daily use, and plan for extended stops on any highway trip.
