Leather-appointed seats

7.0-inch color display with NissanConnect and navigation

Premium audio system (e.g., Bose speakers)

Around View® Monitor (360° camera system)

Automatic climate control and convenience features

Solar panel spoiler to support 12 V battery charging

(Feature availability can vary depending on packages and original dealer options.)

ðŸ"‰ Fuel Economy & Efficiency

EPA MPGe: ~124 city / 101 highway / ~114 combined.

Instant torque from the electric motor makes it responsive in everyday driving.

🧠 Safety & Ratings

Includes standard ABS, multiple airbags, traction and stability control.

Specific government/NHTSA or IIHS ratings for the 2017 Leaf vary, but similar model years often earned solid frontal and roof strength ratings while some crash areas received mixed results.

ðŸ'¡ Considerations for Buyers (Used Market)

On the used market today, a 2017 LEAF SL typically trades for significantly below original MSRP, often in the $6,000â€"$10,000 range nationally depending on condition, mileage, and battery health.

Battery degradation over years can affect real-world range; some owners report lower practical range than original EPA figures. Battery health varies by climate and usage.

Nissan’s original battery warranty (8 years/100,000 miles) covered excessive capacity loss.
