Nissan Leaf: Cheapest in Europe, expensive in Asia
The Leaf was the first mass-produced vehicle that was exclusively designed as an electric car. For a long time, it was the world's best-selling electric vehicle, most recently in 2019. In the meantime, it has fallen to 7th place in the registration statistics, with Tesla's Model 3 now dominating by a wide margin.
The Nissan Leaf is produced in three factories worldwide, in Japan (Oppama), in the US state of Tennessee (Smyrna), and in Sunderland, UK. "Compare the market" has now configured a Nissan Leaf in 53 countries and compared the prices. Each time, the Leaf with the 40 kWh battery in the base configuration was ordered.
The purchase of a Leaf costs an astonishing 122,271 euros in the most expensive country, Singapore, followed by Argentina (57,568 euros) and Thailand (51,735 euros).
The three cheapest countries are all located in Europe. According to the list price, Spain is the cheapest place to buy a Leaf at 21,000 euros. Currently, the price in Spain is even reduced to 17,733 euros due to a government subsidy program. Following Spain are Malta at 21,300 euros and then Europe's electric vehicle nation, Norway, at 22,639 euros. Germany is in the middle range, with the Japanese electric car costing 29,990 euros here.
What does that mean?
Singapore regulates vehicle registrations through very high taxes, so it is not really comparable in terms of prices. In Spain, you can get 3 Nissan Leafs for the price of the vehicle in Argentina - and you still have over 4,000 Euros left for charging the vehicle. Twisted world economy.
