Nissan Leaf 52kWh

The Nissan Leaf 52kWh reaches 60 mph in 7.66 s (100 km/h in 8.24 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.15 s, tripping the lights at 81.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.41 s and the eighth mile in 10.18 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

About the Leaf 52kWh

The 2025 Nissan Leaf 52kWh is a front-drive electric car of 1,524 kg with 174 bhp, which works out at 114 bhp per tonne. With full torque from a standstill it clears the first 60 ft in 2.41 s, and the question for an electric car is usually not the launch but whether it keeps pulling: it trips the quarter-mile lights at 81.3 mph. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 5,864th quickest to 60 mph, and the 62nd quickest of the 263 Nissans here. It leaves better than it pulls: 81.3 mph at the lights is only the 9,298th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Nissan Leaf 52kWh 0-60 time?
The Nissan Leaf 52kWh reaches 60 mph in 7.66 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 5,864th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Nissan Leaf 52kWh quarter mile time?
16.15 s at 81.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.18 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.41 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Nissan Leaf 52kWh have?
174 bhp and 1,524 kg, which is 114 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, electric, with 1 gears and a quoted top speed of 160 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Nissan Leaf 52kWh?
Closest here on pace: Fiat Croma I.e. Turbo (155 PS) 1A Serie) (Pre-Facelift (7.65 s), Lancia Thema i.e. Turbo 2.0 8V Mk I 165 PS (7.68 s), Alfa Romeo GTV 2.0 JTS 165 (7.64 s). Each one can be raced against the Nissan Leaf 52kWh in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Nissan Leaf 52kWh is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
