Well, I have now had my 2025 Ariya Advance 63 , with the sliding panoramic roof, for just over 4 months, covering just over 3600 miles. The car is kept outside all year, so Pre – heating & cooling are a godsend, getting into a warm frost free car in winter (no window scraping or spraying ) or a cool ( a/c fully on) car in the summer is tremendous – 10 minutes costs about 4-5 miles of battery usage- well worth it. I get around 140-150 miles fully loaded travelling at 70+ on the motorway, and around 250- 300 miles rural/ around Town . As I use the car, mainly , locally, the 63 is ok for me – it charges slightly quicker and accelerates slightly better than the heavier bigger battery longer range version. As previously indicated, my last car was a Qashqai ePower, which i had for nearly three years and travelled over 30,000 miles – which until The Ariya arrived was the best of 6 other new Nissan Datsun models.I have owned —- overall, the Ariya is by far a better car than the any of the others, especially good on build quality! It is quick & stays very flat going around corners, and it has very nippy ‘instant ‘ acceleration surprisingly for a big heavy car, especially in Sport mode’ & it does it all in silence, and loads & loads of space inside. I have previously owned from ‘new’ , a Volvo XC 90, two XC60’s an XC 70 & a V60, plus Rovers, Fords, Vauxhalls,Triumphs, AustinMorris, WW Tiguan etcetc. And in my humble opinion, the Ariya is the best ‘overall’ of all these. I am impressed by & fully recommend the Ariya.
How is the audio, better or just the same as the QQ?
I don’t generally do over 60mi per day. My school run is around 32mi round trip. If I do use the motorway, it’s never over 60mph on ProPilot. I also have a private off road drive for my home.
I have ASD and thus have difficulty with social and understanding information, written and verbal. I process information in logical blocks, before I reply. Sometimes I'm right and sometimes I'm wrong.
I also have a corneal visual condition, which makes me visually impaired without daytime, or daytime bulbs, among other disabilities/conditions.
