Nissan has blazed a path forward in the lunch, development and evolution of electric vehicles thanks to its groundbreaking Nissan Leaf electric vehicle. The Nissan range includes its birth child Nissan Leaf, Nissan Ariya and soon to launch Nissan Warrior. The company now has an established range of plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles. We receive requests for EV chargers for new Nissan and used Nissan EVs when a replacement or faster portable EV charger is needed. Many owners prefer to make their own choice in EV chargers rather than 3rd party auto manufacturer affiliations, which can be much more expensive or where there is little information. For Nissan, many EV owners prefer to upgrade a more powerful level 2 Nissan EV Charger. We recommend our level 2 NEMA 14-50 9.6 kWh Nissan EV charger, which can be fixed or portable. This is significantly faster than level 1 provided Nissan EV Chargers. Like many manufacturers, the Nissan fleet is less focused on residential charging solutions and so many customers use our service to find the right Nissan level 2 EV charger and installation options.
Nissan’s electric vehicle (EV) fleet has been expanding as part of the company’s commitment to a sustainable, electric future. With a diverse lineup that includes the Nissan Leaf, Nissan Ariya, and upcoming models like the Nissan N200 EV van, Nissan is focused on providing affordable, accessible electric vehicles for a wide range of customers.
The company continues to innovate, offering vehicles with various battery sizes and ranges to suit unique needs, while enhancing its charging infrastructure. Nissan EV models are well-suited for Level 2 charging and DC fast charging, making them convenient and practical for everyday use.
Nissan has partnered with several charging networks, including ChargePoint, to enhance the convenience and accessibility of charging for its EV owners.

Nissan EVs use the J1772 Type 1 EV charger connector, the North American standard for most EVs in the U.S. The charging port is located on the driver’s side, either on the front or rear fender, depending on the model.
Nissan EVs are not compatible with Tesla’s NACS charging connectors.
Most Nissan EV owners prefer home charging due to its convenience, faster charging times, and lower costs. A 240-Volt Level 2 EV charger allows owners to complete a full charge in 8-10 hours, depending on the model.
Nissan EVs are also compatible with DC fast charging, supporting up to 80% charge in 30-45 minutes. However, commercial charging is more expensive, costing around 50¢/kWh compared to 10¢/kWh for home charging.
Charging costs vary depending on location, time of day, and electricity rates. Below are estimated costs based on U.S. averages:
