Nissan's initial delivery of Ariya electric vehicles reaches Australian shores
The much-anticipated Nissan Ariya electric SUV is set to make its way to Australian dealerships in early September 2025 [1][2][3][4][5]. Customers can already place orders online and through dealerships, with the official sales launch planned for the same month.
Produced at Nissan's Tochigi Plant in Japan, the Ariya will be supplied to the Australian market. The vehicle comes in four variants: Engage, Advance, Advance+, and Evolve e-4orce, offering a range of features and prices to suit different needs. The pricing before on-road costs for the Engage variant is $55,840 [2][4].
The Ariya will feature a 12.3-inch infotainment screen and a 12.5-inch driver screen, providing a modern and user-friendly interface. The SUVs will also come equipped with Wireless Apple CarPlay and wired Android Auto [1].
The complete Ariya lineup includes the Engage, Advance, Advance+, and Evolve e-4orce variants, each offering different battery capacities. The batteries provide ranges between 385 km and 504 km, ensuring a suitable range for various daily commutes and road trips [1]. Both 2WD and AWD versions will be available.
Warwick Daly, the deputy head of marketing and bobility at Nissan Australia, stated that the Ariya represents the next chapter of the company's electric vision [5]. Riz Akhtar, the founder of carloop in Melbourne, a company specialising in Australian EV data, insight reports, and trends, shared his enthusiasm for the Ariya. As a mechanical engineer with a passion for EVs, Riz aims to reduce transport emissions in Australia [5].
Nissan Australia has announced that the first Ariya electric SUVs have set sail from Japan and are en route to Australia [3]. The launch was delayed due to Australian Design Rules and supply constraints prioritizing other markets, but Nissan considers the timing smart to avoid harsh price competition [5].
The Nissan Ariya comes with a long ten-year 300,000 km warranty when serviced by a Nissan dealer network across the country [1]. Two interior color options are available for the Nissan Ariya: black (in all variants except Evolve) and blue nappa leather (in the Evolve variant) [1].
