Differences Between EVs and ICE | Greenville, MS
Are you considering upgrading to an electric vehicle? You’re not alone. EVs like the Nissan LEAF® and ARIYA are growing in popularity with drivers throughout Mississippi and across America. Not just because they’re fun to drive and can help you save tons of money on fuel — but because they’re easier and more affordable to maintain. Let’s explore the differences between an electric vehicle and a combustion engine-powered car when it comes to routine maintenance.
One thing you don’t hear people who own EVs talk about is how much they miss having to get their oil changed. When you own an electric vehicle like the Nissan LEAF® or ARIYA, you will never have to worry about another oil change again. In fact, EVs tend to need less maintenance because they lack so many components that are critical for gas-powered vehicles, including fuel pumps, starters, and exhaust systems. That means you can expect to pay less in maintenance costs over time, saving you big money in the long run.
Of course, you’ll still need to keep up to date on some of the same key services your current car needs. Tire rotations and balancing, brake repair and replacement, swapping out the windshield wipers, and EV-specific multi-point inspections are a must. But with less frequent maintenance, you should notice a bit extra cash in savings after a few years of ownership. That means more money to spend on experiences like vacations or road trips — which you can also conveniently enjoy in your Nissan LEAF® or ARIYA.
And Nissan makes owning and maintaining its newest EV even easier. The ARIYA comes with EV Carefree+, a comprehensive package that covers maintenance among other things. EV Carefree+ includes three years or 36,000 miles — whichever comes first — of pre-paid scheduled maintenance as well as a Tire Hazard Protection package. And you get the confidence of an eight-year or 100,000-mile Limited Battery Warranty.
Fewer maintenance visits and no more oil changes can add up to big savings, and that’s a great perk of owning a Nissan LEAF® or ARIYA. But it’s far from the only reason why you may want to consider going electric with your next new vehicle in Greenville, Mississippi. Both vehicles are a lot of fun to drive, offer exceptional range, and come packed with advanced technologies. Plus, they give you all the great advantages of an engine-powered vehicle, including exceptional passenger and cargo space for a growing family.
The Nissan LEAF® was the first mass-produced EV to hit America when it debuted, and it stands today as one of the best affordable electric vehicles around. Starting under $30,000 MSRP[2] before any available tax credits and returning up to 212 miles of range on a full charge,[3] the new LEAF® makes it easy to save time and money. But it’s also a heck of a lot of fun to drive thanks to its nimble handling and instant torque.
The Nissan ARIYA looks and drives like a luxury SUV, but it’s so much more. The ARIYA offers ProPULOT Assist 2.0, which enables hands-free highway driving and lane change assistance on highways including I-20 and I-55. And it’s got enough max range that you can make the drive down to New Orleans without having to stop once along the way to charge.[4]
The team here at James Ceranti Nissan would love to share some of the great advantages of owning an electric vehicle, including lower maintenance and fuel costs. If you’re curious about what the LEAF® and ARIYA can do and why they’d make great choices for your next new vehicle, reach out to us with your questions or stop in and see us at our showroom in Greenville, Mississippi.
