Well, what do you think? On the surface, the new 2023 Nissan LEAF® and the new 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EV may appear to be very similar models, but upon closer inspection, it's clear which one is the better buy. The Nissan LEAF® is the only one of the pair that offers fog lights on its highest trim, a safety feature that strategically shines light through inclement weather so your car is lighting up the road, not making the weather conditions worsen. The Chevrolet Bolt EV has a charge port door, but it lacks a handy light that's helpful when charging your vehicle at night, and it doesn't offer an illuminated grille emblem, a design feature that's sure to turn heads on any city street. The Nissan LEAF®, on the other hand, does offer a charge port light and an illuminated grille emblem, as well as Siri® Eyes Free, a technology feature that gives drivers the ability to send text messages, make phone calls, ask for directions and more without moving their hands from the steering wheel.

It's the small variations that make the most difference when comparing two models. If you're curious what the new 2023 Nissan LEAF® is like in real life, take one for a spin at Giles Nissan Lafayette today!
