About the 2024 Nissan Ariya

The 2024 Nissan Ariya is a ev that earns a Carivo score of 7.8/10 — rated Recommended. Its strongest dimension is Safety at 8.9/10, while Performance at 7.0/10 is where it trails the competition most noticeably. It's a solid all-rounder that delivers across most dimensions without obvious deal-breakers.

Reliability and safety are the two dimensions that matter most for long-term ownership costs. The reliability picture is solid rather than spectacular: 7.1/10, which puts it comfortably above the class median. On safety, it scores 8.9/10 in our assessment. Always confirm the official crash-test results for your exact trim at nhtsa.gov/ratings.

With 7.0/10 for performance, this is a car tuned for daily driving rather than excitement — perfectly capable on the commute, unremarkable on a back road. On technology it rates 8.6/10: a modern, well-integrated suite that compares favorably with anything at this price point.

Priced from $40,440–$52,600, 105 MPG, seating 5, the Nissan Ariya sits in the mid-market bracket of the ev segment. At 7.7/10 for value, it delivers fair pricing for what's on offer, though the best alternatives in this price range score slightly higher. At 2 years old, it's recent enough that the core feature set holds up well against current competition.

Verdict: Nothing about the 2024 Nissan Ariya will scare a sensible buyer off. It scores consistently across the board, and it does what a good ev should — quietly and competently.
