Nissan Ariya lease ending in Oct, what should I get next?

,

6k give or take a few will be better for Prologue, for reference 5.7k FWD onepay was done by me in Dallas while I was visiting for a nephew.

I’d love to find one in NYC area for that price wow…but idk if any will bite…

No luck getting anyone to bite! I’ll wait for end of the month. What’s your strategy?

probably gonna go for the prologue

Also turning in an Ariya soon and looking at options. I could do a 25 bZ4X 36/10 for $370 effective. Never been in one but wouldn’t be excited to lock into that vehicle for 3 years.

Unless you have a Ariya Engage, you probably will not like the bZ4x
The sunroof doesn’t open. It’s a ‘fixed glass roof’

I would recommend Ioniq 5 but same thing, no opening sunroof.

Merc 250 / 300, range is the issue.

So I think the Prologue (which is being marketed heavily by Honda right now) might be the best choice unless you want the Audi q4 (but the insurance on an Audi is hair raising)

Equinox, Prologue, ZDX, Lyriq and etc are much better options and can probably be had for less than that.

I’m going to close out on a Touring Prologue AWD, @ 24/10 $6.3 Onepay

Market is tough in MN. Was expecting a lower deal.

Hesitant about the prologue but I guess if the price is right…

Posted on signed, I think it was a satisfactory deal for MN

tell us how it compares to the Ariya!

It is a bit of apples to oranges… different cars.

Well I was talking about the Infotainment and ride and acceleration.

Though aren’t the prologue and the Ariya roughly the same car type?

It’s not like I asked you to compare it to a i4 or an i8

The Prologue is overall bigger—about 9 in longer, nearly 3.5 in wider, and has a second-row-friendly wheelbase that’s over 12 in longer, despite being slightly lower in height compared to the Ariya.

Overall both have similar cargo space even though Ariya has a smaller footprint. Rear passenger room is better in Prologue.

The Ariya has better bolstering and nicer front seats no doubt and I’ll miss the ventilated seats in the summer.

Looks are subjective but Ariya looks nicer with body colored bumpers etc.
Honda is nice looking too…more athletic look.

Driving excitement is better in Ariya due to the better bhp and torque numbers. The Honda feels more stable and maybe a touch quieter. I have not driven enough but distinctly slower acceleration for Honda and being a larger is less agile vehicle and turning radius is noticeably bigger.

One pedal driving is possible with Honda vs. NOT with the Nissan.

Honda infotainment with Google ecosystem looks more polished. Not much experience yet…
One big flaw so far is I have not been able to make the Hondalink crap app..work…Looks like a known issue with resolution taking months. Nissan app was nothing great but atleast worked.

Driver aids, I’ll miss are the propilot 2.0 with handsfree driving and the 360 camera on the Ariya.

The charging is expected to be faster both AC and DC and I hear the energy management is better in the Honda.

Rest of the features are comparable.

Overall, I think I’ll be happy with the Honda paying $110 less per month and there is less chance of getting a speeding ticket :).

Hope this helps.

Thank you so much! That was a great commentary about the Prologue vs Ariya.

The 360 would be a deal breaker and I don’t think the Elite had any good offers right? I got the Evolve solely for the 360 and everything else was a bonus. But you are coming from sounds like a Platinum (Propilot 2.0 isn’t on the Evolve) so I can see your point.

My Evolve+ does have Pro Pilot 2.0

Lucky..mine didn’t.

I am returning my Ariya evolve+ next week but got the Prologue elite secured mid August. I enjoyed the Ariya but like the Prologue better. More comfortable ride and spacious. I like the look better and my brown leather interior looks beautiful
