The Award-Winning All-New Nissan LEAF is Arriving Soon at Dicksons
Three awards. One incredible electric car. And it's coming soon to Dicksons.
The All-New Nissan LEAF has officially been crowned 2026 Auto Express Car of the Year – and it's easy to see why.
The third generation of Nissan's iconic electric vehicle has made an immediate impression, picking up not one, not two, but three major awards at the prestigious Auto Express New Car Awards:
- 2026 Car of the Year
- Affordable Electric Car of the Year
- Small Company Car of the Year
It's a remarkable achievement for the latest version of the car that helped put electric driving on the map over 15 years ago.
Britain's Best New Car?
Auto Express praised the All-New LEAF for delivering an outstanding combination of long-range capability, premium comfort and exceptional value.
With up to 386 miles of WLTP range, a refined driving experience and competitive pricing, the judges described it as an EV that rivals simply can't match.
Richard Ingram, Deputy Editor of Auto Express, said:
"Against every yardstick, Nissan's LEAF is an outstanding Car of the Year. Rivals can't beat its mix of long range and keen pricing... Add in a premium ride quality, tight handling and an interior that offers impressive space wrapped in a dynamic design, and its victory is richly deserved."
And perhaps even better? It's designed and built right here in Britain, with production taking place at Nissan's Sunderland plant.

The All-New LEAF isn't just about impressive range.
Inside, you'll find a spacious, modern cabin packed with technology designed to make every journey easier and more enjoyable, including Google built-in for seamless navigation, entertainment and connectivity.
