Nissan mobile tyre fitting

Both are crossovers with a higher centre of gravity than the hatchbacks they are based on, so tyre pressures and load ratings matter more than the size alone suggests. Both are also commonly run on all-season tyres in the UK, which is a reasonable choice for the way they are used.

The Leaf is heavier than its footprint suggests and, like any EV, applies full torque from rest. It specifies a higher load index than a comparable petrol hatchback and benefits from a low rolling resistance fitment - an inefficient tyre is directly visible in the range figure on an electric car in a way it never is on a petrol one.
