Why did they have to make it a Murano? The only thing I thought was nice about the original leaf was that it was smaller than most electric cars.

The size is about the same with a lower drag coefficient.

The 2026 Leaf is 3 inches shorter (76 mm) than the current hatchback, although the wheelbase is only 0.4 inches (10 mm) shorter. The new Leaf is 0.8 inches (20 mm) wider but the same height as the old car, and has a lower drag coefficient.
