Nissan delays Ariya once again, will launch on May 12 in Japan
In a brief statement, Nissan announced that its fully-electric SUV Ariya will begin sales in Japan on May 12. That's yet another delay after the company was supposed to start shipments in late March.
Initially, the Ariya was scheduled for launch in 2021 but due to chip shortages induced by the COVID-19 pandemic, Nissan had to postpone. As of now, sales in Europe and the US should start sometime this summer and fall, respectively.

Electric Nissan Ariya to go from North Pole to South Pole
Do not try this at home! Chris Ramsey, who is behind the adventure and will be driving the Nissan Ariya, clearly does not pay attention to those warnings. Only a few years ago, together with his wife, he completed the Mongol Rally in the older version of a Nissan Leaf. Yes - 16,000 kilometers (9,940 miles) in an electric car across Europe and Asia. Range anxiety? Probably never heard of it.
It looks like the 16,000 km trek across Asia and Europe wasn’t enough to deter Mr Ramsey from more electric adventures as Nissan just announced it is going to partner with the adventurer on his journey from North Pole to South Pole.
The vehicle of choice for this adventure is Nissan Ariya which will have to be significantly modified to cope with the environment. Mongol Rally, despite being tough, is like a walk in a park compared to what is waiting for Chris on the 27,000 km (16,777 miles) drive.
Only around a third of that distance will be on paved roads, the only support will be offered by a non-modified Ariya which will accompany the adventurer while driving through North and South America. For the rest of the journey there will be no support available.

Electric Nissan embarks on 27 000km journey from North Pole to South Pole
A 27 000 kilometre cross-continent expedition is quite an accomplishment in any car, but when that vehicle is fully electric, suddenly it seems a lot more complicated.
But that’s not stopping British adventurer Chris Ramsey from undertaking the world’s first all-electric driving expedition, in partnership with Nissan, which will take him from the magnetic North Pole to the South Pole.
The journey is expected to commence in March 2023 and Ramsay will be driving a Nissan Ariya e-4ORCE, which is the Japanese carmaker’s latest battery-powered midsize crossover product. Predicted temperatures range from -30⁰C to 30⁰C.
If successful, Ramsey will be the first person to drive from pole to pole in a vehicle of any type as he makes his way from the Arctic through North, Central and South America, before crossing to Antarctica.
The route will take him through some of the world’s most extreme and brutal, yet beautiful scenery, from snow-covered glacial landscapes to treacherous mountain climbs and vast desert dunes.

Nissan stops taking orders for the Ariya in the US due to production delays
It seems like EV startups (looking at you, Lucid) aren't the only ones facing production delays for their newest models. In fact, big car makers are affected by various supply chain issues too - we recently saw VW announcing it ran out of EVs for the year, and now Nissan is following suit in the US.
The Japanese company has told its US dealers to stop taking orders for the 2023 Ariya EV, and you can't reserve one online anymore either. The website plainly states that "reservations are now closed".
The reason has to do with production of the EV being hit by supply chain issues which are causing delays. This is in fact not the first time either - Nissan also faced delays in getting the Ariya's production line up and running when the pandemic and chip shortage crisis both hit in 2020.
As a result of the latest problems, Nissan director Ashwani Gupta said the company chose to limit orders to what can realistically be delivered in a reasonable time frame, rather than make a lot of other eager customers have to wait too long for deliveries. Here's his full statement:

Nissan Ariya 63kWh Advance 2022 UK drive
All up, the Ariya feels different and capable enough to cause headaches in Wolfsburg, Gothenburg and Dearborn – and even Stuttgart and Munich. However, questions still hang over whether the range-topping e-4orce version, with its weightier dual-motor powertrain, bigger battery and lower-profile tyres, will be able to enhance the SUV’s dynamic credentials and significantly extend its range without denting its rolling refinement

Nissan Ariya electric crossover gets $43,190 starting price
Nissan has released the starting price of the Ariya electric crossover, the brand’s second all-electric vehicle. It starts at $43,190.
The Ariya is Nissan’s long-awaited second electric car to follow the Leaf.
The Japanese automaker built an early lead in all-electric vehicle with the Leaf, which launched in 2011, but it then sat on that lead for a long time as we are only seeing its second consumer EV now.
It got delayed several times. Nissan even announced deliveries and pricing last year, but it was delayed again.
A year later, Nissan is now again announcing pricing for the Ariya, but this time it is for the 2023 model year, and Nissan is promising it will deliver this time:

Nissan Ariya 87kWh e-4orce first drive
While the interior looks great, ergonomically it is a little off, with the buttons on the dashboard a bit awkward to reach out to, and the ones on the centre tunnel requiring an equally awkward bend of your arm to reach back and down to. Still, it feels a huge leap forward in perceived quality and pleasing design over the Nissan Leaf inside, which goes with the smart exterior looks and nice proportions. This is an electric car with real presence, and a confident style.
There will be people who’ll want the extra range, power and driven wheels, and be prepared to pay for them. The bigger battery adds £5750 to the list price and e-4orce an extra £2700. In doing so, they don’t make the Ariya any sweeter to drive, so the original verdict remains: the sweet spot in the range can be found much lower down.
