The Nissan LEAF has earned plenty of attention, accolades, and
awards for its eco-friendly, smooth performing powertrain. The automaker’s
suite of advanced safety tech is enviable, too. For 2020, the cargo space in the
hatchback is garnering praise. U.S. News & World Report named it to its
list of the 10
Hatchbacks with the Most Cargo Space in 2020.
Available Now: 2020 Nissan LEAF
“Some hatchbacks offer the utility of small SUVs while delivering impressive overall driving dynamics. Hatchbacks also benefit from their small footprints and lightweight, which makes many of them peppy, nimble, maneuverable, and fuel-efficient,” according to U.S. News & World Report writer Steven Loveday.
The U.S. News editors focused on hatchbacks since the model
style surpasses what most sedans can offer. After evaluating cargo space of
hatchbacks on the market, the U.S. News’ editors whittled the vehicles into a
10 best list, putting the LEAF in its number 5 spot.
The 2020 Nissan LEAF, which is available at two trim levels —
S and SV, boasts a maximum cargo space of 30 cubic feet, and behind the rear seats,
it reveals 23.6 cubic feet of space. The standard 60/40 split fold-down rear
seats in the LEAF allow you to customize space for your passengers and cargo.
But, it is not just cargo space that makes hatchbacks a desirable and versatile option.
“The LEAF features
eager acceleration, composed handling, and intuitive technology. It has
impressive passenger space in both rows and a large cargo area behind its rear
seats,” notes Loveday.
