Automotive News reports that a memo sent to dealers confirms that Nissan is halting production of U.S. market Ariyas for 2026.

The Ariya is built in Japan, which now receives a 15% import tariff. No word on if the Ariya will eventually return to the U.S. lineup.

I know it’s naive to hope that people would be courteous but two Niro EVs “fast” charging at LVL 2 speeds hogging the 350kW chargers is so annoying.
