Home and Destination Charging (0 -> 100%)

Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the Nissan Ariya e-4ORCE 87kWh - 225 kW. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.

Europe

Charging an EV in Europe differs by country. Some European countries primarily use 1-phase connections to the grid, while other countries are almost exclusively using a 3-phase connection. The table below shows all possible ways the Nissan Ariya e-4ORCE 87kWh - 225 kW can be charged, but some modes of charging might not be widely available in certain countries.

Fast Charging (10 -> 80%)

Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the Nissan Ariya e-4ORCE 87kWh - 225 kW.

Max. Power: maximum power provided by charge point
Avg. Power: average power provided by charge point over a session from 10% to 80%
Time: time needed to charge from 10% to 80%
Rate: average charging speed over a session from 10% to 80%

Combined Charging System (CCS Combo 2)

Charging Point	Max. Power	Avg. Power	Time	Rate
CCS (50 kW DC)	50 kW	45 kW †	85 min	200 km/h
CCS (100 kW DC)	100 kW	85 kW †	45 min	370 km/h
CCS (150 kW DC)	130 kW †	110 kW †	35 min	480 km/h

This vehicle supports Autocharge
This vehicle does not support Plug & Charge

† = Limited by charging capabilities of vehicle

Autocharge: allows for automatic initiation of a charging session at supported CCS charging stations.

Plug & Charge: allows for automatic initiation of a charging session at supported CCS charging stations in accordance with ISO 15118.

Actual charging rates may differ from data shown due to factors like outside temperature, state of the battery and driving style.

Nissan Ariya e-4ORCE 87kWh – 225 kW Range and Battery Specifications

Officially, the Nissan Ariya e-4ORCE 87kWh with 225 kW dual‑motor AWD offers up to 514 km WLTP range depending on trim, slightly less than the 2WD 87 kWh model (up to 532 km WLTP). In real‑world mixed driving, you can expect roughly 380–430 km (235–270 miles) under typical conditions, with highway speeds and cold weather reducing that figure.

The Ariya 87 kWh models use a liquid‑cooled lithium‑ion battery with around 91 kWh gross capacity and approximately 87 kWh usable. Typical efficiency for this version is in the region of 180–210 Wh/km (290–340 Wh/mi), depending on driving style, speed, and climate. Like any EV, range is influenced by temperature, terrain, and how often you exploit the available power.
