The Advance is the highest trim with the smaller 63kWh battery pack option in the Australian Nissan Ariya line-up.
Pricing for this variant starts from $59,840 before on-road costs.

As standard the Ariya Advance comes with 19-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, a hands-free power tailgate, dual 12.3-inch screens, wireless Apple CarPlay and wired Android Auto, a wireless phone charger, a 10-speaker Bose sound system, dual-zone climate control, a heated front seats and steering wheel, as well as black cloth and synthetic leather upholstery.

Standard safety equipment includes seven airbags, autonomous emergency braking (AEB), blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keeping assist, lane centring, adaptive cruise control, driver attention alert, front and rear parking sensors, as well as surround-view cameras.

The Ariya Advance is powered by a single, front-mounted electric motor that produces 160kW and 300Nm. This is fed by a 63kWh lithium-ion battery pack with a WLTP-claimed driving range of 385km.

A Type 2 CCS combination charge port is standard. DC charging is offered at rates up to 130kW, which would see the battery charge from 10 to 80 per cent in 35 minutes.

AC charging, on the other hand, is offered at rates up to 7.4kW, which would see the battery charge from 10 to 100 per cent in nine hours.

Jack Quick has proven himself as one of the most prolific motoring journalists despite still being relatively fresh to the industry. He joins the CarsGuide team after spending four years at CarExpert in various roles. Growing up on a farm in regional Victoria, Jack has been driving cars since before he could even see over the wheel. He also had plenty of experience operating heavy machinery. In fact, he currently holds a Heavy Rigid license. On the farm, Jack spent a lot of time bush bashing in his family’s 1992 Suzuki Sierra soft-top and 1985 Holden Drover ute, and this helped fuel his life-long obsession with cars. He currently owns a 2020 Suzuki Jimny for nostalgic purposes. A detail-oriented person with a huge flair for the creative, Jack does competitive hip-hop dancing outside of work. His team, Pacific Elite Sirens, recently competed at the 2025 Dance Worlds and placed 12th place in their division.
