Nissan Leaf Window Sticker

The Nissan Leaf window sticker — build, options & years

The Nissan Leaf ran from 2011–2026. Its Monroney label captures exactly how each one left the factory — the build, the options it was optioned with and the price, including its electric range and MPGe rating.

Which year's sticker do I need? Any Nissan Leaf VIN works — ForCar reads the exact model year automatically. On owner data the cleanest years are 2017, 2022, 2023; the most-complained-about are 2019, 2020, 2015. For year-by-year recalls, MPG and safety, see the full Nissan Leaf VIN decoder.

What the Nissan Leaf sticker says about fuel

Fuel economy is a legally required block on every Monroney label — city, highway and combined figures plus the estimated annual fuel bill. These are the EPA numbers on file for the Leaf, latest tested year 2026:

The label also prints an estimated $650 a year in fuel at 15,000 miles. EPA files the Leaf under Small Station Wagons, which is the class it gets compared against on the sticker. Electric models are rated in MPGe — miles per gallon of energy equivalent, with 303 miles of EPA range.

How the Leaf's sticker figure changed

Combined MPG printed on the label, model year by model year — 2011 to 2026. Worth checking before you compare a Leaf sticker from one year with another:

Over that span the combined figure rose by 22 mpg, so an early sticker and a recent one describe noticeably different cars. EPA revised its testing method in 2008, which shifts figures printed before and after that year.

Safety ratings printed on the label

The second required block: NHTSA's five-star crash results. This is what the Leaf sticker carries as of its 2025 rating:

Stars are awarded per test, so a car can hold five overall and fewer for rollover — tall vehicles usually give ground there. Compare against every rated model in the safest cars ranking.

What a used Leaf sells for now

The label froze the Leaf price on the day it left the factory; the market has moved since, and this is where it landed: median asking price of the Leaf by model year, from 218 live US listings:

A 2025 Leaf asks a median $16,995 today, a 2011 about $2,995. Full breakdown on the Nissan Leaf value page.

What's on the Nissan Leaf sticker

Every Monroney label carries the same required blocks: MSRP with itemised options, EPA fuel economy — for this car 121 mpg combined, NHTSA safety ratings — 5 stars overall here, standard and optional equipment, and parts-content origin. Every Leaf VIN returns its own build rather than a generic spec.

For how to read each block, what to do if the sticker is lost, and how it differs from a build sheet, see the window sticker guide.

Where to find the VIN on a Nissan Leaf

1. WindshieldLower-left corner, driver's side, readable from outside without opening anything.
2. Door jambOn the driver's door frame of every Leaf, next to the tyre-pressure and build-date plate.
3. DocumentsRegistration, title and insurance card — on a Nissan Leaf all three must show the same number.

All four must match. A Nissan Leaf whose windshield plate disagrees with the door jamb has either had a panel replaced or a tampered identity — check the paperwork before any money changes hands.
