The terminology is confusing isn't it? As far as I can tell:

LEAF 3.ZERO - 40kWh
LEAF +e 3.ZERO Limited Edition - 62kWh

Gloucester, it would appear that the differences are basically the Battery changes as noted- Dave :)

Nissan has confirmed the evolution of the highly successful LEAF electric vehicle (EV) by announcing two versions of the LEAF 3.ZERO. The new LEAF 3.ZERO models will feature both e-Pedal and ProPILOT.

The new LEAF 3.ZERO features the 40 kWh Battery with 192 cells. This produces 110kW (150PS) and 320Nm of Torque, range of 270 Kms

The new Nissan LEAF e+ 3.ZERO Limited edition features a 62 kWh Battery with 288 cells and a range increase of 40%. Benefits from a higher output 160kW (217 PS) and longer range of 385 Kms on a single charge. At the centre of the new LEAF e+ 3.ZERO Limited Edition is an Intelligent Power-enhanced battery. It has 25% more density and a 55% increase in energy storage capacity.

For exceptional customer confidence, the new LEAF 3.ZERO and new LEAF e+ 3.ZERO Limited Edition batteries come with the same eight-year/160,000 km Nissan warranty enjoyed by all other versions of the LEAF

Well it wasn't difficult to improve on the ugly previous one.

I have to say I'm very impressed with the Leaf - apart from the price and the brand. If reliability is not an issue longer term, it would potentially be a great two-three-year-old buy.

(But then I'm very impressed with my current car too! :) )
