2026 Nissan Leaf 52 kWh FWD has the higher listed output at 177 hp; 2025 Citroën e-C4 e-C4 Electric is rated at 156 hp, a difference of 21 hp. The torque figures follow 2026 Nissan Leaf 52 kWh FWD at 345 Nm and 2025 Citroën e-C4 e-C4 Electric at 260 Nm. These figures describe straight-line potential only; they do not establish braking performance, ride quality, steering response or durability under repeated hard use.
Range, battery, charging and efficiency
Range and energy-use figures are either not shared by both cars or not directly comparable across these powertrain types.
Dimensions, cargo space and towing
2026 Nissan Leaf 52 kWh FWD provides the larger quoted cargo volume: 437 litres versus 380 litres, a difference of 57 litres. 2025 Citroën e-C4 e-C4 Electric is 10 mm longer overall. Exterior size is not a benefit by itself: a longer body may create useful room, but cargo shape, rear-seat space and ease of parking still require a physical inspection.
Price and overall assessment
2026 Nissan Leaf 52 kWh FWD leads in more of the shared headline fields, but that is not a universal verdict: a buyer should weight price, performance, range and utility rather than simply count category wins. The assessment is based on the specifications shown here; it is not presented as a two-car road test.
