I drove Nissan's new $50,000 Ariya SUV. It's an elegant, high-tech EV with some annoying flaws

• The Nissan Ariya is a compact electric SUV that debuted in 2023.
• I was impressed by the Ariya's design, a quiet and comfortable cabin, and competitive pricing.
• I was disappointed with its slow charging rate and features that detract from the user experience.

You might not know it, but Nissan is one of the top-selling EV brands in the world.
