A used differential that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:
Both years fall within the first-generation Leaf (Mk1, 2011–2017), so there is a reasonable chance the differential will interchange, but Nissan did make running production changes during that generation that can affect ancillary fittings and mounting points. Confirm with the breaker against both registrations before buying, as they can cross-reference the part numbers to be sure.
This question crosses the generation boundary: the Mk1 Leaf ran from 2011 to 2017, while the Mk2 Leaf launched in 2018 with a revised platform and a different electric motor and drivetrain layout. These are not expected to be interchangeable, but confirm with the breaker against both registrations to be certain before purchasing.
No, trim level does not affect differential fitment on the Nissan Leaf — Acenta, Tekna, and other grades all share the same drivetrain within the same generation. What matters is the generation (Mk1 2011–2017, Mk2 2018 onwards) and the motor variant, so supply your registration to the breaker and let them match on those details rather than on trim.
Within the Mk1 Leaf, Nissan offered different battery pack sizes over the years, and the Mk2 introduced the 62 kWh e-Plus variant alongside the standard 40 kWh car; these variants can use different motor and drivetrain configurations. Because of this, confirm with the breaker against your specific registration rather than assuming all Leaf differentials within a generation are identical.
Both years sit within the Mk2 generation (2018 onwards), so fitment is plausible, but you should confirm with the breaker whether the donor car is a standard 40 kWh model or the higher-output e-Plus, as these use different motor assemblies that may affect the differential. Always cross-reference on registration to account for any mid-production changes.
The Leaf e-Plus uses a larger, more powerful motor than the standard Mk2 Leaf, and the differential and drivetrain components are not expected to be a straight swap into the standard car. Route this question to the breaker and provide both registrations so they can compare part numbers and advise whether any adaptation would be needed.
