The Nissan Leaf ran as a first generation from 2010 to 2017 and a second generation from 2018 onwards, and these two generations use completely different bodyshells, so the tailgates are not interchangeable across that boundary. Always confirm the generation of both donor and recipient vehicles with the breaker against your registration before purchasing.
The first-generation Leaf received a facelift in 2013, and while both versions share the same overall platform, whether the tailgate pressing changed between those model years is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration rather than assume. Name the exact year of your car and the donor car when contacting a breaker so they can verify the part numbers match.
Both a 2019 and a 2022 Leaf sit within the second generation, which ran from 2018 onwards, so there is a reasonable chance of compatibility. However, whether Nissan made any mid-generation pressing changes to the tailgate during that run is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration before buying.
Trim level does not affect tailgate fitment on the Nissan Leaf — the same shell is used across Visia, Acenta, and Tekna grades within the same generation. You may find cosmetic differences such as a spoiler, different badge positions, or a rear wiper finisher depending on the donor car's spec, so factor that in if appearance matters to you.
The Leaf e+ uses the same second-generation bodyshell as the standard Leaf, and the larger battery option does not affect the body panels. Whether there are any subtle pressing or badging differences on the tailgate between e+ and standard models is worth confirming with the breaker against your registration, though fitment is very likely to be the same.
Give the breaker your full registration number so they can verify the generation and model year of your car against the donor vehicle, as generation and model year are the key factors for tailgate fitment on the Leaf. Trim level can be ignored for fitment purposes, but do ask the breaker about any cosmetic differences such as spoilers or badging so you know what to expect from the second-hand part.
