Just for fun I felt under the car to see if any heat was radiating... and I found... plastic. You know it would be so simple just to thermally connect each battery module to a metal plate that is exposed to the air (or water that splashes) under the car. Just let the heat radiate off naturally. Nissan doesn't even do that.
Andy Palmer alluded to such things in the Tempe meeting. Any number of ways to get heat out of the pack; not all involve active cooling.
