Nissan is not an innovative electric car company; They are, like many of the legacy auto companies, choosing to run center pack after a strong thrust into EVs initially and using DOE money to build EV/ICEV duel factories, they backed off and chose to go to sleep until everyone caught up and Tesla started pushing. Nissan's policies are based on what they know and that's ICEVs which easily explains their lack of investment and thus advancement in timely improving the range of their batteries. It also explains their decision to not offer upgraded batteries for their older model Leafs...they simply don't want to be bothered by customers.[/quote]
Very true.
