Be very glad NY wasn't on the early delivery list. You could of used the opportunity to watch the AZ early deliveries die early deaths from heat. You'd have a better understanding of what you were getting in to. I'm just glad the Soul EV has chademo. With the spark pretty much a non starter - it means the SAE's franken-plug will most likely die on the vine.NYLEAF said:............snip.......... My understanding is that the law changes in 2018, meaning that any compliance EVs will have to be sold in all ZEV states to qualify. Fuel Cell vehicles will still allowed to be sold in CA only past 2018.
Nissan, on the other hand, annoyed me by delaying the release of the Leaf in NY for 14 months after it was first sold in CA. Non-ZEV states like Texas and Florida had the Leaf many months before we could get it here in NY -- and it wasn't due to infrastructure, because both FL and NY had 0 QCs for at least a year after the Leaf was sold in those states.
As for FC cars . . . . . they'll likely only be leased . . . . and only after they force other drivers to pony up hundreds of millions in motor vehicle fees to build a horribly small amount of hydrogen fueling stations.
