Hi everyone! I've been working on a tool to help people who are thinking about getting a "next generation" EV decide which one fits their needs best. The data so far is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KxeJsSoqptmlaJXNvP1eO25-j31oOz4eStoPnz0YNRY/edit?usp=sharing Right now, it's...

I'd love for Nissan to offer an *official* fender skirt kit for the rear wheels. If they don't, you know people are just going to make them on their own to add an extra ~5 miles range or so and corresponding charge time reduction. If Nissan did it, we could rest assured that it'd be high...

I'm curious if Nissan can yet say how the heater works: * Is it a resistive heater or a heat pump? * If a heat pump, is it a reversible heat pump (i.e., the same unit powering the AC)? * If a heat pump, does it use motor and/or pack waste heat as the source heat well to reduce the energy...

Certainly Nissan will have some input into the standardization for Level 3 (rapid) charging. I'd be interested in seeing the standard involve the *charger* providing coolant for the battery pack. That way, the vehicle doesn't need a massive cooling system for when you get to really high power...

I mourn the slow downfall of Aptera, and one day hope that *someone* will actually bring a hyper-efficient EV to market. If Nissan does so, they will have my eternal gratitude (and more of my money). Extremely low energy consumption per mile doesn't only mean a smaller environmental impact; it...
