I guess they (the right hand drive ones) will be released in the UK first, so see how they go there. They will probably be quite popular in the UK, with the MG brand and the prices may be very good too.

Still evening at ground level tonight.

Looks like they are the batteries, 2p in the ZOE and 3p in the KONA. There must be a way of fitting them 2p in an older LEAF.

You won't need that anymore anyway. You will have regen braking now
What are the batteries from I3? Imiev ?

I don't see you should not be allowed to double park beside or behind them and use an extension lead. Maybe even leave your phone number just in case they want to move their car before you have finished charging (if you are available).

Hi Tom, I am embarrassed to say I have not checked them so they are whatever they were when delivered! On my to-do list. I have a range of charging options. That which I use the most is my OpenEVSE three phase 22kW charger in conjunction with the Zoe Type2 cable One amp increments 6-32A and three p...

Well looks like it is selling for $54,500- $55,500 (NSW on road). I guess that puts it between the Ionig EV and the Kona EV in both price and battery size. It appears that some sort of announcement has been made that the old LEAF (if bought new in Australia) can get the battery replaced for $9,500 p...

Is this where the range extender goes?

https://insideevs.com/bmw-2019-i3-i3s-42-2-kwh-battery/ That should be enough to do 220 km around town, and a comfortable 180 km on the highway. Wonder if they offer battery upgrades... How is this for an upgrade? https://youtu.be/A7uS5F5EiTo A7uS5F5EiTo [ Edited Coulomb: added [ tube] video-code [...

I see someone suggesting a RRP of $42,000 ..... my guess given Nissan's original pricing for the original Leaf would be well into the $60,000s and probably nearer $70,000 for the 60kw version. Of more interest to me is the NV2000 which reportedly got 40kw from earlier this year. Whether or not it w...

Mate... This ones going to end up better than those Jaguar kits. It will even have room for a big beer fridge in the front.

Nissan dealers are quoting owners in Australia about $34,000 AUD to replace worn out battery packs. Do they really think they are going to sell the new model here?

Are they heat pump or resistive cab heating?

Are they heat pump or resistive cab heating?

Yeah... they have a bit ground clearance and lighter handling.

Just make sure you camp on top of a hill. You should get plenty of regen going back down.

Looks good Chris. I hope you know which red wire is the positive and which red wire is the negative?

Does it have a spare tyre?

I saw this one in town with the for sale sign a couple of weeks ago.

"And yes, refrigerant to chill the water going through the battery pack is how you keep it close to 25'C on a 45'C day." And that is the problem. My battery would be flat before it is time to drive home. This could be the biggest nail in the coffin for electric cars, without a better solution. I do ...

They look like the same cells I am using.

And they are the same size.

How do you keep them below 45 'C , when the temperature is 45 "C. This is a problem for all batteries unless someone comes up with better chemistry. I need something reliable from -10 'C to + 50 'C ( but this could change with climate change). I know , I am dreaming, but this is reality.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-ka4-mG_0I In this video the guy explains how retaining the vehicle's original BMS was the easiest way to keep the vehicle's onboard computer happy. So I might try and re-pack a Leaf battery with a new BMS and wiring, but have it so you can swap the BMS at the last ...
