Nissan said it is ramping up domestic production of the LEAF electric car at
its Smyrna, TN assembly

Good that they will have a lower priced model. I'm sorry to hear it will
not include the heat pump system.
It seems they would sell the most vehicles if they striped out all the
non-performance related things but keep things like the heat pump. At least
the base model will have the 6.6kw charg
Simple - the heat pump is expensive (essentially a more complicated
AirCo,
which can cool as well as heat the interior) so keeping the standard
resistive heater is cheaper.
Many non-performance related stuff costs nothing (software functions) so
that is truly a marketing choice whether to keep or s
In normal cases, I'd agree with you. But I still see EV buyers as more
performance oriented, thus making their decision not so much on purchase
price + features but rather on price plus range, putting features second.
Maybe the heat pump doesn't add that much range. Better regen certainly

I completely agree with you. Except for cruise control, which actually does
improve my range on longer stretches, cutting out the fluff is imperative!
Especially that idiotic center console which still eludes me half the time.

Here is Saft's for the STM5 NiCd modules. They tested them to 3000 cycles
with just over 80% of capacity remaining.

I trust that if this is in error, someone will correct me. AFAIK, neither
PMC nor Curtis has ever made an SCR controller. The early (1970s-1980s) PMC-
