On a sidenote...
Bought a seven year old Nissan Leaf 40kw just before Xmas

Now Nissan tells me they don't care enough about their existing customers to let the mobile app continue to work for these cars, so we will no longer be able to pre heat the car before driving

So much for trusting a company...
Guess I will never buy a Nissan again

@baardhaveland @obucate @pluralistic To be fair, as an original owner of a 2017 Leaf, this is because the hardware in the car is a 3G cellular modem. Which no longer can connect as the Telcos have turned off the antennas. And are no longer listening…

RE
#Nissan #LEAF and canceled customer mobile app...

Wow, I have a 2019 LEAF and in winter time, just get in an turn on the steering wheel heater and the main air heater. I didn't know there was an app for that

In #Osaka it's not very cold, only like 35°F (or 2-10°C) in winter for a _few_ months

The LEAF with e-Pedel on, is a GREAT fullsize #EV

How do you like using the e-Pedel? I use it all the time, except when parking

@cvwarren @baardhaveland @obucate @pluralistic It was totally predictable in 2017 that 3G wasn't going to last long. 1G had been gone for a long time, 2G was in the process of being shut down, and frequencies were already being auctioned for 5G. It was already an issue that those cars didn't ship with 4G, and a bigger issue that they couldn't be upgraded. Having only hard-wired 3G in 2017 is gross short-sightedness on Nissan's side, that wouldn't even outlast the battery warranty.
