Wait wait….I thought the new leafs had active cooling and heating? Now got to research this.
I loved the old leafs but lack of active heat and cooling killed the batteries in a few years.
They've always had a heating pad in them, unless it only came with some cold weather packages. The "active cooling" is just a fan that blows across the battery, and does basically nothing if you're charging and it's already warm outside.
I am dumbfounded. After the class action lawsuit from Arizona and the lizard battery chemistry from early Leafs why would Nissan not move to active cooling in a huge refresh.
You def saved my bacon, thanks for the info!
