Re: Nissan Sakura + Mitsubishi eK-X EV Surpass 50,000 Sold

Here's a Fully Charged video about the Sakura I saw this too. It is rather unfortunate that he doesn't even mention the eK-X EV in the video. Also, it looks like the seats don't fold flat. https://i.imgur.com/57XHmnM.jpg I have to say I do prefer the i-MiEV in that regard. If they do bring the Saku...

Re: Battery Capacity Testing

Slow Charging the i-MiEV, CZero and iOn David, this is very intriguing! I do the majority of my charging at public charging stations, so should I hang around a bit longer even once the charging symbol goes out to let the BMS calculate the capacity? Like others in this thread, I see a 0.1 Ah decreas...

i-MiEV in Sweet Tooth

Was quite surprised to see an i-MiEV while watching the 2nd season of Sweet Tooth on Netflix!
You can see it in episode 5 around the 36 min mark.

Re: Nissan Sakura + Mitsubishi eK-X EV Surpass 50,000 Sold

I wonder if this Nissan/Mitsu still retains the fantastic turning radius of our i-MiEV? Apparently the turning radius comes in at 4.8m for both so fairly comparable to the 4.5m? of the i-MiEV. eK X EV Dimensions https://faq-mitsubishi--motors-co-jp.translate.goog/faq/show/4980?category_id=638&s...

Re: Coolant pump makes continuous noise

I noticed the same on my 2015 i-MiEV. When I took a test drive in another 2014 i-MiEV, turning the key to "READY" the coolant pump was constantly running in that one also, so perhaps it is an intentional change? To be fair the noise is only really noticeable when you are stopped - when you...

Nissan Sakura + Mitsubishi eK-X EV Surpass 50,000 Sold

It has been just over a year since Nissan and Mitsu started sales for their joint developed Sakura and eK-X EV, but combined they have surpassed 50,000 cars sold! 8-) Auto makers seem to be moving towards larger SUV type vehicles, but here's to hoping they make it overseas in the future! Having take...

Re: Charging Station Availability Anxiety

I do sometimes see other EVs blocking DC chargers after they have finished. If there's no-one in the car though I just move on to another charger as it's not worth the trouble usually. They should really add a surcharge. The worst I had happen to me is when I was using an AC charger at a shopping ma...

Re: Saying Farewell to my 2009 i-MiEV...

Congratulations, curious, is yours an M type or do all later JDM models have above modifications? I actually went with the 16 kWh version. I did take a look at the lithium titanate "M" version but later versions with the heat pump are especially rare, and I think the actual range is only ...

Saying Farewell to my 2009 i-MiEV...

In my other posts, I talked about my very early 2009 i-MiEV with its highly degraded battery (SoH below 50%). Unfortunately due to its reduced range and slow DC charging I had to say goodbye, but in its place I managed to find a worthy replacement with a much healthier battery - a 2015 i-MiEV! I did...

Re: Losing Charge When Parked Up

Winter has not been kind my battery, as my usable range has dropped considerably to only around 40-50 km :cry: This is of course with no heater use. I expect to see my range return in the spring, but with such a limited range and as someone who is mostly reliant on public charging, I may have to let...
