Comment on As some carmakers run from Apple CarPlay, Porsche embraces it

That’s awesome! I think there’s a newer generation of CarPlay from Apple that lets the auto-makers use the Apple UI for everything, including the spedometers, climate and other gauges. If that data can be integrated into third party apps, I think developers would come up with some really cool things.

I really wish my Hyundai would let me do that, maybe I should look into Nissan for my next car haha. How have you been finding the Leaf? I’ve only heard good things about it from others.

@fry I love it. The use of ChaDeMo over CCS2 is a bit of a pain, but I can live with it.

  It has an adapter to plug into the CCS2 standard-compliant connector, right? Otherwise you’d be left out of the vast majority of the charging network.

    @fry no. That’s technically extremely difficult to do.

I would not recommend a leaf. I had a ton of fun with that car, and it was a great intro to EV car. But it’s short range and the fact that it’s a discontinued model are a turn off for me though. If you like Nissan the Ariya is a good choice I hear though

  @Uprise42 @fry At 400km, you and I have different definitions of short range.

    Maybe it’s your country’s version, but my 2018 leaf had 150 miles brand new which equates to 241 km. My Niro EV gets close to 250 miles which is closer to 400 km

    @Uprise42 @fry It sounds like you got the one with the smaller battery.
