I get the feeling they put lots of money into R&D initially and created the Leaf, then just....stopped innovating on it. The Leaf looks very similar in tech from its release date in 2010.

  • no liquid cooled battery
  • small onboard AC charger (6.6kw)
  • limited to 50kw DC fast Charging via Chademo

This is what they've done with most of their vehicles. The Frontier was unchanged for 16 years. They're essentially the Chrysler/Dodge of Japanese manufacturers.
