Wow. After reading the whole translated letter, he had several! What an assir

And an array of microphones. But it’s not like they have a clear view of their surroundings. Wait

Heat pump and dual direction charging are awesome though. I don’t imagine they’re using these kei cars between the cities when they can get high speed trains.

Nissan could easily take 5k off but has been hesitant/gradual with EV adoption just like the rest of the Japanese producers.
