average 15kW and about 50km of range added in 25min. if it started on a full battery, drove 100km and than charged at that rate, it would have finished a 500km trip in right about 11h.
Definitely a flaw on the Leaf. Not sure why they chose a passively cooled pack when nearly everyone else was using some kind of active cooling. They continue to use the passively cooled battery even in the 2023 Leaf.
There is a lever between the driver seat and the door. If there isn’t one, then your car does not have fast charging. (All imievs have the door on the side of the car even if they don’t have the port)

Thank you for this video I just bought one of these cars and I'm learning everything I can
Glad to have been able to provide you with some info. How has your ownership been so far?

Definitely a slow charger compared to modern EVs. Was high speed when the iMiEV originally launched.
@@Everythingevs its like tier 1 only back then, unless ya make 220v 40kw charge box
It's a shame the Nissan Leaf don't use Ac to cool it's battery pack,big miss opportunity if you ask me,and yeah I own a Leaf,gonna sell soon perhaps.

The question is, how do you open the freaking fast charge trap...

That sucks that the Least doesn't use AC to cool the battery when fast charging. I wonder if there is a way to trick the system to do it

why does it stop at 80% and not fully charge
That is the way Mitsubishi designed it. Not sure on the reasoning. You can start a new session and it will go up to about 90%.
