I did pay. However, the 30% discount promised by the email did not happen - not sure if it was applicable, language was vague. The app has been working reliably for me, with the exception of the mileage logging that I don't use anyway; I do use the climate feature semi-regularly and the Finder...

My 2023 SEL bought in December 2022 in USA has the same status and description, but also shows an update number 07.21.57. I do not remember having any updates done at the couple of times I brought it in for oil changes.

Keep in mind my 2023 (and a few other people's) always kicks the ICE every 5 minutes if the air flow is set to Defrost (windshield) only, even in "EV preferred" mode, whatever the temperature.

There are a couple of threads about this, with pictures.

On my 2023, setting the air flow control to defrost only fires the ICE every few minutes even in EV in Drive. Any other setting allows persistent EV-only driving.

Per my calculations and in my area (WA, one of the best states for electric over gas), charging at more than $0.30/kWh is more expensive than gas. The only public chargers that are below that are Shell's at off-peak hours.

Sorry, cannot leave this uncorrected... the equation applies always. It is just that the loss of mass for chemical reactions is negligible. (edit: and, yes, it was a joke)

1) Question is unclear, but approximately, yes. 2) Yes, the car has to be on (in "Ready" mode) for the large battery to be connected. 3) Yes, see above. 4) You don't. Plenty of use; I ran the espresso machine for the group camp. The wrinkle is that the 110V power shuts down in 30 minutes if a...

I would have suggested playing with your phone wifi settings, but it is actually the bluetooth connection that controls the wifi connection. Some bluetooth devices allow setting the BT range, yours may too. Or try varying size aluminum foil sticker on the AA device to reduce the signal to the...

Nothing odd will happen; personally tested (camping, using the 120V power). (Edit: deleted incorrect statement that the car shuts down in 30 minutes; it is only the 120V power that gets shut down, not the car)

Another culprit is the Air Flow Control - setting it to defroster flow-only keeps my (and others') ICEs kicking in at start and every 5 minutes.

Yes, but it is expensive. The retrofit is referenced in this thread: Is the CCS to CHADEMO adapter legitimate? The discussed adapter is available, but also expensive. CHAdeMO CCS2 Adapter for Nissan Leaf (Pre-Order) | EVniculus

I would expect so (battery to heat faster with the heat pump off) but I don't know, based on available information; it may be designed not to take heat from the battery at cold temperatures, and just take from ambient (and engine, of course). In that case, the -15C limit would matter and turning...

My recollection from when I tested it is that the engine output dial showed a notch and a half, corresponding roughly to 5 kW charging power. Based on this, I would expect 2 to 3 hours from empty to 80% (of the available 16 kWh). However, I do not remember how full the battery was (though...

94 minutes according to this Mr. Mitsubishi video

The car has to be in Ready in order to have the 1.5kW power available (has to be connected to the traction battery.) This means the ICE will start automatically when battery is depleted, as in regular driving mode (manual pg. 4-84, followed by four warnings about parking brake, ventilation, CO...

A possible workaround is to get one of the new Android Auto wireless adapters with full/standalone Android mode. Then you don't have to rely on Android Auto, and would also have the wireless connection. They are few (just two last time I looked) and expensive, though.

I do not accept the claim of 7.2 as typical in that article as valid, even if we consider the luxurious vehicles (which I do not). I see mostly 3.3 here: https://chargehub.com/en/find-the-right-charging-station-power.html But some are more powerful than I expected (e.g. the Pacifica)

DC fast charging is substantially more expensive than using gas, so it does not make sense in more than one way. Even level 2 charging is more expensive in many cases. So, yes, it is intended for home charging. In fact, for a long time the official statistic was that people don't plug/charge...

This option is available on BEVs (e.g. my Leaf, a cousin of the Outlander), where it is critical to get a full charge before sharing the EVSE. It is not that critical for a PHEV, so you can leave it unlocked and rely on people's good will (which, admittedly, is not very good towards PHEVs taking...
