Nissan have been too slow to get the Leaf to 200+ mile range. They've done it, after talking about it for years, but its expensive.



Renault and Nissan are part of the same group. Pretty sure they share parts.


Unfortunately, not. The Zoe and Leaf platforms are different. Which is stupid.

The Zoe drivetrain was codesigned by Renault and Continental and Continental makes it.

There's a great teardown video of a Zoe's power electronics on YouTube.


But still.
