EV Charging times increased significantly when the weather got cold

Posted on by Haptic

New research from Idaho National Laboratory suggests that electric vehicle drivers could face longer charging times when temperatures drop. The reason: cold temperatures impact the electrochemical reactions within the cell, and onboard battery management systems limit the charging rate to avoid damage to the battery. The new study, which looked at data from a fleet Read more about EV Charging times increased significantly when the weather got cold[…]

e-Pedal technology transforms the way people drive

Posted on by Haptic

The new LEAF’s revolutionary e-Pedal technology transforms the way people drive. It lets drivers start, accelerate, decelerate and stop by increasing or decreasing the pressure applied to the accelerator. When the accelerator is fully released, regenerative and friction brakes are applied automatically, bringing the car to a complete stop. The car holds its position, even Read more about e-Pedal technology transforms the way people drive[…]
