Well the data shows just how much active cooling helps to lengthen their live. Gen 1 Leaf packs didn't have active cooling and their life goes downhill quickly.

- thephilsproject 8y agoNo Leaf has active cooling, including the latest 40kWh Gen4.
- ItsMe000001 8y agoI'm not trying to nitpick, I really cannot tell and don't have context or pre-existing knowledge to resolve it for myself and I'm not a native speaker either: Do you mean "No Leaf has active cooling", or do you mean "No, Leaf has active cooling" (with a comma)? Because I suspect the comma version, because I think the no-comma version would probably have been formulated slightly differently?
- PuffinBlue 8y agoThe reply you're responding to was a rebuff of the original parent to the thread - so it should be read without a comma i.e. it is correctly written. You could write it as: "Not a single Leaf has active cooling" or "None of the Nissan Leaf's have active cooling". The above two alternative sentences aren't as elegant or concise as the original, hence why it was likely chosen.
- r00fus 8y agoThat's surprising to me as a Ford Focus EV owner. I know that even if the supposedly inferior FFE has an actively cooled battery pack even before the 2017 refresh. Why would Nissan fail at something so basic? Smacks of "compliance car"
- thebruce87m 8y agoI read a forum post of someone commenting on range loss while the car was parked, and others confirmed this. I thought the battery conditioning was only while the car was in use, but it seems like the battery is constantly temperature regulated even when parked. It is common in the UK to drive to the airport and leave your car parked while you go on holiday for a few weeks, but it seems that you might come back to a car that won’t get you home.
