      Have you owned one?

      They are unreliable and even Nissan itself cannot fix them

        They are very popular for carshare companies. I have rented a NV200 from a carshare for picking up a TV before and it was a nice experience and very inexpensive.

          Maybe in Europe?, the electric version never made it to North America

          Only the Leaf made it and they cannot even fix them. My friends are on their third vattery pack in 4 years of ownership; last replacement took 8 months

    Honestly thank God.

    I was really worried about how this was only going to drag down Honda.

    I used to love Nissan. They made several of my dream cars.

    Unfortunately it’s been quite some time since they made anything very good imo.

    Currently have a reputation of meh reliability and meh driving experience.

    They don’t offer anything to entice someone away from Toyota or Honda.

    I hope Nissan can come back but idk how they do that without a serious overhaul of their whole business from the ground up.

        Let Nissan do the styling? No, no, no. They already vomited out the Juke and Cube, we don’t need more vehicular abominations out there on the roads…

        You don’t need to merge with Nissan to do that if you’re Honda. Just buy out their design team. Much cheaper lol.

        Edit: spelling

      Why they want to sell them to Tesla? Ignoring that Nissan has nothing to offer to them (chademo? LOL), all Elmo is going to do is fire everyone and run the company to the ground. Any toddler can do that.

        Nissan has manufacturing plants in Tennessee and Mississippi that Tesla may want to get ahold of. In exchange Nissan gets enough cash to survive a while longer until they decide how to waste it.

        (DAE remember the Leaf? Shit was dope. What the hell happened?)

          Not much point in assembly plants for ICE cars. Why pay for what’s essentially a warehouse.
