As it turns out, even though Jeff now resides in Yokohama, he has a home very near me. In fact, it is easily within LEAF driving range. Jeff was around this weekend and invited me to have coffee with him this morning.Hawk0630 said:-- This is Jeff from Nissan --
We chatted for a couple of hours about the LEAF, batteries, solar energy, families and telecommuting around the globe, among other things. Jeff was very forthright about where things are and he seems genuinely committed to improving relations with existing LEAF owners as well as improving marketing, sales and communications efforts going forward. At the same time, he acknowledged that Nissan is a big multinational corporation which carries a lot of inertia, so don't expect miraculous changes to happen immediately.
It sounds to me as if we will learn a lot more as the rollout of the 2013 models progresses. In other words, I think LEAF owners and prospects in North America will learn new things from Nissan within the next two months. (I don't know any details, so please do not PM me for them!)
Anyway, thanks for stopping by our little town this morning, Jeff! I enjoyed meeting you and look forward to seeing you again soon in Yokohama.
