With very little effort, Nissan can put the Frankenplug right next to the Chademo port, where the current J1772 plug is located. Now the car would accept J1772, SAE DC, and ChadeMo.
The effort would not be to foster expansion of Nissan's "competitor" charging standard, but instead to make their attack on Nissan mute. In case you haven't heard, GM is lobbying California to stop deployment of your ChadeMo charging infrastructure in favor of their own "standard". Again, not just a competing standard; they want to stop ChadeMo in the USA.
I guarantee that GM will not offer the same option to have both ports. Advantage Nissan, who can claim all standards accepted, unlike Government owned Motors.
