Not only the Japanese benefited from this early start. For example, in 2010 it was not yet known what the fast charging standard would be and Nissan opted for the Chademo, a phased-out socket. CCS won the battle for the fast charging standard.
Also from a marketing point of view, making the Leaf a hatchback was a great choice. Leaf is particularly good at cutting air with its specially designed smooth stem. Consumption is therefore relatively low, in contrast to the electric SUVs of other brands that followed. It’s a miracle technically, but half of the world bought SUVs in 2010 because they felt sturdier and safer inside. In 2022, the new standard in this segment in the Netherlands will be a car like the Hyundai Kona Electric. No wonder Leaf took Ariya as a sister this year. An all-electric SUV with CCS connectivity.
Sedans and electric sedans are therefore far from the minority. Tesla used the same logic as the Model S and Model 3. Volkswagen made the ID.3. But facing it are the rows of electric SUVs and crossovers from Audi, Mercedes, BMW, Hyundai, Kia, Ford, Peugeot, DS and soon Nissan.
