I can't see the point of driver's internal mirror being a rear view camera screen.

Gel, this was developed by Nissan some time ago and looks like it is being implemented with the “ProPilot” vehicles now being implemented. Attached is an old post plus some Nissan Blurb for your interest. IMHO I cannot see a problem but it might take some getting used to and it might be liked or not by other owners - Dave :D

The all-new 2018 Nissan LEAF has been named ‘Best Electric Car’ at the 2018 What Car? Awards - Dave ;)

“The electric car market has never been more competitive, yet the LEAF saw off all its rivals because it makes the most sense to most buyers. It combines excellent performance with generous standard equipment and low running costs. And even in winter weather, its real-world range is good.”
