You'll be the first one on here with one then! No one else has ordered.

Can I ask which dealer did you go with and what colour did you order? My closest dealer is quoting end of Dec if I place an order now. Carwow dealers are also quoting end of Nov-Dec time too.

Glyn Hopkin. Burgundy. I am told that my order managed to squeeze in as is part of the demos production. Build date is Sept 9th. Delivery Sept 23. Had I not ordered then it would have been much later. I have also been told that production has been delayed due to a shortage of steering rack parts that normally come out of Ukraine.

I haven’t had chance to watch this yet, so hope it isn’t rude, etc.

That video was already reported here.
There is truth in what he claims, probably even most of it is accurate.
But IMHO the Nissan e-power concept is to deliver a smooth EV ride without plugin related issues.
Of course there will inevitably be quite some drawbacks to this complex implementation,
but maybe, and I hope so, the advantages will be far more important.
OK, we won't get +80 MPG, we wont get 0-60 in 3 seconds, but that was always to be expected.
Miracles sometimes take a bit longer AFAIK !

Have we seen this?
You certainly don't hear the engine kicking in.

Thanks gloucester.
My guess... Future Nissan European models will all be either e-power or EV.
It's still a gamble, but I personally think it's a wise decision!
