Nissan Ariya

I'd recommend people skip to 22 mins on that video before deciding if they want to watch the whole thing. He likes what he sees from press information, but hasn't tested it. It was an insightful video but it's important people understand what they're watching here.
Nissan still has the full $7500 Federal tax credit per Federal Tax Credits for Electric and Plug-in Hybrid Cars
I'm not sure of the current count after NOVEMBER UPDATE - 4 Automakers Closest To Losing Federal Tax Credit of 126K units from Dec 2018.
They still need to hit 200K and then go through the various parts of phaseout.
From FINAL UPDATE: Quarterly Plug-In EV Sales Scorecard, you can add another 12,365 for 2019 then 3007 (Nissan Group reports second-quarter 2020 U.S. sales) for Jan to June 2020. I'm guessing you'll want to add 1,667 for Dec 2018 from Nissan Group reports December 2018 and 2018 calendar year U.S. sales.
As I posted at Nissan Ariya to be announced for the JDM July 15, 2020 - Page 10 - My Nissan Leaf Forum, that comes out to 143,914 but could be too low by a few thousand.

Source that's either is based on whatever you say?
Nissan has officially said that Leaf is its own dedicated platform. Ditto for Ariya.
LEAF is 30mm taller because it lifted 30mm to help provide clearance for battery
Length difference is cosmetic, plastic bumper etc
Track front is identical
track rear is 5 mm difference, presumably just a smidgen for brake options
wheelbase is identical
width is 10mm difference (mirrors)
in photo they may look difference, but in person they were very very similar, C12 never went to USA, but they did get the sedan version called the Sentra

They have essentially 50k left, and a year before the Ariya hits the market. I don't really see Nissan selling 100k in the US before the tax credit phases out...so they are going to have to drop the price before they've made significant sales.
I assume your disagree on my comment was based on my implied availability of the credit...rather than the practicality of the availability of the credit.
Nissan Ariya EV: US arrival will be delayed to early 2022
The Ariya will offer up to 300 miles of range in some versions, with a choice between front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.
While searching for something else, I found
. Interesting that it's being built at Tochigi. '11 and '12 Leafs for the US market were built in Oppama. JDM and some other non-US markets got Leafs from Oppama for '13+.
I finished watching and wow, this is the most automated assembly I've seen so far. I've seen other companies use robots to install the whole dash but that seems to be rare. I wonder how much of the interior bits being installed by humans was skipped (e.g. seals and trim piece).

There will be a shindig introducing the Nissan Ariya on November 16. Supposedly, there will be designers and engineers as well as the chief Marketing Officer. It should be interesting to see what Nissan has to say.
I saw one in person yesterday, in black from 6ft apart. Nissan folks did not allow sitting in it. In black it looks great. Smaller than our Y. Too bad couldn't open doors or judge the interior. Liked the front camera set-up. It looks like they're going with multi-camera with Mobileye.

Its not a horrible car, just over priced. I can't take Front Wheel Drive seriously in an EV. Considering its been over 10 years since the LEAF, this is pretty dissapointing. I don't mind the looks however:
- 130kW Charging isn't great unless the charging curve is very flat.
- The floating centre console isn't for me, milk cartons under my feet.
- The volume button is a plus! But the haptic temp buttons might as well be on a screen.
- No frunk... WTF.
- Trunk storage, nothing deep down like a Y.
- No seven seat option like an X-Trail or Rouge.
- 2 spoke steering wheels are ugly.
The interior quality looks very good.
