Personally I like the three fingers sideways salute, like the letter E for electric, or a 3 for three prong plug. Of course I've never seen another EV on the road so I just do it in the mirror :biggrin:

It might just look like a fist inside moving vehicles at a quick glance, or an aborted middle finger gesture. It also doesn't have the gang sign cool factor.
Of course I'd hate to be shot by a gangbanger thinking I'm in a rival gang. Maybe I'll just wave.

Anyone know what's going on with the MyNissanLeaf forums? They are down with an "account suspended" message and it seems to have happened before.

Usually happens when there is a sudden surge in traffic ... the admin was going to move to a new host soon.
Well, you're not a real EV until you run out of charge at Top Gear!

If Nissan feel hard done-by they should simply publish the telemetry for the TG event.
Would be useful to see if they were speeding :biggrin:
But would only need to show a map of the route taken, the car's SOC and the location of all the suitable charge points they could have used, but decided in the interests of education/infotainment/pissing-about to ignore.

I love that idea! I wonder if it'd bring the whole privacy thing down around their heads though. Wherever there's a silver lining there's usually a cloud.

Nissan has already figured out using CarWings. TG drained the battery before starting on the journey and circled around so that they would end up in a pre-determined place out of juice. It was all a setup just like with Tesla. Even if Tg is all about comedy (obviously its not), it is getting old and tired. All they can think of with EVs is that eventually you run out of fuel and they are not perpetual motion machines.

S is too big. It is not a surprise that for long Camry/Accord/Altima have been the largest selling sedans - I wouldn't want anything larger.
