I realize what you are saying
I realize what you are saying now ('come standard equipped' vs 'chosen technological standard'). Still, Nissan has chosen to support CHADEMO -- it's a japanese-born standard, after all, why wouldn't Nissan support it? They sure as heck won't switched to whatever standard SAE proposes, unless forced by the market... So, I guess I'm still confused by your statement. Electric cars are evolving quickly. I've heard talks that the 2014 Leaf will have inductive, wireless charging. I think it's assumed that the rapid progress will leave some Leaf models without newer features -- mine included. I won't be griping when newer models start getting nice things like battery capacity upgrades and faster charging methods, progress is good!
