@fry I love CarPlay, but my Leaf can also control climate without leaving CarPlay with the use of actual physical buttons.

Best of both worlds.

That's awesome! I think there's a newer generation of CarPlay from Apple that lets the auto-makers use the Apple UI for everything, including the spedometers, climate and other gauges. If that data can be integrated into third party apps, I think developers would come up with some really cool things.

I really wish my Hyundai would let me do that, maybe I should look into Nissan for my next car haha. How have you been finding the Leaf? I've only heard good things about it from others.

@fry I love it. The use of ChaDeMo over CCS2 is a bit of a pain, but I can live with it.

[–] fry@fry.gs 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It has an adapter to plug into the CCS2 standard-compliant connector, right? Otherwise you'd be left out of the vast majority of the charging network.

@fry no. That’s technically extremely difficult to do.
