Does anyone have insights on whether Nissan has implemented a Tesla/Hyundai style camping mode or utility mode to the Ariya, which would allow keeping AC on for full night by using only the high voltage battery (not 12V battery)? Haven't found this info anywhere yet. I hope Ariya has it, but I suspect it might not..

Hey @Arija welcome to the forum! I haven't seen or heard anything from Nissan about a camping mode. Thought that's a really good idea. Is that a deal breaker for you? Do you do a lot of camping?

Thanks They indeed have been silent about it. Not any must-have feature of course, but I think it's a solid addition to electric car functionality, which Hyunday and Tesla have got right, but e.g. VW hasn't at least yet. Maybe Nissan will surprise positively.

For Ariya I think it would be perfect fit; the interior is more "lounge" like than most other electric cars, so why not to extend this interior usability with an additional use case of sleeping in the car? Ariya is also class-leading in total interior size seats folded down, which also supports the camp mode / utility mode.

I have not read anything that mentions this. It's a nice to have feature, along with VTL.
