Does anyone know when the big net battery buffer will be unlocked (now it is 79.9 instead of 87 kWh ...), when they will mount the V2L and frunk?

@HOWARDKNOPFLER welcome to the thread! Is this a wish list, or something you're expecting?

1. I haven't head anything about changes to the battery buffer from Nissan (though I know other manufacturers have done this once they have enough data from early owners)
2. This would be nice, but probably requires some hardware changes - not just a software update (thought I could be wrong here), again I haven't heard anything from Nissan on this
3. I can't imagine a frunk is coming, just based on the way the mechanicals are arranged under the hood.

The Ariya I test drove had no frunk. It was filled with mechanics like a normal engine would fill it.

Thanks.
So it remains to wait for the release of more kWh, because now a lot of it is blocked (buffer?).
Second thing, does anyone know when the software will be improved and CCS will allow loading more than 115/116 kW in a peak?
It should be 130 - according to official information from Nissan. And here only 115 and that's a short time (at the beginning of charging).
On the plus side, there is the charging curve and long charging (up to 82% even) equal to or even above 90 kW (even 105/110 for some minutes).

The HVAC system (heat pump) was moved to the engine compartment. This if from the "Nissan Technical Review" number 88 from 2022. The blue item is the electric motor.
