After one weekend with much help from dad I finally fitted the entire Leaf battery pack into the space where the fuel tank used to live. That means: interior space remains uncompromised!

I only ever tested Tourans top speed 3 years back with the first FOC firmware. Now with all the high rev refinements I wanted to know if it improved.

Actually the Touran ran fine on its 40 kWh Nissan battery but the sheer existence of a battery pack that would fit in that elegantly made me take on that project.
Secondly Europe's chargins network is growing but mainly with CCS connectors. So with CHAdeMO I couldn't really benefit from the growth and decided to swap it for CCS

For one year I drove E-Touran with a 24 kWh battery pack over a distance of 15000 km. A pack that small meant I had to stop and recharge every 80 km. Upgrading to 40 kWh will double that AND give me better charging speed.

Today we actually pull some power from a CCS charger and send it to the cars battery via CHAdeMO.

After my failed attempts to use a Prius inverter in my Touran (for charging, DC/DC and 230V AC generation) I am now trying my hands at modifying a Chinese-made 12V to 230V sine inverter to run from 360V DC directly.
