Nissan arrête la production de la Nissan Leaf dans son usine anglaise de Sunderland. À la différence de la Renault Zoé, la Nissan Leaf aura droit à un renouveau en 2025, s'il n'y a pas de retard, mais bien loin de la forme sous laquelle on la connait.

Connected cars are a “privacy nightmare,” Mozilla Foundation says

Today, the Mozilla Foundation published its analysis of how well automakers handle the privacy of data collected by their connected cars, and the results will be unlikely to surprise any regular reader of Ars Technica. The researchers were horrified by their findings , stating that "cars are the worst product category we have ever reviewed for privacy."

Mozilla looked at 25 car brands and found that all of them collected too much personal data, and from multiple sources—monitoring not just which buttons you push or what you do in any of the infotainment system's apps but also data from other sources like satellite radio or third-party maps. Or even when you connect your phone—remember that prompt asking you if you wanted to share all your contacts and notes with your car when you connected it via Bluetooth?

While some gathered data seems innocuous or even helpful—feedback to improve cabin ergonomics and UIs, for example—some data is decidedly not.

Nissan has agreed to invest $663 million (600 million euros) in Ampere, Renault's electric vehicle operation, the two companies announced today. It's a sign of a renewed alliance between the two automakers that have been in a partnership since 1999, but relations have strained following the 2019 arrest of Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn .

"With the finalization of the definitive agreements, we have entered the next phase of collaboration with Renault and Mitsubishi Motors in mutually beneficial areas of innovations," said Nissan CEO Makoto Uchida. "This will create additional value through initiatives aligned to Nissan's Ambition 2030 and electrification strategy. The investment opportunity in Ampere complements and strengthens Nissan’s ongoing electric push in Europe and will deliver numerous synergies, including cost efficiencies, regulatory compliance, and a broader range of EV products and powertrains."

Both Nissan and Renault have been early entrants into the EV market, with more than a million Nissan EVs sold since 2010 and about 300,000 Renault Zoes delivered since that car went on sale in 2012.

Nissan is the next automaker to adopt Tesla-style EV charging plugs

When the North American Charging Standard was announced by Tesla in November 2022, the name was pretty ambitious, considering that it was not controlled by a standards body or available on any electric vehicle other than those wearing Tesla's stylized T. But a lot has happened since then, as one automaker after another has signed on, negotiating access to Tesla's robust charging network as part of the deal. Today, Nissan revealed it's the latest convert.

"Adopting the NACS standard underlines Nissan's commitment to making electric mobility even more accessible as we follow our Ambition 2030 long-term vision of greater electrification," said Jérémie Papin, chairperson of Nissan Americas. "We are happy to provide access to thousands more fast chargers for Nissan EV drivers, adding confidence and convenience when planning long-distance journeys."

Ford started the flood in May, followed since then by General Motors , Rivian , Volvo , Mercedes-Benz, and Polestar. Charger manufacturing companies are building NACS plugs into their hardware, and networks like ChargePoint, EVgo, and Electrify America are adding NACS, too.
