On tour in France right now with it. Performing beautifully as usual. A little cool, with wind and showers today but was still getting 3.5 m/kWh at 100 kph average. (62 mph) Above that and it's no "wind knife". Charged at a Tesla 150 kWh charge point and got up to 128kW charge rate, 41 kWh into the battery in 20 minutes.
2 months in and I'm still impressed by the drive experience, especially in comparison to other EVs I've driven.
Very much looking forward to the Nismo version coming to the UK as this maybe the replacement model when I need to change in a couple of years.

I'm almost 1/2 way in my 3 year deal and so far haven't seen an all round EV better,so the Nismo may just be worth looking at. I've criticised the "slow" charging, but the curve and the almost complete lack of needing anything faster, due to only DC charging when I'm having a meal, is actually not a problem at all. Preconceptions can take a tumble when experience is applied. Might be why 90 + % will never go back to ICE. 

Glad to hear that, I'm still enjoying the joyfulness and peaceful experience that my Ariya brings to me everyday, I thought initially that after a few weeks or months the "wow" factor will dissappear but no, I'm still wanting to use it everyday, literally makes my life better because I don't want to leave the car when going to and leaving work.
Also I have watched some japanese reviews of the Nismo one, seems promising and still good for everyday use according to journalists.
