This is a story that has been building in the U.S. for months now.

Some American Nissan Leaf owners in hot climate parts of the U.S. are seeing significant battery degradation after less than a year of use of their brand new Nissan Leafs. This issue is only happening in hot climate parts of the U.S. It appears that the heat is the main cause of the degradation and heat is affecting the Leaf's battery life because Nissan has under engineered the Leaf's battery with passive cooling rather than the more sophisticated active cooling systems used in Teslas and the Chevrolet Volt.

Two years ago, Tesla's outspoken CEO said the Nissan Leaf's battery was "primitive" and predicted issues in extreme climates.
