Now you can.
CARWINGS®. This is the new way of doing things.
CARWINGS® is an innovative new system that lets Nissan LEAF® owners communicate remotely with their car. Drivers can check the charging status of the battery, get reminders, set timers, start charging, turn on the air conditioning, find local charging stations and much more. And the best part is you don’t have to be in (or even near) the vehicle to do it – it all works through your web-based mobile phone or computer. CARWINGS® is a complimentary service for Nissan LEAF® owners for three years.
Remotely check charge status and reminders
It’s something you’ll want to keep on top of. Check your estimated range and battery charge status from your phone or computer, and if you forgot to plug it in, or the vehicle becomes unplugged, CARWINGS® will remind you with an automatic text message.
Automatic charge status notifications on your phone
Electricity supplies the Nissan LEAF® with power, while CARWINGS® supplies the owner with confidence. The system automatically notifies you when your charge has been interrupted for any reason, including blackouts. It’ll also notify you the moment your charge is complete. With CARWINGS®, you always know that your Nissan LEAF® is up for your next journey.
Control the climate systems remotely
Here’s the scenario: it’s a sweltering August day and you know you’ll be getting in the car in 15 minutes. Use your smartphone or computer to remotely turn on the air conditioning and voila, you’ll be entering a nice cool car. The system also works to remotely turn on the heater.
A second benefit of this feature is that it saves valuable battery power. By remotely starting the climate systems, you can cool or heat your Nissan LEAF® while it is still plugged in, meaning you don’t need to use the extra battery power when travelling.
It isn’t something we decided to do yesterday, or last week. It isn’t a new initiative, or a flashy new marketing idea. Innovation...is what Nissan is.
*CARWINGS™ communicates through a cellular network and may not be available in all areas; it requires a compatible GSM/GPRS cellular network. Signal strength may vary and be limited for the Nissan LEAF® and your location. Certain remote functions require a compatible smartphone, not included with vehicle. CARWINGS™ information system features are included through a subscription service, which requires owner consent to activate and is included in the price of the vehicle for the first 36 months. After that time, a subscription service can be purchased. CARWINGS™ communications may be received at a verified e-mail address or by SMS/text messaging-enabled mobile phone. Standard text rates and/or data usage may apply depending on your carrier.
