Thanks, Tony. I was hoping you would weigh in considering you know the car as well as anyone.

I am signed up for the first round of Chademo. I think I'm last or almost last on your list for install because I waited so long to buy the car last year. But I'm not planning to use it much right away so I can wait. As for Spain, it's hard to get info for public stations. They seem to be the California of Europe with DCFC based on what I have pieced together thanks to Google translate. The best site I've found so far is chargemap.com. Very similar to plugshare and they have a news section too. It is hard to tell which Chademos are operational and I don't know if the Nissan dealerships there would welcome a Toyota. Also, from the way I interpret some of the info the DCFC stations seems to have a lower power there (~22kW), similar to the 3.7kW Level 2 Shuko plugs. There appears to be a serious and consistent effort to improve infrastructure there from my research that I hope will continue.

Thanks all for replies/thoughts and I'll ask about the Euro Navi on my 10k service in September. -JD
