MiEV Remote System that allows the owner to set the time for battery charging to start and finish and to pre-activate the climate control system before entering the car. The G model goes on sale in the middle of August, carrying a price tag ranging from ¥2,600,000 to ¥3,800,000

When the vehicle's ECU determines that a Level 1 or Level 2 charging connector is plugged into the Mitsubishi i, it then determines whether or not battery heating is necessary based on battery temperature information from the battery management unit (BMU). If the system deems battery heating necessary, it then starts the compressor heater control unit which controls the heater, the A/C control unit and the HVAC system while concurrently telling the BMU to turn on the battery ventilation fan.

Question is as the basic equipment is already installed are these changes just in the miev OS? Has anybody had their software updated during service? also regen improvements mentioned.
