Bean counters are to blame for this? If its easy enough to lift the hood and clamp a set of jumpers cables, crank and be home in 15 then why install a plug in unit? Clamping a set of jumper cables to the positive side is a bear on my truck. No room and the bolts head is only 9mm. Too small to get a good bite with jumper cables. Now, Porsche take this to a new lever of complexity on their newer cars. I think there's a charging port down near the driver left panel to charge the electronic hood release. I discovered that the painful way.
