Well, it doesn't have to be called a kwh meter.  I could be called a
energy-remaining or, to use the term incorrectly, a power-remaining meter.

But most of the people in the focus group would probably have said, "A 
killerwhat? That sounds dangerous!"

I suspect that only 1% of average drivers could tell you what a 
kilowatthour is. The Leaf focus group probably had people 10 times more 
likely to be interested in EVs, so they were better; 10% of them knew 
what a Kilowatthour is. So they still got out-voted.
