Hi,

38810km
Ahr: 64,76

I mean this cannot be battery from 2013 with 38000km? Its replaced battery? Possible?

Thanks for any info.
 
Car was imported from Holand with 34000km, here in Czech 4000km. I mean battery change in Holland. Czech seller dont know :(
 
That is either a new battery, or it has been reset and you will not be able to tell from LeafSpy anything about the battery condition.
Go for a long test drive; then you will know.

Its possible reset data for LeafSpy? i mean it can only reset battery bar on display..
 
My guess is that's a new battery pack...probably in the last year.
Go back to Nissan with the VIN and see if they can confirm.

If you're asking about whether Leaf Spy can tell the difference between inflated SOH values due to an illegitimate reset (reset w/o replacing pack w/a new one) vs. a new battery (and thus a legitimate reset), it apparently cannot.

Just to confuse matters more, it is just possible, if the car never saw hot weather at all, that that is the original battery and accurate readings...

It is impossible for a 2013 car to report those numbers, even if is was in cold storage. In addition, 2200 charges later will NEVER have a 99% health battery....

My early 2014 has reported similar numbers. I don't claim that this report was accurate, rather I am fairly sure that it was not accurate. Numbers like this show the impact of DCQC sessions and driving patterns (and more) on the estimate of the car's battery management system. Leafspy is just reading this estimate.

Its possible its OEM. Good climate would do that. My 2013 had similar numbers. The numbers bounced around a LOT but I was roughly 17-18,000 ,miles when my stats dropped to a similar point including one point where I was at 65.39 100.66 31362.7 (ahr, Hx, mileage) after a QC experiment just to see how much I could inflate numbers ;)
