Hi there,
I searched the forum but couldn't found exactly what I was looking for so hoping someone can quickly give me their advice.
Looking at leasing a 2018 Leaf SV. I was talking to a mechanic and he tried to tell me I should think twice as the range that the manufacturers say you get on a battery charge is much less than advertised. He especially warned against the range in the winter as it will likely not get more than 100km on a charge.
Can anyone clarify their experiences with the battery in cold (and hot) temps?
I live in Southern Ontario so we tend to hit both ends of the temperature spectrum throughout the year.
Any guidance would be great as I am meeting with the dealer tonight!
Thanks very much
