I'm used to my LEAF (2012, first delivery in Fairfax County, Virginia in November of 2011) taking circa seven hours to charge up fully. Today, I ran it all the way down to below two miles remaining range ("-----"). Then I plugged it in, expecting to get a text when it had charged in around 6-7 hours, up to 100%.
However, charging stopped at _four_ hours, and the car seems to be 80% charged, and I have no idea why it's now charging so fast.
Over 22,500 miles (just had the third maintenance done), the battery has diminished from 12-bars-max to 11-bars-max. I'm wondering if the four hour, 80% charge may be tied in to the diminished "full" level, but I haven't read anything about that and hadn't expected it.
