Hi All,
Looking for advice/feedback on a 2012 Leaf I'm looking at for a second car for city runabout duty. Will not be used every day, typical usage probably 5-10 miles a day, and worst case about 20mi.
2012 Leaf
80,000mi
9 bars
65.84% SOH (sigh..)
4748 L1/L2s (jeez..)
from Florida (explains above)
$~3.5k
Otherwise clean overall, mechanically sound, and drives well.
Looks like it was charged almost daily for most of its life. And I'm sure life in FL didn't help. But for the mission and price, it sounds like a reasonable match.
Can I reasonably expect 40 mi of range under good conditions out of this car? Maybe 20-30mi in ~30F weather (winters here are pretty mild)? How much further degradation should I expect over the coming 2-3 years if I take reasonable care of the battery?
TIA!
