I quick charged my Leaf over 350 times in 2 years and it barely degraded the battery.
I’ve had my iX for 2.5 years and have logged 122k miles. I haven’t noticed any degradation in battery capacity. Just the normal summer/winter fluctuations (live in Midwest).
I had one with the battery that lasted just under 12 years.... Old original BMW batteries are built different! Especially if the car is driven regularly.
Same with my 2008 BMW 535d. 900ah and still going strong
I had a battery in a 93 BMW last forever like that
Regardless, while that’s sorta old for a battery, I have OEM BMW batteries going on 12 years with 89% charge capacity.
My Nissan eats batteries, about every 2 years. Nissan brand or not. It just likes new ones I guess
San Antonio Leaf driver here, a Leaf is fine in Texas as long as you don't want to do road trips (battery heating gets to be an issue around 250 miles on a 40kWh on the interstate). This sub is overwhelmingly negative on the Leaf, despite it being a good local commuter.
they do suffer more with battery degredation due to crap thermal management (older models).
Our other car, the 2016 Leaf, kinda is the embodiment of all the negative talking points you hear about, since it's an older EV: It uses an outdated & slower charging standard, has a small battery, and has significant battery degradation (29%) since Nissan decided, in their infinite wisdom, to not give the Leaf a coolant loop for the batteries. (Heat is the biggest killer for EV batteries).
