Battery OEM Nissan or OEM Honda

My EV is 8 this year. I've not noticed a drop in range over that time, but I'll find out when it goes in for its last battery health check before the warranty expires.

I quick charged my Leaf over 350 times in 2 years and it barely degraded the battery.

After several tests they were able to get the battery fail code they were looking for. Nissan replaced the battery with a new one, and so far so good.

My '11 Fit had a aftermarket 151R battery. Mine occasionally produced a similar noise such as this on cold day starts. I think the noise stems from the starter, perhaps the starter solenoid that doesn't retract after you release the key from start position. My issue went away after I replaced the battery

I'm in central Texas and the Leaf does just fine for in city driving. The batteries run hotter than a liquid cooled battery does of course but they are capable of operating at Texas summer temperatures. Where they struggle is on long highway trips. High speeds mean more load on the battery which also means more heat and more likely to have the car limit power due to battery temps. I have noticed that Leafs in Texas do tend to show more battery degradation and less capacity than leafs that are in cooler climate.

The stock battery in my 2016 Honda died after four years.

I have a 2015 Nissan LEAF SV. In -25C or colder (and to be fair, it's rarely -25C (not counting the windchill) during the day), with moderate heat on (set heat to 19C or less) plus heated steering wheel and heated seats (both of which use relatively very little power), I can lose a good 60% of my range

they do suffer more with battery degredation due to crap thermal management (older models).

Some of these OEM batteries they choose to use are shit.

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Leaf, kinda is the embodiment of all the negative talking points you hear about, since it's an older EV: It uses an outdated & slower charging standard, has a small battery, and has significant battery degradation (29%) since Nissan decided, in their infinite wisdom, to not give the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).
