Battery OEM Nissan or OEM Hyundai

I’ve had a Hyundai Kona EV for 6 years now. I live in Kelowna BC where we get cold winters (-20C) and warm summers (+40C).

My Kona gets about 375-425 km range in dead of winter. It gets 475-525km range in summer. These values are the same now as they were 6 years ago when I bought it

It has a 64KwH battery. I have a level 2 charger in my garage (I put a 30amp dryer plug in the wall) my charger is programmed to charge over night 12am - 6am. That’s when I pay the least for power. Between $.09 - $.15 KwH

I drive around 100km each day or maybe 12-15KwH. Cost me between $1.08 - $2.25 each day to charge it. Max per month is around $70.00

If it was gas it would cost me about $250 -$300/month. I figure I’ve saved, over the last 6 years a minimum of $13,000.00 on fuel costs.

Don’t forget no oil changes, no break jobs (still

Original brakes in mint condition, regenerative brake system)

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

my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 has 71k+ miles and coming up on 3 years of ownership. I plug in when, where, how I want. ONE thousand charging sessions. It has ZERO range loss.....300 miles per charge still. I have no battery degradatiion. State of Health = 100%.

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.

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.

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.

I got a battery from Nissan under warranty. It has a 7 year 84K warranty if I recall. That battery less than 6 months later gave a fault and they replaced it again. '22 SV

the oem nissan battery had been replaced about a year prior, and it died in my driveway. the oem nissan batteries are crap.

I went through the same last month. 2019 Nissan LEAF I bought as a Certified Used Car from a Nissan dealership out of state last year with only 6,998 miles on it. They included the Nissan Factory Wrap warranty and I also bought an extended power chain warranty ( with a really good discount) too. My car was 52 months old when I experienced the No Start condition due to the 12 volt battery.

We're having the same issue on our 22 Pathfinder. We're on our second battery. The first was replaced under warranty in January '24 after failing and stranding my wife out of town in the cold. It took 6 hours of testing before they would approve replacement.
