Leaf Battery Care
Additional Information
With proper car and use, your Leaf battery can last for 100,000 miles and longer, even in southern climates.
The #1 thing to avoid is multiple DC fast charges in the same day (i.e. road tripping). Especially in the South. Your 220V home charger (or 110v) is not the problem, and will not introduce an extraordinary amount of heat into your battery, but the public DC fast charges will. Multiple same day DC fast charges will degrade your Leaf battery.
The #2 thing to avoid is any DC fast charging. Once a day, especially a coolerday, won't lead to rapid degradation, but it won't improve your battery's life either.
The #3 item is to keep you battery charged below 80% and above 20% whenever possible.
