The winter climate here is typically 30-40F.
When the car was new, I could see power consumption rise to about 3-4KW, then slowly drop as the car warmed.
Now it exhibits this behavior:
Power consumption varies between zero and .7kW. When at zero, I can turn off the car, back on again and it started drawing power, maybe back to .75 kW.
Lately never above .5kW.
If I turn on the defroster, power drops to zero.
A friend's 2013 Leaf draws considerable power, as much as 3.5Kw.
I have an appointment Friday with the local dealer, we'll see.
