What test conditions? My main issue is that I cannot find a long enough and relatively flat freeway surface.

229km, 70 km to work at 55km/hr avg, 90km home with a detour dropped to 45km/hr avg. From there I drove back roads around my home about 40km/hr avg till 217. 10km more looping a parking lot across the street. At 227 km I got bored, no turtle yet so I looped around for 2km flooring it after every stop sign, about 6 times full throttle 0 to 40km/hr, hit turtle in front of my driveway.

So what are the temperatures like in MA and Ontario these next 4-6 weeks?
It'll be interesting to see if these numbers hold up while it's still warm out.
In my 2012 if I use the vehicle daily with battery temps in the 25-30C range
I would certainly see Ah and Gid degradation in 4-6 weeks...

FWIW, we traveled 70 miles to a QC recently and had 37 miles showing when we got there, nothing faster than 50-55 mph on secondary roads.

Do you know your efficiency? From what you describe, sounds like you were going slowly all the time. You would have to go slow to get 229km (142mi). FYI, if the 2015 is like the 2013 I have, you will have 5-8 miles before turtle when the last fuel bar disappears.
The fact that you've only lost ~30 Gids in 19k mi / 21 months in your 2012 leads me to believe you're not in a very warm climate..DNAinaGoodWay said:Today's warmer than it's been all summer, around 90, but due to be in 70's next week, then who knows? We 'll see.

Isn't kWh derived from GIDs? If Nissan has changed the meaning of GIDs, owners will likely only discover it slowly and empirically, as they have with previous models/changes.

The LEAF does not report kWh. It only reports GIDs. kWh is derived from GIDS by multiplying by a constant.

GIDS - 292
kwh - 22.63
% cap - 97.17
HX - 88.84
Ahr - 64.38
I'm keeping a log to see where it goes; not sure why HX was so low on the first reading as it was 99.78 the next time, and high 90's ever since. Longest range so far was 100 miles with 12% left at 5.6mi/kwh in high 80's temps.
