Hi everyone!
I'm in the process of looking at a 2011 leaf with 79k miles. The battery only has 6 bars, so it's pretty much shot. The car is priced just under $5k USD and I live in a hot state.
With all that in mind, do I finally pull the trigger to move to an EV or is this one too far gone? I don't recall if fast charging was introduced in 2011 or if it came later, but my work has a free charging bay and the commute is about 30 miles each way.
Looking at the battery degradation charging my it should be enough to get me each way on a full charge, but if the bay is used one day before I get to work I might be out of luck.
Thanks for any help and advice!
