Hi:
I have had my Leaf since July 2013. I love the car, and it works perfect for me - 50.3 mi. round trip commute to work. However during Covid I haven't driven it much at all (maybe 20 mi/ WEEK! - all very local).
Now my employer is demanding that we come back to the office.
I notice that when I drive the car after a charge - it says I have about 50 mi. , and then after driving 10 miles it'll say that I have have 20 miles left - but still show 75% of the bars.
(a) I don't want for the battery to die on (and have to get towed) but I want to know how many miles I can get - if I can get 55 mi to work w/typical highway driving
(B) if not - what can I do ? Can I get a new battery? Is it worth it?
thx
