Hopefully your range expectations aren't set too unreasonably high and the Leaf didn't reside in a hot climate. How many miles on it? How many capacity bars lost?
Seems like the origin was in socal, but later moved up here to the bay area. Not much if any degradation that I can tell. I haven't plugged in a leaf spy yet to check out the battery, but when fully charged it shows 12 bars at ~82 miles.
It's highly unlikely any So Cal based 2011 Leaf actually has all 12 capacity bars remaining, unless its battery was replaced.
Do you know the difference between the "fuel bars" and the capacity bars? http://www.electricvehiclewiki.com/File:Scott_3_bars_s.jpg shows 3 capacity bars were lost (the thinnest ones on the right). That indicator has nothing to do w/how fully charged the battery is.
And the 82 miles is just the stupid GOM (guess-o-meter). It is worthless and useless for determining battery health/condition.
Your sig also mentions "solar roof". What solar roof? Leaf never had one. There is the near useless solar panel on the rear spoiler...
