I have a 2018 SL with 60 000 km on it. I bought it 10 months ago. The battery has been replaced two months ago, and is about to be replaced again, all under warranty. Besides the battery problems, I really really like the car.
The dealer where I'm having the 2018 serviced has a 2022 SL+ 53000 km for sale for a reasonable price. It's tempting: 62kwh battery, more powerful motor, and 4 more years of battery warranty. The problem is that they're giving me less than half of what I paid for my 2018 ten months ago, and that would mean monthly payments that I'm not sure are worth it.
The salesman was kind enough to let me connect LeafSpy onto the 2022. I've included a screenshot of the battery state. It looks really good to me, but heh, I don't know much about this. I only know about my 2018 and hope you'll understand why I give the battery that much importance over everything else
Now everything looks the same on the 2022 as on my 2018. No much of an upgrade except for the battery and the warranty.
Are there any deal-breaking reasons not to make the switch? Any deal-making reasons to make it?
