Moving up in the rankings!

With the warm weather and summer tires, we've been eeking close to 9km/kWh this past week. Average for the month so far has been over 8, which is something we probably didn't even dream of when we first got the car over the winter.

Would be interesting to see what our winter efficiency is next year, after getting the hang of eco driving!

Following shows the "regional" rankings on Nissan Connect.

Given the fact that we started with rank 9554 in Jan, I would guess that "regional" in this case applied to the entire North America, since I think there were less than 6000 Leafs in Canada at that point in time.

Stacked up against the entire world, we're almost in the top 10%!

And in Canada, we've hit the top 25!

"leaft6yxk" is not the most interesting name, and was auto generated by Nissan Connect support when we were having trouble setting things up. Unfortunately it seems like the 2018 customers are still experiencing issues with the service. Hope Nissan can up their game on the IT front at some point. I've been really happy with the mere existence of the telemetry data, but having more reliable and faster servers would greatly improve the customer experience!

April, 2018

Another month has passed.

It was definitely warmer, and as a result efficiency has gone up a bit more. Tallying up the numbers:

Charging Efficiency: 84%
Total Grid in:  112.2 + 22.1 (public) = 134 kWh
Total Battery Out: 113 kWh
Average Temperature: 4C
Kilometers Driven: 780 km
Grid to road km/kWh:  5.53 km/kWh
Battery to road km/kWh: 6.9 km/kWh
Charging days: 14 (once every 2.1 days)

The graph in the previous post should include this most recent data point... :)
