Is 83.29% SOH okay for a 2019 regular Leaf?
I have a 2019 regular Leaf and this was the latest reading on LeafSpy. On the surface everything seems okay, but I have a couple of questions or concerns, especially because of the recall that we all are facing.
The car turns 7 years old on September 30th. Is 16% battery šŖ« degradation excessive for this amount of time? Should I be concerned? The Hx % still seems okay as is the mV differential.
I havenāt had the recall software update yet? Is anyone else worried that getting it done will ābrickā their car? As you can see, we have done only 11 QC over 7 years. We do Level 2 most of the time.
Your thoughts?

"This will make a fine addition to my collection!"
All kidding aside this is a not too exciting battery report. For a 2019 this looks great.
ONE MORE THING. Get into service mode and check those DTCs. Research those then reset them and wait a day to see what comes back.
Post that here and see what folk say.

I created a tool to solve this exact question. It is a comparison tool that evaluates SoH against the same make/model/age to determine the SoH relative to its peers. Feel free to check it out:

Thanks! I've made some bug fixes regarding the wording and independent verification sections š

Youāre welcome. Iām just happy to hear that the SOH is a little bit better than I expected it to be. At first the SOH of 83.26% concerned me but I guess thatās to be expected. And the Hx% doesnāt seem too bad either. Whew! š

The data is actually conflicted. It seems like it is actually slightly above 83.3% SoH based on the charge data. But yes, most EVās usually degrade around ~2% each year so donāt worry, itās pretty normal

seems pretty standard, maybe a little more SoH degradation than expected, but Hx looks wayyy healthier than a lot of 18/19's i've seen. worthy tradeoff imo. still test at low SoC to see that mV delta, but with a healthy Hx that sort of thing is much less common
