I'm in New Zealand. I've had my eZS since November 14th. At first, the range was just as I would have expected. I went for a long drive the day after getting the car It easily did 193km before the battery low light appeared. Awesome.
But the range has gradually been declining. Day to day, I don't really notice as I live in a small town and might only drive 10km.
But when I attempt longer trips I find my range to flat is now, effectively, about 150km. Last week, I drove 670km to Wellington and returned the next day. I wasnt able to drive more than 100km without getting the low battery warning. Sometimes even less. When I charged, from 6% to 96% (in one example) the car only gained 23kWh. That means my max charge seems to now be 26-27kWh..... The same as my 2016 30kWh LEAF.
I seem to have lost access to about 15kWh......
I have the warranty process underway - awkward at Xmas / NY - and will be taking the car back to dealer next week for them to have a look. This just isn't right. The attached image was a charge yesterday from 12% to 100%..... Only gaining 21.8kWh.
Thankfully there is no Covid here in NZ, so getting this looked at is life as usual...... But a pain regardless.
