What is the true mileage with air conditioner on? There are many MODES you can drive in. For examples, you have Eco mode with B combined for regenerative power. Then you have Eco and D which is in the middle. Then you have just D for Drive mode for maximum speed. Of course these modes are affected by air conditioner on full maximum power which depletes battery by 20% -30% percent! VIVNE claims 304 miles for battery life, however did not specify which MODE this tested in? Also with air conditioner on? True mileage will vary on which modes you choose and conditions.
We usually drive in D mode. In summer time, if with the air conditioner on, depletes battery by 10% percent, yet depletes more when in winter time. We had also tested the range with full highway and air conditioner is on the whole time. Please check the other testing videos in the channel. Thank you.
@@VIVNEHelenMao Ty for your reply. I notice the one you are referring to is a Generation 2 Leaf or with new body style.

But I can tell you mine is a 2015 Leaf with the Gen 1 body style, in fact it looks like the one in this video with same white paint. Do you think that the air conditioner depletion is less compared to the newest generation to the previous generation? You claim 10% depletion with air conditioning but what about Generation 1 style of Leaf? If you can test air conditioner depletion with Generation 1 it might be better example because I think the newer Leaf have better technology in the software or build to distribute energy from air conditioner than previous Generation.

No need for Can bridge. We had re-programmed the BMS. The 62kwh pack is only 85kgs heavier than original, which just as taking an adult in your car. So no need to change the rear springs. Also no other software need to be upgraded.
0-80% fast charging takes about 1 hour and 15 minutes, 0-100% takes about 2 hours. LFP batteries cannot be used on Leaf cars. Car range is 430kms. Fast charge time from 1 to 2 hours.

We replace from the original soft battery to big CATL cells. Generate less heat and bears a much smaller C rate. The big CATL cells can withstand 3C charge/discharge and can also withstand continuous charge/discharge of more than 1C. Take our 62kwh for example, fast charge power of Leaf is 47kw, at maximum current of 150A, we replace with 180Ah big CATL cells, so the charging rate is even less than 1C.
You know 567km is alot to promise, how fast were they driving ? Range better than the stock Nissan Leaf 62kwh sounds too good to be true. Could you send me a free sample for testing ? What are your warranty terms ?
The Leaf owner was driving with 50-70km/h. 567 kilometers is the data the Leaf owner actual drove. Car range is affected by many factors. Could you let us know more about you first? We provide 2 year or 80,000kms warranty. You can email to: helen@vivnevs.com or add Whatsapp: +86 18717786639

Not at all! I go on my leaf relatively frequently on 800+ mile round trips. In California it's pretty doable and almost free(Los Angeles to bay area and back). But I have relatively small pack, about 35 kWh usable capacity. Biggest problem begins with relatively uncomfortable seats in such distance. In my case relatively small pack is a good thing, every 2 hours I have about 30-40 minutes to rest while car is charging.
I'm hoping there's a garage here in New Zealand that would do this. I have 72% SoH 2015 30kwh Nissan Leaf. I really need battery replacement a year or 2 from now :(

The car is in very good condition and the owner drives the car with great care. He also plans to drive another 200,000 kms after replacing the battery, so it is worth it.
It depends of the price. But you must understand one thing: a first battery Leaf 24 kWh can't make easily more than 200000km because of a limites number of charge (1000, 1500 ). 1 charge of thid battery gives about 120 km, so 200000km IS for me the higher distance you Can expect. But, if you change thé old battery by another with more range (62 kWh), you Can expect to drive between 300000 km and 400000 km. On m'y opinion, that's a very good Idea. (Sorry for m'y Bad english language, I'm french)
