SOH 58.34%, Hx 26.64% - still driving fine.

My friends' 2017 LEAF that they drive around town still meets their needs perfectly despite the low SOH and very low Hx.

Even under acceleration, the cell voltage difference is only 25 mV (although SOC is 84%, so it does help make it look better than testing at ~40%).

Mentioning this to people who are worried about buying an older LEAF for a grocery-getter. It can still be a great buy if the price is right and the battery is fairly uniform.
