Nissan Leaf in Sri Lanka drive to Uphill

Nissan Leaf - Drive to Kurunegala light weight


I’m going to share my Nissan LEAF trip from Wennappuwa to Kurunegala which was recorded on 2016 Dec 03. I stated the journey around 9am. This time I went by myself without heavy luggage by my Nissan Leaf car.  I started to drive when the battery was 79% of Nissan Leaf car. My route: Wennappuwa-Dankotuwa-Giriulla-Naramala-Kurunegala-Hiripitiya. I went the same route about 1 month ago with passengers and luggage weight around 450kg. click here to watch that video. The Total distance was about 95km. Let’s see how I drive to the destination this time. J


When I reached to Makandura(21km) the battery drained to 61% from 79% (18% wasted).  When I reached to Pannala (27km) the battery drained 58% (21% consumed).  I used cruise control mostly from Pannala to Narammala.  When I reached to Giriulla (39km) the battery drained 51% (28% consumed). I drove my Nissan Leaf Car in D mode most of the time (not Eco). When I reached to Narammala (55km) the battery drained 41% (38% consumed). I had a small break in Narammala.
When I reached to Kurunegala town (79km) the battery drained to 24% (55% consumed). There are several up hills up to Kurunegala. 
So when I reached to the destination (95km) 17% remaining battery from 79%.

Total Destination: 95km
Total Battery Wastage: 62%
km/per 1% = 1.53km (95/62)
