Leaf battery degradation.

Does anyone have any information on battery degradation. I know the leaf lost a lot of battery capacity pretty fast?
I kept a lot of data concerning range vs. temperature for my 2015 leaf. The curve from the first year reasonably matched the curve for the third year. There was certainly no significant change over three years and 20,000 miles. Location is Midcoast Maine where it is seldom hot in the summer. Most charging was done with the L1 that came with the car. We know that quick charge does more harm than the L2 so perhaps the L2 does more harm than the L1 . When it is convenient to use the L1 with the Bolt I do so which covers most charging. The Bolt is a wonderful car but I do miss my Leaf a bit :crying:
