% charge + remains range as indicator of battery size

    Am looking at a second hand 15 Leaf. Seller does not say 24kwh or 30kwh. In a photo I noticed 65% remains with range of 100km. This indicates full range of 150km ... Which makes me wonder if this is a 30kwh battery?

    Any other way of telling (other than calling dealer?)

    Thanks guys you are all so helpful

    No. The GOM depends on the previous recent driving history, Ive seen 100km between 65 and 100% depending on the immediate preceding drive.

    It should be possible to check the vin and see if it's a 30 or 24

    There are very few 152's that are 30kWh. I think it would need to be a Dec reg in 152 to have any possibility of being a 30kWh.

    The vast majority of 30kWh Leaf's are 161+

    Any 152 30kWh would be an import from the UK.

    No 30kWh was delivered in Ireland until the 161-reg. Most of the first batch were held until late Februrary 2016 for a telematic unit recall.

    Thanks all. It's a UK car but 15 reg not 65 so looks more like 24kwh?

    How do I get / lookup VIN?

    Definitely a 24kWh so.
    Why do you want the VIN?

    Am interested in the VIN as a possible way of confirming the battery size where it's not stated in add.
