is it just me or does my Nissan Leaf actually take a lot longer to charge the colder it is? (home wall socket)

 

during summer it would complete charging by a certain period

 

during winter i had to add 2 hours to the period and still sometimes it won't finish charging

 

is that normal?

Is the car outside? I think this is normal.

Yes, to get an optimal charge a tesla would heat up the battery pack, i don't believe the leaf does this.

Much like any other battery, they don't like temperature extremes, so this information would not surprise me at all.
