Here's the opening lines from this article about a book chronicling the fall of Better Place.
https://www.greencarreports.com/new...y-of-better-place-and-its-failure-book-review

It is just over five years since I bought my Better Place Renault 2012 Fluence ZE in Israel—and a little over five months since I returned it to Israel’s Renault importer for a cash settlement.
By that time, the 22-kilowatt-hour battery capacity was down to 11.3 kwh, and a warning light had been on continuously since July 2016.

Sounds even worse than a 1st-gen LEAF in a warm climate... Just more proof that the i-MiEV was a wise choice in 2011-12 for a 'buy and hold' driver.
