Does anyone know if there are people or shops willing to do a battery

The range in my Leaf was a dismal 20 miles in our sub zero weather
last
winter. It certainly isn't going to be any better this winter :)
I've been looking to simply buy a new EV, which may make the most
sense,
but am not finding anything that meets my needs and isn't too
expensive.
I'd like something I can take on modest road trips, which means I
would
want a reasonably fast L3 recharge from 10% to 80%, like 30 minutes.
And
not over $40k including tax, etc.
The Bolt EV is close, but I think it's charge time is about 1h 20,
which
makes it impractical for road trips. There are several models, e.g.
Kona, which I think are a bit over $40k all costs included that charge
in, perhaps 40 minutes (probably acceptable). But another option could
be to extend the life of my leaf and see what options are on the
market
in 2-3 years. I need to look at that before making a decision.
If I keep the leaf, it wouldn't be for road trips. But I would like to
be able to make a 50 mile RT in 0F weather. That probably means having
a
30kWh battery, at least. I'm figuring about 60% range at 0F and 30kWh
should give somewhere close to 100 miles under good conditions, right
?
Does anyone know if there are still people replacing 2011 leaf
batteries
in the greater seattle area ?
Thanks,
Peri
