Hybrid Battery question - NSX sitting for over a year

The NSX battery is likely much larger than the pack in our Lexus, which does 0-60 in 6.6 seconds.
 
I joined the forum at around 1994 after I purchased a 1994 NSX ( purchased new at that time) and the only weakness is the stero system. I keep it at top condition till I sold it at 2013. The new owner wins many local antique car beauty contect.
I recently purchase an used 2017 model. The biggest worry is that hybrid battery but after rejoining /reading this forum , looks like I just over-react with this hybrid battery. Let see.

Congrats on the purchase of your 2017. It is a great car. I feel you will be very happy with your decision. How does it feel to be again driving a NSX?
 
Just delivered few days ago and no chance to drive yet. I have already requested the saleman to fully charge the hybrid battery at the moment of delivery. He told me it he uses Sport + mode just to drive app. 15 minutes and already quickily charged the hybrid battery to full. This concurs to what I read in this forum.
I also have a 2014 R8 V10 ( doesn't like the 2nd gen. R8 to srart with that split blades) and I am more interested to find out the overall handling between R8, NSX 1st. gen( very good nimble handling feeling but a little bit under-power if evaluated with today standard) and 2nd gen.

I had a 91 NSX for 5Years and a 2001 NSX for 15 years and now a 2017 for 4 years. The 91 was pretty much stock and drove well but paled compared to the 2001. That NSX had upgraded brakes, suspension, exhaust and was supercharged. The 2001 was like a wild go cart in comparison.

The 2017 is on a whole different level. It is a supercar with the everything already optimized. Other than the SOS downpipes which provides a more visceral sound. The car in my estimation is a winner. Given I am old now, perhaps impacts my opinion. I await your input.
