Nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery including lithium fluorosulfonate

Provided is a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery in which lithium fluorosulfonate is added to a nonaqueous electrolytic solution and which demonstrates excellent low-temperature performance. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery disclosed herein includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a nonaqueous electrolytic solution. The positive electrode includes a positive electrode active material layer. The positive electrode active material layer includes, as a positive electrode active material, a lithium transition metal composite oxide including at least lithium, nickel, manganese, and cobalt. The nonaqueous electrolytic solution includes lithium fluorosulfonate. A dibutyl phthalate absorption amount of the positive electrode active material is 28 mL/100 g or more and 45 mL/100 g or less. A content of lithium fluorosulfonate in the nonaqueous electrolytic solution is 0.15% by mass or more and 1.0% by mass or less.
