A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery including a positive electrode collector electrically connected to a positive electrode plate, a negative electrode collector electrically connected to a negative electrode plate. At least one of the collectors includes a first-side base portion disposed near the sealing plate, and a first-side lead portion connected to one end portion of the first-side base portion and extending towards an electrode body. The first-side lead portion includes a first-side power generating element joining portion joined to a lateral side of the electrode body, and a first-side inclined portion inclined with respect to a thickness direction of the electrode body from the first-side power generating element joining portion towards an outer side in the thickness direction. A total weight of the electrode body and nonaqueous electrolyte contained in the electrode body ranges from 200 g or more to 500 g or less.
