A lithium ion secondary battery including a positive electrode containing a positive electrode active material, a negative electrode containing a negative electrode active material, and a nonaqueous electrolyte. The positive electrode active material is a lithium transition metal oxide that contains niobium and is represented by xLi[LiMnNb]O·(1−x)LiMNbO(0<x<1, 0<xq+(1−x)r≦0.3, 0≦q≦0.3, 0≦r≦0.3, and M: at least one element selected from the group consisting of nickel, cobalt, and manganese). During initial charging, oxygen desorbs from the positive electrode active material.
