Hi Richard,
Not really suitable – range is too low. I often do over 100 miles a day, sometimes 160 in not so warm rural Scotland with no access to a charger during the day. In winter the ZS highway range is 95 miles, given you don’t want to go under 10% charge (well, really 20% – but I’m being generous) that gives around 85 miles – which is too close to my daily commute of 81 miles to be comfortable, let alone the days I need to travel the extra miles.
The MG 5 would probably be better, but even then its cutting it fine. I’ll go look at it, the dealer is just down the road.
VW’s ID3 is out due to rear wheel drive – Scotland in winter is no place for a RWD car with instant torque and summer tyres…
In life, it's not who you know that's important, it's how your wife found out.
