    Yeah cold area of Scotland could be a problem esp as obv up there your journeys are that much longer.

    I don’t think 95 is realistic maybe if really pushing the car I’ve not seen any owners saying it drops that low even in winter but would depend on your driving style at that point. If the computer is close to accurate I’m getting very close to 170 miles at the moment at a balmy 12C. I’m not sure but I’m not confident EV database actually do tests themselves to establish those figures rather than host user generated figures?

    Did 60 miles today around here and got home with 108 left & just shy of 4miles/kwh.

    Just comes back to that compromise between space & range, I found none of the other EVs currently affordable had the capacity of the 2 MGs, the Kona wouldn’t fit a full lidl shop in the boot (not literally the entire store lol) plus rear room but the trade off is that huge range. I think the MG’s were the only 2 EVs I felt comfortable putting dogs in.

    If I didn’t have teenage kids & dogs I’d go for the Kona in a heartbeat or hold out & see if the Ioniq 5 comes on later this year.
