    James i have solar panels but i dont have a smart meter yet.

    Ianfca absolutely, our journey type was always a problem with our other car especially as we have a 1 in 10 hill we must climb for 50% of our journeys.

    Oscarmax your figures are way more impressive than mine you must be saving a shed load of money.

    Its strange how much more enjoyable it is driving this car, on our last XC40  the brakes were a problem, they were a bit “lumpy” whereas with this car they are far more smooth.

    Driving in electric mode is great, no real noise and no gear shift, just smooooooth driving.

    I use a granny charger and i have no intention in getting a wall charger, even when i go full BEV, until V2G wall chargers are available. Doing the short journeys we do i see no need for a wall charger to be honest.
