I’m on Octopus Go 9p per kwh between 00:30 and 04:30 , plug it in and it’s set for delayed charge to start at 00:31 from an outdoor 3 pin socket, takes less than the 4 hours to fully charge. I’m very impressed with it, but with our low mileage i should have went full EV.
If we did not tow a caravan we would have gone the EV route, our next vehicle will be a full EV.
@oscarmax do you mind me asking which BEV you would go for? You won’t remember me but three years ago you gave me excellent advice on the Mitsubishi outlander PHEV which has been an excellent car. I think we have/had similar driving needs except for the towing. My beautiful PHEV is now due for replacement and I would like a similar high seating position as number one priority and I’d like to go full EV.
If I was to go for a full EV it would have to be a Hyundia Kona or Kia Niro, but to be honest I am with Kezo on this another SUV PHEV, we have a Suzuki Across PHEV (rebadged RAV4 PHEV) in the summer 56 miles + and in the winter 40/46 miles in EV mode use the ICE unit seeing 50 + mpg and 35 + towing a 1500kg caravan.
If you liked the Outlander PHEV you will love the Suzuki Across not quite as efficient in EV as the Hyundia/Kia but better than the majority of EV on the market.
Unfortunately I have suffered a brain injury and occasionally I get confused and often say the wrong thing.
