    2021 model Kona 64kw. 100% in this weather 235 miles.

    Turn auto climate on at 21 it drops to 203. I need it on all the time in this weather as it mists up quite easily.

    I done a drive the other day 208 round trip with two adults and radio on. Outside temp was between 9-11 degrees the whole journey. Dry and not much wind. 2 miles stop start city driving around 5mph to 15mph. 100 miles motorway way at 65mph and 2 miles city driving around 15mph to 30mph.

    Going down at 65mph used 101 miles of range that left 134 mile range and gave 3.9 mi/kw which would easily get me home but I wanted to drive back at 78mph.

    Stopped at 50kw charger, charging speed first 10min was 42kw and added 23 miles. Done another ten minutes and it added 20 miles, total added for 20 mins was 43 miles. By this stage it was starting to slow down as I was approaching 76%

    Exact same drive home at 78mph with auto climate at 21 similar conditions. Started the return journey with 177 mile range and got home with 34 miles left and used 2.9mi/KW.

    Drive back used used an extra 42 miles range at higher speed.

    Journey down took an extra 30 minutes.
