EV ran out @12% battery but can be anywhere between 12% and 15% depending on the cars mood 😂
@12% I neeed 12.14kW to top up to full 13.8kW (12.14kW x 0.22p = £2.67)
@15% I need 11.73kW to top up to full 13.8kW (11.73kW x 0.22p = £2.58)
Bare in mind I only managed to charge 92% on the return journey.
For simplicity 2 charges = £5.20
The Tucson holds 42l or 9 gallons. I returned home with a smidge over half a tank. to get a more accurate reading, I need to fill the tank however my previous Tucson petrol guage was pretty accurate.
Lets say I used half a tank (21l / 4.5 gallon) x £1.37l = £28.78
£28.77 fuel cost + £5.20 charging costs = £33.97
£33.97 / 320 miles = 10.5p a mile
I am going back up in a couple of Saturdays to atten my grandaughters christening and I bet a pound to a piece of sh!t the fuel in the tank will get me there and back, as long as I’m able to charge again on my return 😂
I am in the process of switching to Octopus 1yr fixed, at rates near damn Ofgens current SVR rates for Wales (22.2p). You don’t need a smart meter for this tariff and advice you, to consider such a tariff to safeguard rates increasing from next month and over winter, which will only add to running costs! My family are in England and my parents have switched to this tariff, at a cheaper kWh rate than me in Wales. Something for you to think about 🙂
