    Thats not good but, depends where you drive. I normally see around that figure or lower popping to local shops Taking daughter  school an back is around 38+ when not charged. The good new’s I’m still getting 32-33 electric range taking daughter school, which is a mile or two less than I need.

    The hectic last 3 weeks, has seen me diving in all weathers including a blizzard. The car itself handled favourably, although I do think cars with 4wd should come standard with all season tyres at least but then that would make range worse😂. Sadly my dad passed last Friday, so things are alot quiter now, including myself and now back to charging regularly. Fuel economy wouldn’t have been good based on the amount I put in but, as you will appreciate, I didn’t pay much attention to how uneconomical it probably was. I remain confident that sticking to something with an ICE was the right thing to do, as I would never forgiven myself if charging had prevented me getting there at the crucial moment!

    One thing, I did note was using sat nav alot due to the weather and possible diversions, was the car never charged itself to 100%, rather the battery never charged beyond 22% even on a motorway journey I did to Cardiff.
