I had a little bit of a battery scare last night. Charged the car to 100% ready for a trip to Liverpool – no issues there. Arrived with about 39% battery left so on the way home, we stopped at Ionity Park in Stafford and we worked out we’d need around 70% battery to get home and once charged the range said we woule be okay but it would be close.
Dropped my son off in Cardiff and drove slower than normal on the M4 just to eke out the range. The battery level dropped to 10% and I had a warning message. Then it got down to 5% and the range disappeared so I had no idea how far I had left before she stopped.
Luckily I got home with 4% battery left. Needless to say, we should have added more charge just to be on the safer side of safe and this will not happen again.
I was bricking it during the final mile home though.
