Just collected this yesterday, coming from a MINI Countryman and can say I’m very impressed.

Batteries were flat and still got over 55mpg on the runs we did yesterday, have charged it overnight for 80p and we’ll see what I get today.

Build quality is awesome and very easy to drive.

Did you order it last Quarter at the £295 Advance Payment? Absolute bargain for a PHEV. Congrats.

@wmcforum I actually ordered it at £495 in May but dealer dropped the AP to £295 in July, so got back £455 from  NCB and £250 GCB so free holiday….

This was todays useage, as I’m new to electric mileage numbers, is this about right?

[Oscarmax]

You cannot complain excellent figures, nice to see another PHEV convert, even with the heating and aircon on we are still seeing just over 50 miles in EV mode and 55 mpg plus on petrol, glad you are pleased.

Unfortunately I have suffered a brain injury and occasionally say the wrong thing.

Renault are nailing it.

Juat look at your card statements for a .month an compare what you spent on petrol with tour old car  an now.

The leccy will be peenuts. Keep battery topped up from house an yaa use very little petrol.

Bet you savin money
