Well the cold weather has certainly arrived and with it comes really poor electric range.
Temperature overnight -7*C but +1 today when I had 11-mile range before completing a short journey of 5 miles. As I approached my house my engine started up as my battery had been totally used.We have a Volvo xc40 PHEV and last year was similar, during the summer months we regularly achieved 27 miles on a full charge, in fact a couple of journeys gave 30 miles but once the very cold weather returns our range falls off the edge of a cliff ?

7 mile loss sounds decent for this weather.

Toyota quote their EV range @ 0 degree C, as opposed to 25 degrees C Toyota quoted EV range is 46 miles in the summer we have seen around the 57/58 mark, the Suzuki uses a heat pump, the area we live is reasonable flat, in North Yorkshire it may be a different story, in Scotland the muck lower temperature I would imagine have some affect on range.
Our previous vehicle Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV EV range in summer 28/30 miles, winter 15/18 miles.

Down to 37 miles today extremely cold running cost around 9 pence @ mile on Octopus Agile rates, checked the Podpoint APP this morning 12 kWh at the current Octopus Agile rate average 8.9 pence @ mile still cheaper than petrol.
