EV general discussion

Meanwhile my car is currently at Gatwick airport with 61% charge a projected range of 263 miles.

What’s it’s gonna be on when you get back to it though?

People say about expecting good service when buying a car as it is the "second most expensive thing you will ever buy", I was just pointing out that you can't necessarily expect better for the most expensive thing you will ever

People can also be excused to think that buying new = no issues. It absolutely should, but the reality, just as it is with many cars, is that this simply isn't the case.

I've never been under any illusion that spending more necessarily gets anyone a better service, my point was people need to complain and not allow businesses to set their own agenda when it comes to dealing with these customer service complaints.

Phantom drain? None that I am aware of.

Dropped it off at the official valet parking with 62%. They drove it 2.7 miles to an off-site carpark and it dropped to 61% and has been the same for my entire holiday.

Decent efficiency again over the past couple of months in the ID4.
My trips to Slough and back from Derby each week are now getting me around 3.8-4m/kwh
Now averaging 3.5m/kwh over 42k miles.
Car is still on original tyres with about 3.5mm of tread left , that's not too shabby for a heavy vehicle.
Last couple of months of ownership and then it goes back to be replaced with the EV3.
