EV general discussion

[RetiredGreyFox]

lol, I literally just checked my long term trip meter for my Cupra Born. It is at 28mph average over 9600ish miles. And I do plenty of motorway trips, but most of them are in normal traffic.

It’s almost like different people have different priorities on what makes a good EV.

Same in the eBike thread, people wanting a legal motor to be 20mph when my average speed was 10.8mph

Joining club EV Next week...

After the saga with my Santa Fe now being sorted, I decided that realistically we no longer needed 7 seats so, having always wanted an estate (and still needing room to get a few of us about and move things occasionally...) I take delivery of the Audi A6 E-Tron Avant Black Edition on Tuesday, only had the 83kwh Option available but, will be more than fine for what I use it for!

ID Polo live available to order

£32,265 for 52kW·h Style Launch with extra free kit (with £1500 grant, but I added £770 of paint to that price), 2.9%APR but PCP not attractive compared to some recent Renault 5 personal lease deals (yes I know apples and oranges)

Such bad value for money. You can get a Raval for less, and it's a launch edition one.
