abrp does not know the price of gas/kwh - it's giving bs.It literally tells you on ABRP the cost based on the car you select
e: yes - would be wonderful if you could travel to South of France for £50

yes mpg , calculation I made with 0.55e/kwh and 3m/kwh would be 183e electric for 1000miles
1.8e/L and 50mpg 164e
using A8 charger, i'd linked earlier and carrefour petrol.
but unlikely to get 50mpg at top autoroute speed 80mph and 3m/kwh probably blown out too,
ok that only reconfirms need for a home charger , but would nonetheless be painful on your holiday

Tesla superchargers are a lot cheaper especially when charging outside of peak hours and yes you can charge non Tesla EVs on them for a little more or the same if you buy £10 a month subscription which would pay for itself on a trip like that.I was using a public charger for costing ... and I'd used the cheap electricity

e: those 241kwh cost 156e , 132e for fast slow.

And 95% of the time it’s people who never even driven an EV not to mention owning one.Every other forum I'm on with EV threads, or Facebook groups are flooded with same.
Kuga, Toyota and Mazda PHEVs aren't an option unfortunately as they are 2.5L and neither party will want to pay the 2000cc+ mileage rate!
Pretty frequent. I'm probably about 60-70% office based, the rest is onsite with customers anywhere in the UK. Lots of nights away and it's this aspect that the management are reluctant to go EV because charging infrastructure in hotels is a bit patchy, certainly within the places we currently stay.I guess it comes down to how frequent the work trips are. Because it wasn't that often I could put up with a quick charge stop if it was saving me a ton of money in the bigger picture. But with larger mileage comes higher depreciation and it can effect financing. There's that to consider also.
That said there's a bit of overhead with new tech. Not everyone wants to bother with it. So if someone wants to stick with what they know, each to their own.

My brother in law does 7-10k a month in a Suzuki Swace which is a cheap Corolla and he's really happy with it, 5-600 miles to 35l.I also need to keep in the back of my mind... Do I just swallow the bigger BIK, get myself a Corolla and simplify the day to day running.
