On a couple of occasions, I unplugged at work at 80% and after commuting 20 miles home ended up with 81% of battery. Dashboard showing around 5 mi/kWh for that journey. It's all just guesstimation after all...

When I got my ZS EV gen 2 trophy in March 2023 front passangers doors failed to open from inside intermittently. Lock mechanism was due for replacement under warranty in June (long wait for part). By this time the fault stopped appearing. Possibly due to warmer weather... Got it done anyway...

Switching battery heating on around 20 minutes before rapid charging will improve the charging speed. Never seen more than 86kW on my MK2.

I have ordered Monument Silver. Ended up with a red one. Happy with it... But still think silver ones look the best. And are quite rare... At least where I leave...

Is the charging level in the app set to 90% by any chance? Would that override cars 80%?

"Around 10.35 pm on Sunday, 1 October, we received a report of a driver unable to stop his electric car on the A803 heading towards Kirkintilloch," a Police Scotland spokesperson said. "The car was travelling at a low speed and officers carried out a controlled halt with the aid of a police...

On the main screen tap the name of your car on top. That will take you to Vehicle Management screen.

Where do you see manufacture date in the app? I can see only "Year Model 2021" which would be correct...

10000 miles done since March. Avareged 3.4 mls/kWh. Lots of it on motorways at 70 miles per hour. Last two months more rural roads. Usually normal or sport mode. Never Eco. Kers 3. AC almost always on. I drive the way it gives me the most pleasure. Not really bothered by efficiency.

"Silver". That was the colour I've originally ordered. Ended up with the red one. Just a little reminder what that car could have been...

After 4 months of driving I can very confidently say I like it. Some of the things I like about it would be probably the same for any EV: how easy and comfortable it is to drive. Never really noticed the level of noise and vibrations from the engine in ICE car till I started driving EV. I like...

8k in 4.5 months Again more than I was expecting. I definitely drive more cause I enjoy it more and it does not cost me more... 15k service might need to be done this side of Christmas.

Unfortunately I don't... I just have done that. It's (11473414) like those known not to work :/ Car going in for another repair in couple weeks time. Might as well ask them to check it then....

Would be interesting to know when cut off date was exactly. My car was delivered in March, but was manufactured in October last year. Does it have v2l or not? How can we check without splurging on adapter?

Wow. This really cheeky how they quietly removed v2l from the brochure... But they kept over the air updates... Which are non existing. Lol Don't think many people use v2l, but those who intended and got car without it will be really upset. Rightly so...
