Back to range. Remember my issue was regular trips from Perth to Busselton with a small battery Excite 51. You'll be pleased to know that despite strong head winds, air con all the way and sitting on 110 kms/hr most of the way(215 kms) I got there with 30% battery still remaining. Didn't raise a...

Thanks everyone for your input.
Sounds like weather and driving conditions are going to be a big factor. I have a house with a garage and future charge point in Busselton so charging there is not a problem. I've also got a bomby 4wd there. So worst case scenario would be a quick top up in...
I'm interested in purchasing a new EV4 and am hoping the 51 will be OK for my needs. But my regular commutes will be a 230 km highway trip from Perth to Busselton. In summer with the aircon on and sitting on 100 kms an hour most of the way will I make it on a full charge. Can anyone with...
