As mentioned by everyone leaves charge settings to default. High is specifically for heavy loads. No point charging the car with petrol. Might as well use petrol at destination. 140 kph is about 87 mph. I’d expect 30-35 mpg though

I’ve had phantom exits a few times in August after BMS update but it has since not happened again

With HV battery at 0% you’ll get 30-35 mpg max. If traction battery is available, hybrid usage posted it above 40.

We have 2016 Leaf30 and HS Phev. My wife primarily uses the Leaf30 and I use the HS. My wife tends to find issues with the height of the HS (compared to Outlander I had before). I’m certainly getting a bit annoyed with engine only heating but after 5k miles the car is doing very well

@MilesperkWh any way you can find this for us?

Most admit I’m getting better at it too.

It’s about keeping it in EV mode better charge, usage during day etc.

The grant amount has been steadily decreasing. Officially they can cut it at any point with 4 weeks notice.

Just don’t blast the radio? In know loudness differences between Infotainment and phones tethered but still

Look at the amps being drawn / power consumption - will tell you why miles / kWh is low when starting

Mileage for me is racking up ? Of the 5k miles I think 2000 have been Petrol driven. Just last week I topped up the car ad I needed to go into London possibly twice. That became 4 times. 500+ miles in 10 days. Thankfully EV mode gets used more than not

The shape and weight makes a big difference. Outlander never returned more than 40mpg. HS Phev tends to do better. Luckily most of my usage is local - today drove to London and back - 75 miles and got 60 mpg equivalent as I was mixing EV mode with Auto

I was thinking of going premium but have needed usage more and again and just last week I did 2x 40 miles and then 2x 60 miles. Luckily I was by Asda and added £30 worth whatever they had lost on Monday

Agreed given the choice always go for the largest possible capacity.

I haven't even gotten around to wiring the second Rolec yet :) My electrician is away and while I can do it, I am hesitating for some reason.

Type 2 is a standard and has a wide adoption and so is CCS which goes well with Type 2. I doubt that will see a change as EU has adopted both as a standard for cars sold. Who knows what incentives will be in place - as things stand, OLEV grant contribution £350 sends next year. The thing in...

Default is 3 chevron?? In slow traffic I drop to 2

HS default distance for ACC is good for motorways however for slower moving traffic I tend to dropping it to 2nd. Haven’t see any option of increasing it though I’ll check when I get in the car

Maybe that’s Gear 4? Was it as slow as the one from 44-50mph change?

Having driven from Cheshunt to Aberdeen and back with a lot of ACC and lane centring it was fun. I haven’t taken to using speed assist but so far so good
