Pretty impressive range - delighted!!

[Dave S]

I've just had a couple of nights away to the Kintyre peninsula (pause for Paul McCartney singing in the background).

It's a great run from Inverness, but I drove all the way on Eco, and KERS 1. The AirCon was on for a wee while on the way down, but mostly just sunroof fully open. Due to the amount of traffic, I was never much over 50 mph for long. The weather was fantastic, warm (22 C) and perfectly dry.

LOOK AT THESE STATS!!!

On the way back - 159.5 miles @ 4.6 MpKwh and overall 458 miles @ 4.5 MpKwh.

Even with my poor maths, that's touching a potential 200 miles range!!

Soooooooooooooooooo pleased!!!! Even had pretty good luck with chargers too, so no complains from me!!

And when I turned on this morning after a full charge at home - that's a very encouraging GoM reading - although I know that it'll not return that level!! I've never seen anything near 228 miles!!

Excellent! ? the current warm weather makes such a difference , I did a short journey at the weekend did stop 3 times on route but not long enough for the current journey to reset which I think is about 10 to 15 minutes of shut down but it was 30 , 40 and national speed limits and I did keep up with the traffic so very pleased with 4.9 miles kwh at one point it was 5.2 miles kwh never seen that before ?

Averaging 4.5mpk is excellent. If only the temp stayed at 22c..

That's awesome. I had a first yesterday on a short two-way trip of 20 miles each way. First stretch was motorway at 65mph, returned 3.5 miles/Kwh which is about what I'd expect (no aircon, but used MG Pilot). The return trip I did on back roads, slower average speed with a fewer bursts up to 50mph-ish, got home and checked - 5.3 miles/Kwh! I think that's the best I've had, and I wasn't trying to drive particularly conservatively. I did both these trips in normal mode and found the GOM to be pretty much accurate to the mile having started with a full charge.

Is ECO mode the best for maximum range? Maybe NORMAL is best!

I suspect SPORT isn't

Got a bit impressed this week with my zs.
Charged it night to monday. Have gone 3 trips to the office, witch is a 89.8km round trip. Also had a shopping tripp at ~3 km. And when parking now, the gom said 26km remaining. ?

Not any big hills, but I got a elevation difference of 67m (but it's up and down a bit). Speed limits are about 1/4 50and 60 km/h, 1/5 90 km/h and the rest about half n half of 70&80 km/h.

Here is my best return so far, A roads at 60mph and broads at 40 ish

 

[Shippo]

Hi, went on motorway today at 70mph, and a roads as well averaged 4.3 miles p kwh averaging 50 mph over 37 miles,18 degrees, impressive

 

[Deleted member 2439]

Methinks we will all be complaining when the first frosts appear. Heaters on, range way way down ?

 

[Shippo]

I averaged 3.6 miles p kwh over 1st 10000 miles Sept to June

 

[Phil Hayward]

This was recent trip, stayed below 60 MPH
