Real world consumption in Cyberster (GT)

[Shelmec]

First time EV owner in waiting here, with a Cyberster GT "on the way".

Whilst I wait (with increasing impatience) for mine to make it from UK port to dealer, I've been wondering what those lucky folk who are driving them are seeing in terms of real-world energy consumption.

Could we share details of achieved miles/kW (or other equivalent stats) so I can get an idea for route planning what the real range is likely to be?

Congrats on your new motor, when you get it.

Trophy model, not GT, but I'm getting 3.0 mi/kWh from the battery, with 12.5% charging losses from AC charging at home, so 2.6 mi/kWh of electricity paid for, equating to 8.95p per mile.

Another Trophy, with the screen showing anywhere between 3-4 miles/kWh.
But I’m still wondering how & where I managed to get this below spike somewhere in the last few drives.

I am fast driver so maybe not the best to compare but you get an idea with a heavy foot on pedal

My real world driving is 3.6 miles/kWh GT, going down a lot in fun driving.

How is this 3.6 measured? The GT's WLTP range is only 276 miles, so 3.7 mi/kWh. To achieve a real-world consumption of 3.6 seems miraculous.

I ask because there is significant discrepancy between the various displays of mi/kWh and remaining range on the Cyberster. The only reliable way to measure real-world energy consumption is to log the kWh added by your charging sessions, and divide the miles driven by the kWh added after compensating for the kWh remaining in the battery.

17.7 kWh per 100 km, what ever this translates to miles per kWh.
It is the average on the display since I have driven the car for 6 months.
I can do 400 km in real world traffic. So it seems accurate as this converts to 70 kWh.
Keep in mind we do not have cold temperatures and no motorway driving, which would make a huge difference.
If you do long trips on motor ways I guess you better calculate with 20 or more kWh per 100 km.
Maybe sunrisejack can comment, he should have one of the highest milages so far.

Hi, I've got 9,730 km thus far. All good with zero issues. This encompasses all types of driving. Mostly 2 lane country roads so the speeds are quite ideal. Overall the summary is about 16.5 kWh/100km. Using conversion tables this equates to 6.06 km/kWh or 3.77 mi/kWh. On the motorways I drive about 110 kph average. (Lots of radar speed cameras hence the lower average speed) I've gotten so many tickets by mail. (exceeding 120kph I have even have tickets from radar of 121 and 122. (Thats rather annoying!)) It seems like paying a standard road toll! I put the car into "sport" pretty much every drive but just for short bursts, or a series of nice mountain curves. The GT is pretty much driven in "comfort" mode with a light foot. The key of course is daily use at modest speeds. I have some drives at 22 kWh/100km and as low as 11 kWh/100km. Top down 135-145 kph is quite "thirsty". The climate here is such that top down motoring is done with the HVAC turned off. As Cyberthai mentions the climate here is pretty much ideal for efficiency. Also I charge from home and maintain my battery generally between 30-70% SOC. That's sufficient for daily use and considerate of battery health. If I have plans to go longish trips I do charge to higher levels depending on the circumstance. DC fast charging rarely. 70% equates about 347 km, more than sufficient for daily jaunts. My Tesla is also kept generally between 25-75% and that has 49,000 km with very little degradation. I pretty much charge overnight with both cars to replace what I used that day or maybe every other day. Or use my solar system but thats another story. And battery charging practices deserves its own thread. Overall the Cyberster is reasonably good with kWh efficiency. Cheers,
