Start off driving carefully, calculating 2 miles per % as in 100% = 200 miles. Range drops early then levels off as regen gets better. My experience is that 200 miles is easily doable with a light right foot.Useful. I'm travelling North in August and my overnight on the first night (where there are CCS chargers) is 187 miles away. I'll be at 100% when I take off so should be able to hoof it up there quite comfortably.
I have just carried out an interesting experiment (Well I think it was interesting). A little while ago I charged my Standard Range 5 up to 100%, including a balance charge, and have just run it down as low as I dared. I got to 6% remaining. Since charging I have driven 246 miles using 94% of the charge. The GOM gives me 14 miles remaining. This gives me an estimate of just over 260 miles for the full charge, which I think is pretty good! (especially considering that the WLTP figure is 214 miles!!)This picks up and develops a previous thread that was a good idea but never developed.
To contribute, you will need to reset your consumption display on the first of the month and post a pic of your Accumulated Total dash display on the last day of that month (or as soon thereafter as possible). Anyone that did a reset on 1st April can post now otherwise just remember to reset tomorrow and post at the end of May et seq. This will give a month by month snapshot of real consumption averaged over a variety of circumstances.
It would give some context if you could add to the post some information indicating which driving mode and KERS setting you spent most of your time in. It may also be worth mentioning whether you have a Standard or Long Range but I'm not sure whether this materially affects consumption.
I can raise an identical thread for the ZS if there is a demand.

I'll start by reposting my display from March (SR/Normal Mode/KERS3):

Which route and where did you stop for charging on your trip to Leeds? I ask as I m doing the exact reverse trip in August, Leeds to Southampton and return a week later.That's my first month with the 5LR. It should have another 169 miles on, due to me not understanding how the trip meter worked.
A combination of local driving with a trip to Leeds and back from Southampton, at motorway speeds, thrown in to dog sit. No problems encountered with charging on the trip and overall, I found it more relaxing a journey than previously with my Polo. Ohme charger installed today by Octopus. The engineers earned their pennies today as it heaved down most of the time they were working.
Happy days!
From Southampton I left with a full 100% and stopped at Moto Rugby at the Gridserve chargers. Slightly off course, but worth it for a new motorway services and rapid, rapid chargers. Twenty minutes had the car charged back to 85% which took me to the north side of Leeds with 35% left.Which route and where did you stop for charging on your trip to Leeds?

Thanks @jackois looks like a good plan, I know the Woolpack wellFrom Southampton I left with a full 100% and stopped at Moto Rugby at the Gridserve chargers. Slightly off course, but worth it for a new motorway services and rapid, rapid chargers. Twenty minutes had the car charged back to 85% which took me to the north side of Leeds with 35% left.
For the return, I charged at the Woolpack Inn at Guisley on a 75KW Osprey charger to 85% in 25minutes, before doing the trip in reverse, stopping at Rugby again.
Up trip was Saturday morning and at 11 ish there were plenty of unused chargers, as there were on the way bay about lunchtime. Max speed was 70, weather was nice and traffic not over busy.
Hope this helps.
