Highly recommend if you want something different to the standard Tesla's.
Very sensible advice, there are far too many people taking extreme positions on electric car threads. Although your name does suggest you are quite invested in the brand!
I woke up crazily early for the start of a 12 hr shift. Getting up 10 minutes earlier to get petrol (or get home 10 mins later last night to get petrol) wasn't an option. It was freezing outside so I didnt to be stood outside in the cold as my car defrosted. I also didn't dare leave my car engine running without me being there due to legality and insurance concerns. So instead I pressed a button on my phone. It defrosted whilst I had a cuppa. When I finished my tea I set off for work. My road is quiet so luckily no loud engine noise. I'm also able to turn off the reversing bongs on the car so it was almost silent so didnt wake up people. I got into my de-iced, lovely warm car with warm seats and steering wheel. I had already sent the address where I was going to the car when I was inside. This is convenience. I forgot to say I spent aboit 5 seconds unplugging my cable and started with 100% charge. I drive 10 miles away, so the 20 miles round trip would be OK with my 280 mile range ev. Having said that, regen braking gave me about 30% back so only usef around 14 miles of energy for the round trip.
The sat nav showed no big issues or diversions but had there been one then it would have shown alternative routes. Was so easy to drive. My left foot was resting as no clutch. My right foot simply went up and down rather than going between the accelerator and brake and this was due to one pedal driving. Also my left hand wasn't constantly changing gears. In fact I utilised adaptive cruise control so my right foot was hardly used too. The lane control even helped me steer. The only time I took control was at junctions and traffic lights.
Drove past a school that were there early due to a school trip. Traffic was crazy so I was almost stood still. What surprised me was the amount of emissions from the parents cars and the coach and this was blowing over the kids. I saw some kids coughing as it happened. But alsp remembered reading about emissions and poor brain development in children. Eventually I was on the dual carriageway. Cruise ocntroll set and wow it was effortless. At one point some bad driver started to move into my lane without looking. But no issues as I hit the accelerator and quickly got safely in front of them. My automatic wipers sensed the rain and the auto main beam worked a treat. Also Nice to think that every slow down I didn't use my brakes and in fact got energy back. Win win.
Got to work feeling refreshed and calm. Then 12 hrs later the same trip back. Again no dancing my hands and feet around the cabin to brake, use clutch and change gears... just easy. I did stop off to see friends but still way more range than I needed. On the trip back I saw a 8 pump pwtrpl station which was full and with aboit 6 people waiting. So much so they were stopping traffic on the main road. Anyway I got home and plugged in the car. Took me about 5 seconds. Normally I wouldn't charge every night but knew I was having a long trip the next day and needed 100%. The cheap tarrif didn't start for another 2 hrs. But the charger knew this and it saved me going back out to turn it on. Again autimativsand so convenient. Similarly it knew when to turn it off at 1.30am so I just slept as normal. I also used the off peak tariff to use the dishwasher and washing machine so this saved me money too.
Woke up the next morning to drive to the airport. 2 weeks hols. I knew even with the long range of the ev, that I would still need a tiny charge ans decided to top it up a little before the airport so I was even easier when I return. Once again,in the morning I defrosted the car, heated the seats and steering wheel. Chucked the cases in the car and was on my way. Stopped off for about 6 mins. Stepped outside the car to stretch my legs. Got to the airport parking and done. Again no stress. I did remember to set valet mode to stop anyone being an idiot. I handed the keys over and enjoyed the hols. Upon my return I saw I didn't even lose 1% preheated the car whilst I waited for luggage. Drove home feeling tired but the actual drive was easy. Got home with more range than I needed. But I deliberately charged for the whopping 6 mins to ensure it was OK should I get diverted.
To be transparent. Yes the ice car would have saved me that 6 mins in charging but I still would have had a break for that time. So nothing gained. In fact I'd have had to set off aboit 8 to 10 mins early to ensure full petrol tank. So the ev was actually quicker. Cost wise, that trip would have cost nearly £60 in a petrpl car vs about 12 for the ev which was based on both home and public charging
They both need to find another way to steal from me....hahaha. cmon UK Plc. Catch up with time.
Seems a very good deal if that's your thing?
Carwow recommended it over the Audi Q4 and Volvo C40.
