Honestly, it was ridiculously cheap.

 

Positives – List 3 or more reasons why you love this car?
It’s cheap to run, easy to use and fun actually.

 

Negatives – List 3 or more things that you really don’t like about this car?
I do wish it could rapid charge, I wish it would go a little further and using the heater really uses up a lot of range.

 

Surprise us! Tell us something surprising about this car?
How quick it feels even for a older van.

 

What EV are you interested in next and why?
I’d love a Tesla, however anything that can fit our large family and tow would be great.

 

What home charging unit do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
Because the Kangoo is limited to 3.6kW charging, I make do with a 3-pin plug at the moment and it works for my daily commute (25 miles) just fine.

 

What home electricity supplier & tariff do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
I actually don’t know.

 

What public charging networks do you use? Would you recommend them to others and why?
Haven’t used one yet.

AXA van insurance, they were cheapest.
