Negatives – List 3 or more things that you really don’t like about this car?

  • The electronic driving aids are too eager to step in, which can be… interesting…
  • There is little control over ‘setting up’ the car

For the school run and around town trips, I’m not thinking about ‘the next car’.

I just use a ‘granny cable’ on a domestic 13 amp plug to top up the little battery charge I use on a day to day basis.

No idea. I don’t drive enough for the car to make a material difference to my home electricity usage 🙁

 

What public charging networks do you use? Would you recommend them to others and why?
N/A

 

Who do you insure your EV with? Would you recommend them to others and why?
LV – was a good deal at the time. Can I recommend them? I hope I never have to find out…
