Surprise us! Tell us something surprising about this car?
The charging times are backwards. For example, if you’re on Octopus Go and want it to charge 12:30-4:30 you have to set the times it can’t charge.

 

What car are you interested in next and why?
We’re only 1 year in so have another few years before considering and EVs are changing and being introduced so quickly, it’ll be a different choice by then.

 

What home charging unit do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
We use the 3 pin charger supplied with the car. It’s a bit short but is all we need for the mileage we do.

What home electricity supplier & tariff do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
Octopus Go – yes, it’s a great tariff if you charge a lot. Octopus are a novel company too, they even loaned me a heat camera so I could spot cold areas of my house.

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

Who do you insure your EV with? Would you recommend them to others and why?
Privilege – they’ve been competitively priced.
