David R drives a Vauxhall Mokka Electric 2023.
This is David’s first electric car, he’s owned the Mokka Electric from new and drives under 5,000 miles annually. The current mileage of the car is between 1,000-5,000 miles and he achieves 150 miles from a full charge.
Why did you choose the Vauxhall Mokka Electric?
Sales pitch, a big mistake! The range of 208 miles is a joke. In Summer, the range is 160 which costs £30 a month & the range in winter is 70 miles at a cost of £70 a month.

Range is a joke and the charging speed is a joke. The stupid number of different charging companies and apps is a joke also as well as all the different tariffs. An 8-hour journey is now 16 hours+.

Petrol for me soon.
