Just to recap what I've found regarding energy saving mode. As far as drivetrain is concerned, in eco, normal and sport, the 'energy saving' mode just alters the point at which the 2nd motor cuts in, apart from 'snow' where it won't switch on at all as the car is in constant 4wd mode. Sport is...

I think you’re right, just feather the throttle in energy saving mode and eco with heating on low. Don’t think you can completely disable the front motor. Never mind at least I now understand a bit more about the car and how to get the best range from it.

I’ve just done some trials and ‘energy saving mode’ does appear to be one motor driving but it drops out when you floor it with an alarm that it’s been disabled due to high energy use or something like that, and the second motor kicks in. In sport it drops out fairly easily when you put your...

Doesn’t specifically say it uses only one motor, but it makes sense if it does. Thanks once again. I’ll select it and floor it to see if the front motor shows up on the energy consumption screen, any excuse! ?

Aha, thanks Jonny, this explains everything I missed. ? I’ll have a play, I always wondered what energy saving mode did ??

I’m thinking the same about eco, I’m wondering if there’s something I’m missing. I’d love to be able to turn one motor off for economy on long runs but don’t know how. When I look on the energy consumption screen it does show the car using only the rear motor in eco but it does this for all...

Which setting is ‘rear motor only mode’? Is it eco? Or do I need to do anything else?

Just checked on tusker’s portal and my order’s changed to ‘awaiting final delivery checks’, I’ve also been given a registration number and a registration date of 30th November. Looks like its come on the latest ship, 3 months from ordering to delivery is about right.

I’ve had the same update as Isb777, the car’s ‘Released from factory’ and there’s a VIN ?. Delivery remains as ‘late November’. It’ll probably be on the same boat as yours @lsb777, hopefully get it before Christmas

I received an email from Stonecare asking me to confirm the colour. I assume the car is coming from them.

Hi Isb777, I'd ignore the Jan date until the tusker portal shows 'On order build slot confirmed'. Tusker told me the dates will change (sooner or later) when the order changes from 'awaiting build slot'. Looks like they're building the cars in batches of colours, green being the first batch and...

I’m 50 and chose indie and small car relief, basically the cheapest option

The prices are net not gross, gross would be in the region of £600. Just changed tusker settings to 32% tax (20% income and 12% NI) and these are the figures for blue/white with 15,000 miles pa Xpower £449 Trophy long range £424 Small battery SE £373

They can vary daily but mine’s £397 for 4 years and 15,000 miles/annum. That’s all in including insurance and maintenance with no deposit ? (42% tax payer)

Just had an update from Tusker, 'On order build slot confirmed' and estimated delivery changed from mid November to late November. So it looks like it's coming direct from the factory. Name Ordered Colour Dealer Status Brettus June 22nd Volcano Orange Acorn Crewe Late Sept! Seamust1000...
