A long motorway drive sitting in 6th gear isn’t what mpg averages are calculated on either. They’re based on cycles of mixed road and speed driving. Drive round town in stop start traffic and your 2 miles per kWh will drastically improve. You won’t have moved very far but it will have been efficient.I disagree, i could regularly beat the claimed MPG in my BMW, especially on a long motorway run doing the speed limit and not sitting at 50mph hiding behind an HGV for improved wind resistance, apparently thats how i must drive to make my EV's get closer to its claimed range
My 4 is doing 2 miles per kwh and its doesnt really make a difference how i drive
I fully understand all these things and accept them, but i was expecting a bit of a drop off in range, i was not expecting to lose most of it or needing to drive at 20 mph everywhere i go to be able to achieve the claimed range
Some people should not have a licence, driving way too slow is as dangerous as driving way to fast
It feels like you just want to disagree about everything. If you really don’t like the car that much then trade it in and mark it up to a bad experience.
