    XPOWER Eco Mode

    Quartic, yes. Very radical design for the time.

    Motorway Driving

    These are the threads the anti-EV people love. Having to compromise on not using HVAC or driving dangerously slow to eke out the mileage. I've always used ECO mode on motorways and not felt held back or slow. When using ACC I find with the Xpower it is smoother on the re-acceleration following...

    This screenshot seems to imply otherwise.

    Tesla Supercharger membership now £8.99p/m or £90 for year

    Don't think that applies to Tesla. If you're referring to the Public Charge Point Regulations 2023.

    Tesla Supercharger membership now £8.99p/m or £90 for year

    Which particular part? M6 is very long. Tesla Superchargers nr Stoke for example are useful.

    Tesla Supercharger membership now £8.99p/m or £90 for year

    There's no guarantee any of these will open to all, for now we'll have to continue planning without these and try to save money with Electroverse etc.

    Tesla Supercharger membership now £8.99p/m or £90 for year

    I guess there's a business decision for them not opening up the Exeter ones for instance. There's a big Gridserve hub there anyway, although more expensive. No Supercharger sites near Brighton at all, nearest is Crawley so Tesla drivers don't have all the best locations.

    Tesla Supercharger membership now £8.99p/m or £90 for year

    Save even more money on your road trips. 42 sites in the UK open to all so far. I've previously used Banbury, Stoke & Manchester Trafford Centre. All good, quick, reliable & much cheaper even without joining monthly/yearly scheme.

    Non-Tesla EV Charging

    Not sure of the confusion here. There are loads of supercharger sites open to all. As others have said if you downland the Tesla app & absent registered a Tesla, the app knows you're non-Tesla HD will show the relevant sites. Add a payment card and off you go. Banbury, Stoke & Manchester...

    One Pedal Driving

    Quite normal. Mine kicked in at about 88% the other day. It's not a big deal IMO as level 3 usually works straight away and I'll use that until next journey. I only use OPD in town anyway personally.

    First 250+ mile trip down south in the MG4 LR

    Definitely download the Tesla app. There's bound to be somewhere en route you can charge (like Banbury). Simply add a payment card and you'll see which Superchargers are open to all EVs. I used Banbury, Stoke & Trafford Centre Manchester last weekend. So much cheaper.

    Real World X Power mi/kWh Thread.

    Yeah cheers m8. Getting texts and emails from insurance and repair companies now and all want the same info repeated. Could have been worse!

    Real World X Power mi/kWh Thread.

    Forgot to reset accumulated total, so all I can add was 1st bit... 223.4 miles covered 54 mph average 3.1 mls/kWh M23, M25, M40 & M6 Took details just after some dozy driver rear-ended me at a set of lights by M6 Jct 15 as I was heading for Tesla Trentham Gardens. No injuries and only a...

    Thanks for the heads-up. I'll take a sandwich!

    Another road trip

    I always go for the Tesla app firstly and then start looking for Gridserve or Instavolt. If I'm out on a road trip, I want speed, value for money & reliability. Hence now recommending Tesla to anyone. Shame nothing North of Manchester for me tomorrow near Lake District. Will be grumbling whilst...

    Another road trip

    Yes I keep mentioning on various forums about checking if there's a Tesla open to all on route to save people money.

    Another road trip

    I've used Banbury & Stoke on last trip (once each way) and no problems. Very easy on the app. Pick an empty stall, plug in, select the stall number on app, press Start Charging. Quick & reliable. No idea why someone was plugged into Osprey in Banbury literally a few car lengths away. Nobody in...

    Another road trip

    Leaving home early tomorrow and heading for Lake District. Planned stops at Tesla Banbury and Tesla Stoke. A quick Gridserve top-up at Burton on Kendal and then back to Manchester and Tesla Trafford. Have re-joined Tesla membership for £10.99 for a month. Will save £9.27 tomorrow alone based on...
