new record of 937 MPG

HI, I'm a new PHEV owner. Did a mixed drive (town traffic/highway) on pure EV mode and the MPG just kept going up and up and up! Ended up on 562 MPG - it refused to go higher so maybe that's the upper limit on the counter. Either that or the car is faulty :) Has anyone ever hit these levels?

Hi everyone, Hope this finds you well. Just wondered if anyone can recommend cleaning products and cloths for the HS. Would like to avoid the kind of smears/smudges in the photos (attached). This happened after using non-scented wipes on the aluminium effect parts and the lether sills. Thanks

Hi again. Was looking at a 22 plate (2022) and it had 2 usb ports. The dealer said it was one of the last runs with a full radio. Does anyone know if 22 plate or earlier have the full functionality (presets, TA etc).? Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much. This is a great insight and has convinced me to go for the PHEV :)

How much money would you say it saves you on fuel per month

Thanks. What do you mean by better - quicker, more comfortable, or both?

Thanks for the many helpful replies. I have narrowed things down and the final choice is between: Standard Petrol PHEV for £100 more per month via PCP Question - will the PHEV save me £100 or more per month? I do a lot of mixed driving (roughly 15,000 miles per year).

thanks for the response

Does anyone know if FM/AM radio (not DAB) work normally on the pre-facelift HS?

Thank you both

Hi, I know about the DAB radio issue, which is not ideal, but not a deal-breaker. The gearbox speed drop around 50 is manageable if not on pure EV mode. I've also test driven a PHEV and seen that for myself. My concerns are anything else safety related. I've read on this forum about reversing...

Hi everyone, I have ordered a 23 plate HS PHEV, but not taken delivery. When reading other threads here I came across problems such as reversing on hill starts, radar issues etc. Please can anyone advise on common problems, particularly safety related, and if they were fixed in the facelift...

Does it let you have presets? :)

Hi all. I've ordered a 23 plate HS, but not taken delivery yet. Would really appreciate if someone can post photos of the windscreen wires, trailing leads etc. so I can know what to look out for.

I would have gone for thsi too, but I want the sunroof :)

I'd like to know how pronounced the lag is. Does it make it unusable. I'm currently renting a post-facelift 2024 HS and the infotainment is ok.

That's good to know. The MPG in EV mode around town is the main reason I wanted the PHEV.

Thanks for your feedback. I'm not fussed about DAB, but will now check if the car I've ordered has two usb ports :)

That was my thinking when I chose it! Then I had doubts after reading reviews. Thanks for your feedback.
