    Cold Weather Regen Reduced

    Is anyone else noticing reduced Regen levels in cold weather, I’m not sure if I noticed this before, but believed Regen was only affected if the battery level was too high that it could actually hold or take in the additional charge?? Looking for some advise on this matter.

    Why pay more for Contactless Charging..

    Question why do we pay a premium for Contactless charging. Surely for me and just thinking outside the box it will be cheaper to adapt to contactless charging that way removing the need to pay software developers build and maintain apps to process payments. Wouldn’t it be more cost effective or...

I charged at a BP Pulse (+100 KWh charging unit) charged of 35 minutes and gained 23.63 KWh of power. 23.63 / 35 minutes = 0.67514286 KWh per minute x 60 = 40.5 KWh...

    Tip to get your most reliable mileage on the day.

    It’s very simple, reset your accumulated mileage total and rest all estimates back to Zero as your range is calculated on your average and as we all know the miles per KWh can easily change subject to weather and outside temperatures; therefore for the best possible starting point reset all...

    Recent BMS update

    I purchased my car in March 20 and have the comfort 2 software added in May, but since then the car hasn’t been back to the dealer for any updates. My first service is due next week and I’m concerned that the new BMS update will still cause me problems, okay my car shouldn’t have any balancing...

    HV Heating and Cooling

    Question for someone...an apologies if it’s a stupid question, but does the car use more HV battery if you have the heating turned up hotter and the fans on at a higher speed. Also does have the cold air use more or less power than heating. The truth of the question is that I never paid to much...
