    Motorway Driving

    Driving below 60mph on a motorway is a dangerous, IMHO. It causes all sorts of chaotic reactions by other drivers suddenly catching up with you, and having to take avoiding action. Personally, I try and do 65mph, but often speed up to 70mph if there is lots of traffic.

    1 week in

    Just enjoy the car with all of its bells and whistles. Don't worry too much about miles per Kw etc, your journey is short, so efficiency as such is not an issue. Advice is good, but don't get hung up on it. As summer approaches, and temperatures rise, your m/kw will rise significantly anyway...:)

    Tricky Chargers

    Yesterday, in the pouring rain I succeeded in failing to get an Osprey charger to work. The routine seemed fairly straightforward, tap your payment card, choose which connector to use, and hey presto, the connector is locked into the charger, and won't budge...£25 down as they lock that until...

    From Swansea to Northampton, and return , some 400 miles, in my ZS EV Mk 1 80% on motorways and dual carriageways, not the most economical driving. Speed between 65 and 70 mph. With stops and business at the other end, a 12 hour day..:( Recharging Network was great. Leaving home with an 80%...

    The absolute joy that is rapid charging with ZS Mk2 Standard Range!

    Well, I enjoy driving my Mk1 ZS EV. Enough gadgets to use, and as I charge at home, and am retired, it provides very economical driving. And my last but one car was a Mazda RX8, a supercar, but 25p per mile takes some of the smile off your face...:D
