Decided today to see how the FL 5 would accelertate uncder full power (pedal to the floor job). Joined a motorway on an uphill slip of about 3/4 miles.
In Eco mode, KERS 1, % power meter went up very quickly and then peaked out at 80%, no more % forthcoming. Thinking this might be an ECO setting thing, next day did the same uphill slip in Comfort, KERS 1 and topped out at 81%.
Following day, Sport and KERS 1, topped out at 82%.
So where's the missing 18-20% gone or is never going to be there?
FWIW, I've also tried the same acceleration on a flat motorway but top speed of 70mph prevents a full; comparison. It does however seem that no more than 82% is available.
Thoughts guys?
