Hola Daniel….don’t worry. I own a one and live in Gozo, Malta. Since my purchase last year, I have driven only in electric mode on my island. My choice of this PHEV was that I had the best of both worlds. One, I could also have the range to drive over to Malta via ferry, do some fun things like let my lovely wife spend some money. I only needed the petrol engine to assist on the way back as we have some serious hills to deal with. Second, peace of mind that I had an engine to get me home. This is based on my belief that if I had of bought a Full EV I would never have confidence in the range. My personal research said that over the coming few years, the battery technology will allow for ranges of 500m or 600km (either or) in a car that is priced far lower than the likes of Tesla and Jaguar to name but a few today.
My HS Exclusive car cost me cost me 30,000€ as here in Malta we benefit from a 11,000€ rebate / grant on any electric vehicle purchased. The original price was 41,000€. If there had a been a car that hade a super range and 100% EV then I would have bought that, but there wasn’t.
As to “problems” I only had the camera module fail and the tyre pressure system. Both were fixed under warranty.
Economy in a vehicle is what it is. Price in relation to what you pay for. Buy a 85,000€ stacked Tesla with a 500m range and “Yes” you have an economical fuel use car and no paying for petrol but at what cost.
In conclusion you have a well-priced car that by all counts, excited you to the point that you bought one. At my time of life, I need not concern myself about the resale value which seems to be most relevant to those between 20 to 55years old. As you can see from this fantastic forum, the members love their cars and when you get yours you will become part of the family.
