Hi all
Has anyone noticed if it has much of a detrimental effect on EV range if the car is in Sports mode?
I'm in a 2025 HS PHEV Trophy 24.7 kWh and it's in Normal mode and I'm getting around 65-70 in EV only mode.
Is it much worse having it on Sports mode as it seems far more responsive in that mode but wondering if the range suffers accordingly?
Many thanks.
 
Hi Tony,

I've had the same model for just under 1 month.
I haven't done many miles but sport mode doesn't seem to drastically affect the range?
Try the highest level of battery regeneration coupled with sport mode.
 
I have noticed you can get better mpg in normal mode. I like sport mode on country roads but for normal driving normal gets much better mpg. In sport the throttle is very sensitive to foot movement. I expect in eco mode you could get great mpg but I never use that.

Many thanks for that reply 👍
