Real world range

[TallPaul]

Hello how are owners of the premium urban finding real world driving range and efficiency. Seriously thinking of buying as a second car. Is the software finally sorted now, any niggles.
Thanks

It's all empirical evidence of course but yesterday's trip is a typical journey from one town to another: mostly motorway + A roads + am very little urban driving and parking in a multi-storey carpark then stopping for a dog walk just off the motorway on the way back at a park then home.

Return trip in my Urban Comfort 43 kWh:

35 miles at 4.3 mi/kWh
Ambient temp between 10 and 8C
Normal mode + HVAC set to AUTO and 20-21C + Adaptive regen
Motorway cruising at 60-65 mph using cruise control
A roads between 50 and 60 mph
The cabin heated up very quickly

Today's round trip in the Surrey hills.
All done in ECO, take 20 or so minutes off the accumulated time as that includes rapid charging while getting a coffee.

HVAC on and set to 20-21C
Ambient temp around 15-17C

mostly A and B roads, a bit of town and a brief stretch of motorway

Today's round trip in Berkshire.
Mostly A roads and motorway, a fair bit of B roads and very little town. Half of it in Normal mode, the other half in Eco.
40% charge used from 76% to 36%

for the kind of driving i do, and maybe because I'm a reasonably experienced EV driver who drives economically even when keeping up with most of the traffic, this car is good for 200+ miles on a single charge.
