Lastly this time of year use precondition to prepare car on mains power.

I notice that 20 mins pre-warm is equivalent to a mile or two. Makes sense as I get about 2.3 Kw per mile - heater must be 1-2 kw.
and does the range on the dash say 25-26? or just what you've manually worked it out to be?

A electric consumption of 2.3kW/mile means you'll be lucky to get 6 or 7 miles from a full battery? (always forget exact battery capacity but around 12kWh?)


thanks
