These Electric Car thingys, part 2 as can’t find original

[Blue Dwr]

Had a plug in hybrid (A3) since mid August.

Plug in because it attracts a much better BIK value than the self-charging version, saving a fortune on tax.

Charge via an standard garden 240v socket, from empty = 5 hours, so ~£2.50.

EV mode gives me ~30 miles max 80mph, goes like sh*t off a shovel. Longer motorway drives gives me ~55mpg at 75mph, similar to my last A4 diesel.

Recommended.

The car you’re driving is probably ~25% more expensive than the combustion version ,my question is , would you save more than the 25% in fuel, extra tyres etc

It seems to me unlikely.

Do you think you'd get better mpg if you stay under the speed limit?

[Blue Dwr]

I'm sure I would. Thank you for the question.
