Is the new PHEV with facelift available in Europe? Still not available in Australia!?!

Ok, I know this has been discussed previously. But I wanted to share my experience and also find out what your experiences are after 15,000.00 kms (14 months). I have not had any issues at all with my PHEV but lately my EV range has fallen down to 45 km after full charge (I was getting 52 kms in...

Hi everyone, So far nobody said anything about this. Yesterday when I hit the start button, ICE kicked in and central display said it was in charge mode even though there was 40 km electric range available (no heating, no A/C, it was 25 degrees outside) I tried to stop it by hitting the charge...

Has anyone taken their PHEV off-road? I am not talking about serious off-road, just dirt roads with some irregular surface. I did it for the first time past weekend and amount of steering column rattling and steering wheel vibration really shocked me. I am just wondering if it is like that in...

If anybody does not like the SSID that comes with PHEV for the remote control app. and want to change it, BEWARE!?! I changed it and it lost connection. Since the remote app gives the option to change the SSID for the wireless network I thought it would only involve selecting “Change SSID” in...

I have seen people talking about how they didn't have to purchase any fuel during first month. So here is mine, did exactly 1000 km (1/5 highway, 4/5 city driving) charged full everytime at home. Fuel tank is still 9/10 full. Still couldn't figure out how to correctly adjust/set/read consumption...

When I test drove PHEV, ICE was inaudible when ICE started in series mode at slow speeds less then 70 km/hr. But more I drive my PHEV (only 600 kms at the moment) ICE is becoming more and more audible especially when more power is needed going uphill or accelerating from stand still. I always...

When I asked the salesman at the time of picking up my PHEV if the drive battery would display typical battery memory phenomenon if it is recharged without completely depleting it, his answer was “no “. He further said that drive battery is divided into some blocks of battery cells and every...

Hi Everyone, I am a new owner from down-under (Sydney) I put this question under a different heading and it didn't pick too much of interest so I am starting a new tread hoping to get some answers from more experienced owners. My impression was that ICE runs at constant speed (1000 RPM) while...
