Hi all. We recently took delivery of our new PHEV ( dynamic). Having read the manual and some of the threads on here I would welcome some advice; we bought the PHEV because my wife has a long commute 2 or 3 times a week from near Bristol up to Oxford and we're using a lot of fuel in our other car. . Reading the threads it seems that the best thing to do from a minimising fuel usage point of view would be to drive in EV mode for the 8 or so country/hilly roads until we reach the motorway and then use the ICE for the motorway portion of the drive, then back to EV mode once we leave the motorway for the last 4 or 5 miles of urban driving. Is that right? and when on the motorway is the best fuel economy achieved by using series or parallel hybrid mode? sorry if its dumb question, bit of a newbie to hybrid vehicles!
