<< THIS. My fuelly readings match our car very well, and 80mph and 35mpg sounds about right for your commute. Perhaps you can campaign for a charge point where you work? It would make a big difference. I would also use Eco mode and press the "charge" button on the dual carriageway stretches...

Good to know! :D

Hello, I am about to get a Zappi car charger fitted. Has anyone got one already - any experience with it, and how the Outlander copes with the variable charging rate? Thanks! :)

I think it might do. We hadn't realised how cold an electric vehicle is, until we got one!! Without the increase in battery size, neither the heated rear seats nor the EV only mode would be enough to make me upgrade. I'm really frustrated that every other hybrid 4WD has been a "me too" car...

Mine (MY16) doesn't either. Multiple presses needed to get to B5 - it's one of the little things which irk me.

@SolarBoy - that made me chuckle :lol: If you total it, would you not replace it? ;) Interesting, because I would also swap to a competitor - but for slightly different reasons. If anyone brings out a decent alternative with a better quality interior, and better dealerships (like Honda or...

We've had our MY16 4H for nearly a year now, and I love the car and whole electric experience. Normally we would keep a car for 8-10 years before replacing it. However, despite loving the Outlander, there are a couple of things that would make me fork out extra cash, and get an updated model...

I was talking to the original poster, who on top of their 46 miles per day had said...... I love my Outlander and it fits our family, but perhaps a different EV/PHEV might suit them for less money?

Not wanting to upset the forum members, but with your usage pattern is there a reason you're not looking at pure electric vehicles? They'd be cheaper to buy second hand and every one could do the distances you describe. Understood if you need the space / 4WD that the Outlander offers - there's...

Hello - do you know if it is possible to add a charge point to the existing list in the MMC? It is missing some, and I'd like to add important ones so I can be guided to them when I'm somewhere new. Thanks :)

UPDATE: Well we got the car checked by Mitsu, and there wasn't any problem with the car. Sent the cable back to EV Connectors, who have supplied a replacement as the cable WAS faulty. I cannot complain about the customer service - very nice to deal with and about a week to replace. It's just...

Sorry for my general electrical incompetence, but does that mean it is a cable issue? (Not a car issue?) This seems likely as I've plugged in using the 3 pin plug with brick today and it started charging fine. Very frustrating as the car, charge point and charging cable are all supplied by...

Set your AC going using the timer. It's a really clever feature of the car :)

Has anyone else experienced this? I have a type 2 connector which is our daily way of charging up the PHEV. It has worked intermittently recently, and as I finally got an error message from the car yesterday I have booked it in for dealer to look at. Mostly the charging points don't seem to...

Just to qualify that this does depend upon where you live. ChargeYourCar is £20 per year for the RFID card or free for the phone app. That gets you free parking and free electricity here in the Newcastle area, so is very worthwhile. Looking at the OP's message CYC is not in the Nottingham...
