Hello there, and thank you for reading
We are looking to replace our two cars with one, and the PHEV comes quite high on the list of possibles. Do you think it would work for us, and if so, what spec?
- Most journeys are <20 miles with the occasional weekend trip up to 60 miles, then a few times a year a few hundred in the UK
- We're in the North East so lots of local charging
- I'm not sure we can sort out a charge point at home, thanks to the tiny 1930s garage and no driveway we've got. We've never stored a car in there, never mind one this big! I think I can charge at municipal parking for free, at least for the time being (if I can get a space!). Does anyone else run one of these without home charging?
- Winter commuting is <5 miles and I need heat, but don't want to use the engine, as that seems to defeat the point. If we haven't got home charging, can I still set the car to heat up without being plugged in?
Thanks so much for your help
