We've had the car a couple of weeks now and after 300 miles we're getting 3.2 mi/kWh. How does this compare, what are others getting recently in the colder UK weather?

We have the 52kWh 170PS model version with car settings: air con on auto 21 degrees, driving in ECO mode with occasional seat and steering wheel warming on. Mix of motorway and shorter journeys.

To get your mi/kWh reading, from the info-system menu select "Vehicle" and then select "Data".

I’m getting 3.2 after approx 480 miles - mainly commuting 10 miles a day. Occasionally steering wheel or seat heating. No climate on.

With cabin temp set at 18, and we never use heated seats etc, lots of ‘B’ mode given around town, we are getting 3.7 miles per kw over 1000 miles from the entry level Life. The exact same setup, journeys and similar ‘mature’ driving approach, we get 3.3 miles per kw from the entry level Style.

We attribute the difference to all the extra tech on the style such as 360 sensors which appear to work 24*7.

I did ask ‘ID’, but she said ….”please wait “……..and I am.
😉

However, at peak cold this winter, mileage dropped to 3.0 miles per kw in both. Max defrost use is a killer, but needs must. By contrast, we shouldn’t forget that most ICE drivers had to run their cars for a few minutes just to remove the same frost so not really any disadvantage - which of course was consumption without miles.

Based on last 20 months and 18,000 miles, 4.0 in summer and 3.0 in winter - average of 3.6m/kWh.

Long term m/KWh since software update a few weeks ago is 3.9. Seems pretty good to me for a big beast of a car. Mind you, in winter that’s a different story.

I’ve only done about 2k so far, mainly country roads or town driving. It was 3.2, in the colder months. But has increased to 3.5 currently. I suspect it will go a bit higher too.
There seems to be a lot of variety from other posts here. Down to driving style, road type, and loading, I suppose?
