That's an old rate pre dating the large energy price increases, rate now is 9p per mile.

Nowhere as cheap as it was when there were plenty of free public chargers and EV tarriffs were 5p kw/h, our council chargers are around 25p kw/h now and Octopus 10p or 12p but as already said you pay higher rates during the day so swings and roundabouts. It used to work out at around 2p per...

Maybe just me but don't get too excited, the Rig started off great then lost the plot, shame as it has a good cast.

It was a good game to watch and Morocco more than competed and played their part. Early goal forced their hand though, I'm not sure we would have seen them attacking so much had the score remainded at 0-0. France just had the quality and good fortune at the right time to win the game.

I never siad it was causing his drastic drop in range, I always said I wouldn't expect anywhere near increase in wh/mile he's experiencing. Just saying that the vast majority of EV drivers notice an increase in consumption in the winter and the reasons for it, or at least in my experience anyway...

You're the exception to the rule if you notice no difference unless you preheat the car while connected to the mains every journey. Wet roads have higher resistance, high wind too, a cold battery has poorer efficiency, and you're using battery to heat the car from below freezing at the moment...

My old Model 3 didn't have a heat pump and it wasn't that much worse than my new one which does has the heat pump to be honest, I would say around 5% overall. I would think with a longer journey you should see much better efficiency as the initial heating does take its toll. Winter weather is...

What type of car do you have out of interest? Does it have a heat pump? My normal for my Model 3 is pretty much exactly the same as you at 270wh/mile, I've never seen it go anywhere near 475wh/mile in the winter and I'm up in Northern Scotland. My winter is around 320wh/mile and I do a lot of...

Royal Yaught Brittania is good to visit but possibly not so much for an 8 year old girl. There are several walking tours including a Harry Potter one. The national museum is very good.

I sold my BMW for a Tesla 3 Performance mainly for financial reasons but have been very happy with it, so much so I'm now on my second one. Wouldn't like to have to go back to an ICE car now.

Because some people get enjoyment from their kitchen and feel it improves their quality of life and are happy to pay for that. I doubt many would choose to pay to have solar panels fitted unless there was a financial benefit, for most the only reason is to save money and folk rightly want to...

We bought a Meaco 20L one form Costco when they were reduced, wish we had bought another as it's amazing the amount of water it collects, you wonder where it comes from.

We run a fleet of HGV's, I would say 75% of our workshop costs for tractor units are due to ever stricter emmisions related components. Adblue systems, DPF's, EGR valves, nox sensors, all prone to problems.
