Anyone buy a 272 phev ?

Today's stats, a LOT of b-roads in mountain plus high speed motorway.
6hrs driving, battery from 100% to 23%, I asked the charge to stay there, not deplete. Very decent consumption.

That seems very good returns.
Thanks

Friday drove back from Lincolnshire after a few days away. First 50 miles with setting to save the battery and last part using battery in hybrid mode.

So after ..popular demand, I depleted the battery today from 80% to 1%. I didn't notice tbh, otherwise I wouldn't have left it to drop that much, I will try not to do it ever again.

Long story short, a trip consisted of 2 legs in both directions, with 15 km of motorway and 60 km of b-road plus city streets. EV for most of the time, it covered about 100km with electric only. Super quiet. Charging now, hopefully w very long trip awaits for me tomorrow, charging to 100%, needs 9hrs.

Hi. Toyota RAV4 PHEV keeps battery charged at 20-30% even when it says EV range is 0km. That's kept for the operation of hybrid mode. So maybe Terramar does the same if it can drive in hybrid mode even with zero EV range. Thus no need to be worried about depleting the battery to 1%. In RAV4 it never is, for example. With RAV4 the same goes for upper limit. When fully charged, actually it is charged to about 85% of battery max capacity, but user sees 100%. In my mind this is right, engineers thought about these things so end-users don't have to overthink. But, again, it needs to be checked how VAG/Seat/Cupra does things.
