Wanted to vent and ask others on their thoughts of my every increasing list of things i do not like so far, and its only been a week.
Rant over.
Whats everyones thoughts on theirs and any similar issues to the above? thanks in advance.
- Brakes - they are aweful, now they could be bedding in still. but its almost impossible to come to a perfectly smooth stop. and when you need to do some serious braking, its not up to the job. hoping they are just bedding in though. so perhaps too early to tell.
- Range - I lost 40% charge doing 60 miles? what the flip? Now i know cold and heated seats etc use power, but i antipate to get maybe 220 miles out of a 100% battery, and that would be to 0% charge. thats 100 miles less than the official figure.
- The Cupra App: oh my lord its aweful. doesnt update, if you drag it down to refresh, you have no idea if it has (wheres the last update time and date display). and the remote air-conditioning is buggy as hell. you press to turn something on, or set the heat and you have no idea if its done it, doesnt refresh, doesnt confirm its done anything. you had to keep coming in and out of that screen to see if anything has updated. and the scheduling doesnt work for me, it was crashing every time you tried to change something. latest app update it now doesnt crash, but the on/off button doesnt work properly.
- Charging/usage monitoring: You do not seem to have any screen that will show you a realtime view of regen, power usage etc. my last hybrid you could visualise the flow of power.
- Charging Cost: Only charged it once so far, on a public charger. It cost £48 to go to 83%. cheaper to get a v8 petrol i reckon. shocking public charging prices. and it totally ignored my charge to 100% request too.
- Drivers door: Intermittently it takes me anything up to three attempts to open the door to get out.
- Ignition staying on: Have totally random times where it doesnt turn off when i have walked away, and even when its definately off (i check twice now), having the ignition stay on when you leave the car is mental. Its embarassing to be getting out the car, and the music is still playing like i have left it on. why.....
Rant over.
