Re: Warmer weather efficiancy

You don't get 4.9 miles per kWh sat at 70mph, not even at temps as high as 28C, looks like a 60mph run for the given 14C to me. 4.0 miles per kWh in the height of Summer at a constant 70mph and a smidge of Aircon under recirculation is as good as it gets for motorway driving. correct i had to defro...

Re: Intelligent Octopus

i think the trend is downwards as wholesale prices fall, there may be a correction in july when cap ends pushing the prices up slightly but wont be much. the 80p was due to gas prices, the great thing about octopus is that you can switch products.

Re: Voice control issues

I think it's set way too sensitive as I can activate with a whisper. The trigger word needs improving as any words after some silence seems to trigger it.

Re: For octopus customers

Hi Albert, did you have any luck getting Intelligent Octopus to work with your Id3? I assume that you have both a smart meter and an Ohme charger? Fergus Mine is working fine with hypervolt charger which isn't supported yet. Request via octopus app as above instructions and should be fine. I do hav...

Re: Range

What type of speed were you traveling? I've just completed 2 round trips to Birmingham from bristol.yesterdays was 180 mile round trip and I had 30% battery left over. There seems to be a huge difference in economy traveling at 60mph than at 70mph
Are you on the 58Kw battery?

Re: For octopus customers

So just got back home on 15% battery and need to leave at 6 am tomorrow. Octopus mapped out a charging schedule as soon as I got home 20 mins ago. All 9f the schedule is at 10p rate as mapped. Fantastic product.

Re: How to play CDs

As a BTW question, can my passengers watch a movie on the infotainment screen from a USB whilst I'm driving and if so, how do you select the media file from Infotainment screen? Do these files have to be a specific format type or would standard MP4 work? Mp4s work fine but it only plays video when ...

Re: How to play CDs

I was thinking of using a portable CD player with Bluetooth maybe. if you have a computer with cd/dvd drive you can easily rip them in media player (not sure what apple equivalent would be) copy to a usb pen drive and much better way of playing. i have a 1TB usb hard drive with music and films/tv s...

Re: U.K. configurator now showing Business, Style and Tour

you can buy a top spec mg4 for nearly 7 grand less than id3s new cheapest spec, im struggling to see where VW are going with this. for me VW need to look at a id3/golf size electric car for around £28k, pushing prices up by 5k or more is just going to cause customers to look elsewhere.
