Battery seems to only be giving 30km of pure electric, but that’s in this really cold weather, with heat, seats and wipers on.

I haven’t driven it in anger yet, and with the 5k distance restriction here for the next few weeks, seems it will be a while till I do.

Overall, very happy though. Had a last minute thought that I should have went for the 545e though, but I think the 530e should be more than adequate at the same time.
Not in anger but a couple of times when I was on a country road with a 65 mph speed limit behind a guy pulling a trailer and they had a passing lane in a sharp uphill area I hit the accelerator to pass him and without saying everything, this thing can be fast and it will still feel like you are going 60.
