A quick update, I will try and do some more as I find out what it is capable of:
Normal morning commute today - app gives me the following stats:
Duration: 31 minutes
Distance: 26.7 miles
Fuel consumption: 104.4 mpg
Electric consumption: 9.1 kwh
Electric regeneration: 0.9 kwh
I left with a full battery and arrived with 1 or 2 'pips' left on the gauge. I guess it might have done another mile or so.
To put this in full context, I had pre-conditioned the car and had heated seats and steering wheel on the whole way on a low setting. Heated rear screen on a bit as it seems to get misted up quite easily? Air conditioning on also and was listening to music with the windscreen wipers going flat out as it was tipping it down with rain!
There is an average speed check zone for part of the journey at 50mph but the remainder of the journey is almost completely 70mph - I used adaptive cruise for most of it and was between 70-80mph for most of it.
Engine came on twice I think - this was during relatively long uphill sections when the electric motors alone don't have enough power to maintain the speed required.
And for clarity, this was in Pure mode.
Have to say I'm very happy with that indeed!
