Re: Help please, planning charging on a route

Update: So I played around with the various apps and ended up with a decent idea of where I could potentially stop. I started the return leg with 70 miles of range, more than I'd expected (I'd hoped to top up before arriving at the destination but ran out of time) so was reasonably comfortable I'd f...

Re: Help please, planning charging on a route

So started to plan things. First hitch, there is a Shell that looks convenient, but it it looks like you need the Shell recharge app. So I downloaded that, and it transpires you need a fob/card that takes 5 days to arrive and needs activating, which isn't going to happen by tomorrow!

Help please, planning charging on a route

As we have a pod-point at home , so so far I have only charged the Born at home. All good. In a couple of weeks I am going to Lincoln, a round trip of about 300 miles so not possible on one charge. I could take the ICE car but want to go in the Born to get the hang of going electric on longer journe...

Re: Awaiting delivery due to fault

Re: My Cupra app

The app told me my car was unlocked earlier this evening ...when did that happen! Things are looking up! Re mileage, seems to be related to if you have been charging it for me. E.g. Tuesday evening I charged it as I had to go work, wrong mileage shown in the morning (and I agree 1.61 was probably th...
