Alright bab? Just took my MG4 Trophy down the M6 Toll for a proper balti, but the winter range drop is a right cob on. It’s only 4 degrees! Started with 90% at home in Kings Heath and watched it plummet. By Stafford, I was praying for a working InstaVolt, ended up paying 79p a kWh because the BP Pulse was acting up again. What’s your real-world winter mileage looking like on the A38? Mine usually gets 240 miles, but barely scraping 170 now. Anyone else finding the heat pump struggling, or just my 2023 model? Cheers our kid!

Oh dear, the M6 in winter sounds dreadful, Bob! I wouldn't know about all that motorway rushing. I stick to my country lanes round Norfolk in my Leaf. To be fair, the cold does nip my range a bit when I'm off to the village fair or church, but I just charge at home on Octopus Go. I reckon you MG4 drivers need InstaVolt on the M6 if you're losing that much juice. Do be careful, dear!
