Happy New Year all. Vaguely thinking of changing to the above. Can anyone give me the TRUE mileage on PURE Epower only? I read that it is 40miles (by Kia) 38 by some people and as low as 25miles. What is the truth, Both winter and summer. Also I assume it has an EV button that stops the ICE kicking ...

When my auto-hold turns itself off my e-handbrake is NOT applied automatically, hence my comment about keeping your foot ready to stamp on the foot brake. Perhaps this is the difference between the HEV & the BEV? Though I cannot understand why? Kia do do some damn stupid things though ,so nothin...

Welcome to the forum and your new car! PHEV driving is not that much different to driving a pure 'ICE' car. To make it as economical as possible, (which presumably is why you bought it) always use the flappy paddles for MAX REGEN and to slow. This will also make your brake pads last longer. My eNiro...
