I have just had to do a long journey from SW Wales to Harwich, via Bath and back - 700 miles!!
This involved a lot of motorway driving: M4 and M25. Fortunately there were no major hold ups, but the Sat Nav saw minor hold ups (orange) and more serious (red). It did not seem to adjust my ETA or offer any reroute. (My old Skoda Yeti, 10 years ago, once stopped me going northbound round the M25 and sent me south as the M25 was totally blocked in the anti-clockwise direction). Has anyone experience the same or know how to change any settings?
The speed warnings were amazing not only did it get most of them, it warned me 0.4 miles in advanced and/or said if it was a 'average speed' warning. it even showed your average speed until you exited the zone.
I had to use public chargers for the first time in 3 years of EV driving! I didn't want any 'apps' just plugin and pay on my credit card. On a Mer charger it took £45 pre-payment and it came to about £30 pounds - I have not received any refund yet. On the return journey on the M4, I was running low on charge - 50 miles! I stopped at the nearest service station - 2 chargers, one AC and the other DC, but both occupied. I asked the car where was the nearest fast charger - 1.5 miles away! Saved!
