Re: Battery loosing charge?

Charging the E to 100% should not be an issue. Having 28kW ish available from 35.3kW suggests actual SOC can only operate between 10-90%. Cars % readout is calibrated 0-100% over 80% of actual battery.

Re: Average energy usage during cold weather

Range is probably better then you think. I believe the battery state indicator to be off set, 100-50% is more capacity than 50-0%.

Re: Average energy usage during cold weather

I also have a kona 64kw and this performs much better than the e.

Drove both honda and kona over 35 miles to drop off one car.

Ambient temp 13°C, honda returned 3.6m/kWh with heating/AC off.
Kona returned 4.3 m/kWh with heating and air con on. Both from cold.
Same trip, identical drives.

Re: Average energy usage during cold weather

The Honda e is as brilliant as it is rubbish. Styling and driving is 2nd to none, efficiency is second to everyone.
The carwow vid was on a warm day and the e still took an early bath.

Re: Worst case scenario range

If you achieve 2.5kWh or greater 70 miles could be done.

Re: At 80% charge what range is yours showing

80% indication dosen't matter as based on last few drives.
Would be better to report miles covered after 80% battery used, along with miles per kWh.

Re: Average energy usage during cold weather

I would expect the Honda to heat to about the same temp as the VW.
Battery will pick up heat in normal operation so why heat to 25C.
For max capacity 20C is about right.

Re: Average energy usage during cold weather

Honda e appears to have poor efficiency.
My mk1 leaf has a resistive heater and returns better miles per kWh.
If the ev-database info is to be believed 3.5 m/kWh average would give 100 mile range
