250 claimed miles is actually nearer 210 real miles. 45 minutes for a 80% charge brings it down to 170 miles. That is not "decent range for a family car".
When we get Skoda Octavia estate size cars, with Skoda Octavia boot space, 400 miles range with guaranteed availability of a 30 minute charge where you need it, I wont consider it. Will all of this be there by 2035? not a reedin hope. Where are heading up sheet creek with out a paddle when it comes to future motoring.
