    Sportsitalia…the end

    Joining the electric car club

    4m/kWh is very good for such a big car. I've averaged 3.5m/kWh in my AWD Kia EV6 in the 2 years I've had it. It does a mix of mostly motorway, with some A-road and urban. Unfortunately I don't have a cheap night-time tariff but it is still a bit cheaper to run than the Maserati. :)
