I quickly topped up the battery on the way home yesterday. It was vital. It just took ten minutes, and I could have been gone in five if I had preconditioned first (average 145 KW). Although many may not be concerned about this, it is likely the primary "deficit" of the E-Niro.

Vehicle comparison: I've decided to sell my 21 E-Niro and lease a Skoda Elroq instead. I am quite satisfied with the E-Niro. My first electric vehicle; it bolstered my faith in EVs to an unprecedented degree; now I just cannot fathom reverting to ICE. My '2' spec E-Niro was lacking in conveniences and quickness when it came to charging, so I upgraded because I wanted a new automobile. The Elroq was offered at a steep discount for a three-year lease! less expensive than the EV3. My initial thoughts on the Elroq are that it is an exceptionally pleasant vehicle to use; on these chilly mornings, I am particularly fond of the car's heated steering wheel and seats. I did purchase the Sportsline, but the 'kit' is great overall. The consumption of "fuel" has been the sole source of disappointment. The Elroq has a larger battery, but I'm not experiencing any more range, and I could possibly be seeing a little decrease. In the summer, my E-Niro's typical electricity consumption was about 4.5 to 5.0 miles/KWh, and it consistently achieved 320 miles on a full charge. In the winter, though, it dropped to roughly 4.0 to 4.5 miles/KWh, and on long, cold highway drives, it dropped to 3.5 miles/KWh or lower. With regular winter driving, I have not been able to improve the Elroq's performance to greater than 3.5 thus yet. Okay, so the heavier larger battery won't help, the 20-inch wheels won't either (and they're worse on potholes than the Kia), and I might end up utilising the heated seats and battery pre-conditioner more often than before. In any case, I've come to understand that we ought to be really appreciative of the E-Niro efficiency and the precise range predictor.

What a hardship. If your dealership has denied rebuilding the engine, it is dishonest. At such a low mileage, why was a rebuild necessary? Was it proper to rebuild? The conrods failed, therefore I was wondering if there was a problem that required the rebuild. If Kia knew anything was wrong, they wouldn't have sold an almost new vehicle to another garage instead of a customer. Have you contacted Kia's customer service department to enquire about their perspective?

I will not purchase an electric vehicle until it features a Toyota solid-state battery, and my 1990 analogue meters continue to function flawlessly.

Does 20,000 refer to miles or price?

Auto

I purchased a pre-owned 2019 Kia Stonic 1.0 T-GDi (118 horsepower) 3 ISG. While driving on the interstate at approximately 60 mph, the vehicle occasionally exhibits difficulty in accelerating, even when the throttle is completely engaged, particularly while ascending inclines or across bridges. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

It is always reassuring to receive a clean bill of health. I hope these Insignia Bs do not present numerous issues as they age. My vehicle is now seven years old and has yet to receive an advisory, let alone a failure. I recently conducted a major service using as many Vauxhall components as possible.

Contemplating the feasibility of this concept. And it's already on 100K miles. The rear appears organised, ha ha!

On my F36, the hardwire is connected to the positive terminal of the battery, while the negative is attached to the chassis in the boot. I connect the charger in the driveway once a week for about half a day; otherwise, due to my limited excursions, a new battery lasts just one year.

Ensure the jump point connection is secure.

If the issue arose after you had been driving it, it is plausible that it functioned properly following the component change. Was the ride height satisfactory upon your collection of the vehicle?

The effective functioning of the compressor has uncovered an additional problem. I suspect a malfunction with the solenoid or level sensor on the high side.
