Default XC90 Recharge T8. Plugging in or charging whilst Driving in
Hello,

Sorry if this has been asked before and if so could someone point me in the right direction.

I have a 2024 XC90 Recharge T8 but unfortunately I live in an apartment with no Home charging facilities. At the moment I'm using public chargers but these seem a rip off. I have taken to driving in B mode to charge my battery however my mpg plummets when I do this. Has anyone any ideas of which is the most economical whether using a charge point or charging whilst driving?

Cheers Richard

There is only one economical way of charging it and that is at home Unfortunately.. Yes the public ones certainly are a rip off !
