The charge function could be useful if you had a no diesel zone which is what will be happening in Bristol City Centre . They have not sorted out the finer details yet but they may let hybrids in if they are running on electricity only ...
You could use CHARGE about 10 miles from the city to get you home on electricity . it does charge pretty fast on this charge function . even better if your journey was down a 5 mile hill before home !
