Is this what we'll be looking at...and nowhere near the 57 (I think) that is advertised.
Any tweaks/setting changes anyone can recommend before we have a play?
TIA.

Where did you see 57 quoted, all the specification on the Volvo site say max 28, the XC60 and Xc90 with the 3 layer battery are supposed to get into the 40's but unfortunately not the XC40.
When it's warm like now, we get 25 on Pure and 20 to 22 on Hybrid. In winter it was 18 to 20 on Pure on out T5 Recharge PHEV. Then on a 160 mile each way run it returns 60 odd on the way up using all the battery then 42 on the way down in Polestar mode with no battery. I don't think that's bad.
It works perfectly for us, obvious I would love 40 moles range but sadly not on the XC40.
Could you have seem Kilometers instead of miles.
