We've just got a new xc40 recharge single motor. Its pretty quick, enough for what we need. Of course if you are a car nut the twin motor is a must have.
We've not done huge amounts of mileage yet but consumption seems to sit around 33kwh with the a/c on auto 20c. Mixed driving. It has 255 width tyres rear and 235 front. Continentals.
Range at 90% claims about 150.
It wouldn't connect to our home wifi so I created a guest network which it connected to. I think its possibly dependant on which encryption type is set.
Enjoying it so far. Only annoying thing is when using spotify it steams it over its in built sim card so if you drive through areas with bad signal it drops out, easily solved by playing it through mobile phone instead of the built in app. It only reads text messages not whatsapp messages, which is odd. My dads 3yr old transit reads out whatsapp!!
