Just returned form my trip to Bingley, Bradford which is a 216 miles round trip from where I live and a good 65% of the journey is motorway. The journey consisted of normal 'in traffic' conditions and cruising at around 75 mph some of it using Cruise Control.

 

Maxidot recorded  at 49.5 mpg. which ,although I appreciate the accuracy issues looks a pretty satisfactory return.

 

I had a chance to really test the hill hold feature too and was very impressed how easy it was to move from brake to accelerator without the need to use the handbrake and without a hint of rolling backwards, so thanks for those of you who advised on this from my previous post. Things just keep on getting better :love:
