It's a long drive from Orkney to Rugby with a 24kWh battery. I would assume ferry to Aberdeen then stops every hour for quite some time... Can't quite get it out of my head though.
@@JonathanPorterfield I've watched some of the videos including when James and yourself have "raced"!!! I need to go back and do my research but mostly there looks to be plenty of charging stops.
I’ve just received an email from Kia asking me participate in a survey about proposed infotainment upgrades. The survey asks participants how interested they are in certain new/proposed features, and how much they’d be willing to pay: 1) as a one-off fee, and 2) as a monthly sub. The proposed options were: 1) The ability to have a *Mini Games Package* 2) The ability to have *Display Themes* 3) Entertainment Packages. This includes Music/Video streaming. Netflix, Amazon, YT, Paramount+, Apple TV, & Disney+. (Also included TikTok & Webex) 4)A WiFi Hotspot allowing the connection of up to 8 devices. Personally I’d be more than happy to have these upgrades, but I fear that my MY20 Kia E Niro might not get them! I’d love to know more about these upgrades!
@@JonathanPorterfield i did think it was in right hand side last night… as your retiring is the channel going too or are you dropping the eco cars association?
Can't blame you for retiring. I do recommend it. I hope you still do videos though. I would definitely miss them.
I enjoy making videos , so if i feel its interesting enough, ill make one ! Thanks for watching 👍😀
o and there great run about's i have the van in Tenka spec 75K miles and oled displays no bars dropped,

Ive done dozens of drives in 24kWh leaf and eNV200 from Leicestershire to Aberdeen , yes it takes planning and time , but very do-able !

She’ll probably be losing the 12th bar before xmas , nice van which a can be upgraded to a 40 kwh later .
Is your EV buying service continuing after you retire?
Yes Eco cars is now part of Reflex Orkney Ltd
Has it sold yet Jonathan? I have a friend showing an unhealthy interest ...
Not yet , but a previous orkney customer has asked for 1st refusal when i get home ....after a test drive.
@@JonathanPorterfield OK. I'll watch with interest.
Wow, how are the brake pads already worn on an EV with 26k miles? Poor regen on that van?
The regen on all eNV200 is not great , and as it is an ex co wheels car share ev , drivers dont tend to drive like an experienced EV owner 😀
You might want to edit the video as your full address is visible at nearly 11 minutes :)
Dont mind that, its the v5 doc ref number that some could give me problems with
is this a re-post im sure i have seen this video.
Yes , i had to blurr out some v5 details , i dont want to get cloned again 😫
@@JonathanPorterfield i though i was having a ground hogg day 🧠
How come this has been reuploaded?
As ive had to brurr out the v5 ref number , as i didn't want cloning again ! 😑
@@JonathanPorterfield i did think it was in right hand side last night… as your retiring is the channel going too or are you dropping the eco cars association?
@Shaunie2k i still enjoy making videos, and i advise eco cars , but i personally no longer 'trade' evs .
keep it and convert to a camper
I hate camping !
@@JonathanPorterfield fair enough 😂
To be honest, if it was a 40 kWh I would seriously consider this. We are campers and EV owners. A nice eNV camper would go down a treat.
