So about 70k miles in 6 years with only 12miles range whereas my 2014 car has done 50k miles and still gives 20+miles per charge. On the face of it yours looks worse, but:-


1. How long have you had car? The guessometer needs to learn your journey to give a realistic estimate. However, this only applies to a regular pattern, so if you still "playing" with the car driving different trips to get used to it, then you will get varying figures but the last journey greatly influences the range.


2. Are you just looking at the forecast range? Because what is important is how far you can actually travel on a charge, due to the variables above.


3. If you have an Aspire, I assume you are in Australia which has quite a range of operating environments, even at this time of year. Are you using the aircon? That will reduce your range estimate (because it is over pessimistic!) significantly - for me between 5 & 7 miles.  :eek:


A final point is that in Australia the original advertising promised unrealistic capacity performance from the battery when it was launched - this has apparently enabled owners to successfully get replacements unavailable to the rest of us. I don't know when they changed this but a 2015 model might qualify. You will need to do some local digging on that.


Good luck!
