Hello from Co Kildare. Awaiting my Techno EV60 - End of Feb beginning of March I've been told so I've been amusing myself by reading the manuals. RTFM

Exciting times await you. Do you have a home charger? What make?

Yes I had a Zappi installed last year. It's actually (the app) very handy for monitoring power usage in the house

Have you got solar? That works well with an EV and Zappi. We often charge for free.

Not yet. I got the house deep retro fitted last year. Solar might be the last piece in the puzzle. Micro generation coming in here soon so might be worth my while between day time charging and exporting surplus.

We decided the off peak rates aren't guaranteed but owning our own solar generation was. So prioritised that.

Hi Das
I picked my Techno up a couple of weeks ago. I saw my first other Megane yesterday. Apparently there are less than 50 registered in Ireland so far due to production limitations.
Great car by BTW😉

One month on (tomorrow, 20th) & I've done 2,300km. Great driving car, currently running at 159 W per km in effectively comfort mode with climate always set to auto.
