Slight rush job ferrying my youngest around last night, never thought to look at what range I had left.

This was what I landed home with ?

Good job my OH wasn't in the car or she'd be in therapy today!

What's the EV equivalent of 'on vapour'? On Electrons? On Amps? On AAAs?

Lowest I've had is around 5 miles when driving to a public charger.

I arrived back at home during the winter with 8 miles of range remaining and parked up next to my wife’s car which was charging overnight. I thought nothing of it and planned to plug in the next morning when she left for work. Was somewhat alarmed next day to go to move the car the 10 feet to the right to find I had 0 miles and a slightly panicked car (and driver). Fortunately it played ball enough to make a quick shuffle to the right!

Now that we have two electric cars (just added a KIA EV6 to the "fleet"), I will have to remember NOT to do this!

Photo evidence required for those going for it.

I'm sure some on here have run out.... Does it ever read under 0%...?).

Instead of flat bedding to a charger these charger-equipped tow trucks will be more common.

Nice....not wishing to brag but I managed it with 1 mile to spare as I drove into the garage at home returning from Edinburgh to Aberdeen (126 miles) non stop (school boy error and kept ignoring the PIRM advice not realising the pending situation) - never again!

We have also got an EV6 on the fleet. Great car and sometimes have to fight for the charger....
