It is sustained high speed driving that really attacks the range on ev's . Many times I've wanted car-to-pits radio - " if I reduce my speed can I get home without a pit stop ?"

I have probably dropped 25 mph cruise speed on motorways with my i pace and actually don't get to the destination much later than I would have, but am more relaxed when I do . Except for the " where is the next charger , will it work / be available " stress lol

Has anyone fitted a dash cam to one of these? I like having a dash cam but just thinking that in a car park it could deplete the battery.
The batteries in electric cars are a different paradigm to the car batteries that you're used to.

A dashcam uses about 3W

This car has a battery of 90kWh

Therefore a dashcam could be left on for over 30,000 hours, which is 1,250 days, which is more than 3 years.

It really isn't a problem.
