General Chat / Tucson PHEV
« Last post by Brian Barker on April 26, 2023, 15:58:40 »
I am currently running a Hyundai Tucson Hybrid Ultimate vehicle.

I would appreciate the answer to a couple of questions so that I can fully understand the best method of running the vehicle to its optimum economy.

I understand the vehicle is self-charging to a degree, however I was also told that I must plug the vehicle in to charge it on a regular basis to keep the batteries topped up.

I charged the battery to approximately 50% and used the vehicle around our local town, which is a 14-mile round trip journey from our home, (rural roads) plus around the town at low speeds. The battery level was down to 0% again by the time I returned home.

I also ran my vehicle for approximately 4 days, with the vehicle telling me that the batteries levels were at 0%, however the electric operation was still functioning at low speeds and giving us exceptional economy, why is this?

In order for me to charge my vehicle at home, I used the 3-pin plug but I need a longer length cable due to our location.  Therefore, I’m considering a Granny cable.  I appreciate charging this way takes longer but that is not an issue as it can be done over night.  Due to the aforementioned, is it a financially viable exercise to purchase a Granny cable – or, indeed, simply a longer 3-pin charging cable, for what I may save by charging at home?

Can any Knowledgable person advise please?

Hi. You've no doubt used the same websites I just did to see that plate is attached to a Hyundai Matrix 1.5 diesel GSI-CRTD and is currently off road (SORN).  Not sure how much further you could go to trace where your moggy is, except by a request to the DVLA. Interesting mission you're on though :).

General Chat / Registration Number OCT 554

I'm looking for the owner of a Hyundai with the above personalised plate. Wonder if they are on here, or if anyone knows of them. Reason is that this is the plate from my first car (1959 Morris Minor) I understand that when the plate was transferred off the Minor, it must have had an MOT, which would then have been issued with a new non-dating and non-transferable registration number. Theoretically, my old Moggy could still be on the road with this number. I'd love to know what became of it. Maybe it could be traced back via the dealer who sold the number. Any assistance gratefully received!

Hi,
The Kona 1.0t is a 3 cylinder engine and lacks power regardless of drive mode (120bhp) the 0-60 time is 12 seconds !!!. They do a 1.6t which is a much quicker car but more expensive it really depends on what you use the car for ?
