Re: PHEV - Electric Consumption

Thanks AlanHo. That device looks interesting but is not what I'm after - I have a properly installed HyperVolt charger.

Hello everyone I am looking forward to the delivery of my new PHEV 3 in Runway Red. I ordered it back in November with a 21 to 23 week lead time. Does anyone know how good Kia's promises on delivery are? Have read various posts on this and US forum, and it seems most are positive. I keep my cars a l...
