Re: Niro or not to niro?
Self-charging hybrids generally cosset their batteries, rarely charging above 85% and letting them fall below 15%. There are many early model 10 year old + Toyota Priuses knocking about still on their original battery so it's no concern to me. S-C Hybrids generally run on their engine mainly, helped...

Re: Niro dead when going to unlock it.
Yes, but only once to date. Same as you, but memory wasn't wiped so perhaps my 12v battery wasn't totally dead. Once I set off driving, the car warned me that the tailgate wasn't fully closed, so I put it down to the interior light being on overnight. Mind you, surprised a little LED light could dra...

Re: Late 21 HEV

Can't help wondering, you do know you're not getting a fully electric car?
