Thanks for the reply. As someone else mentioned, charging speed seems very important for this use case.

Thanks for the advice. I’ve had a play with ABRP and the options are endless! I think we can mak a BEV work, but it’ll be a change of mindset, topping up when doing the stops that you tend to do on long drives, rather than doing a complete fill up once a day. My gut feeling about PHEV is that you get the worst of both worlds, rather than the best of both, still reliant on petrol, but with added weight and bulk of batteries.
We’ve currently got an old Honda Jazz that will be my car after I pass my test later this year, after I’ve been qualified for 12 months they will put me onto the insurance for the company car and we will probably get rid of the Jazz. We will probably get an old second hand BEV that I can use as a commuter if we need it.
Sadly not a good movie, though.
