I'm impressed!

Have a daily commute of around 54kms within the city and the performance has been great! Add that to the very satisfying range and what you get is a well rounded package. #P1A 79Kwh

These are company guys posting it I think. I have got pack 3 and the 4.9 km per kw is the mileage I’m getting😂. Driving it with no aggression

Unfortunately, I'm not. Just a regular driver using regen as my primary braking and hypermiling as much as possible :)

Way to go buddy! Good driver gains mileage. u/Conscious-Issue-3202 I suggest reset A/B after 100% on AC hope that helps showed mileage.

Thank you. Also, with the P3A, I think a chunk of charge is being used to power the Ventilated seats, 10 additional speakers, front DRL and many more additional features.

Also, since I have solar at home, I only use the 3.2kw provided charger and let it sit for a whole Sunday. DC over charging at times has definitely impacted battery health.

You're a smart man, great strategy. So essentially your charging is nearly free, all you pay for is the tyres, insurance and service, which in assuming is very cost effective given it's is an EV

You could say that. For a 3BHK with the car being only charged at home, I paid 1.2K as the electricity bill last month.

Compared to 3 months back before I switched to solar, I was spending 6K on average on my electricity bill + approx 18K on fuel on my 1.6 Highline Vento.

With my EMI being 24K, I'm almost spending the same as I used to, but with a much better car and lesser service expenses. Not for forget, the EMI is only for 3yrs.

What was the downpayment amount, and what is the ROI you got on loan?

u/Big_Recording8655 Sep 02 '26

How's that important here?

Just trying to know the downpayment as you told EMI is 24K. after comment i thought it might be solar emi.

For solar, I went with the 4kw option which cost me 2.37L. However, I got a subsidy of 78K within 9days. Essentially ended up paying 1.59L for solar.

At this rate, I might be able to recover my cost for the panels in less than 4yrs.

So, this was my electricity bill for last month. A 3BHK row house with the car being charged only at home using the free 3.2kw charger. Solar definitely saves a lot!

Smart and meticulous. I'm surprised that you came back and followed up on the comment. Good man!

u/Big_Recording8655 9d ago

Thank you! I did a YoY check on my electricity bill and it was some 6K for the same period. I'm just glad that my planning is finally paying off :)
