Things to know when picking up our Kona Electric

Thanks! We are liking it so far. Dealership stuck to the price, had a full charge and they looked at the lights, but more adjustments are needed. I got flashed about 4 or 5 times while driving home after dark. Honestly there is very little difference in regular headlights vs the high beams on this car.

We took the long way home to avoid the snow on the coquihalla. So we took hwy 1 to cache creek then over to kamloops and through to Kelowna that way.

Yes the hills and highway speeds really kill the range. I was able to follow some cars and have the cruise control on most of the way. We charged to 80% in hope then charged again in cache creek, but only to about 70%. Had we charged to 80% we would have been fine to make it home without turning off the heat.

I was fine with paying for charging as well, but the wife said no... so she got to be cold! I think next time she would just pay for it.

 

I also noticed little difference between the regular headlights and the high beams for the longest time, and I was being flashed regularly. After reading some of the posts here and learning how to adjust the headlights, I did just that. Since then (a few weeks ago) I haven't been flashed at all, and now there's a VERY noticeable difference when I put the high beams on. It seems my headlights (and it sounds like yours) were aimed at a similar level to the high beams. No wonder people kept flashing me!
