Hello Laurence, 

Welcome to the forum. 

I (think!) I recall something similar towards the tail end of last year. 

Being a cynical old so and so, are we into similar territory to that of manufacturer’s quoted mpg figures - which might (in caps) be achievable under ‘laboratory’ conditions? 

Kind regards,

Gareth. 

Thanks Magnet

I fear this is the case. I’m only getting 10 or 12 miles when a charge that I’m paying for tells me I should be getting high 20’s. 
I will contact Audi when I have a bit more data.

Hi all

Sorry if there is already a thread for this, I did search but couldn’t find anything.

Had my Q5 hybrid for a couple of weeks now and I’m struggling with the range I’m getting from the batteries, especially in EV mode.

Fully charged my car over night on Thursday (12.4kw/hr) when I got in the car the range was stated as 30 miles. As I drove off the drive the range dropped to 24 miles even though I had set the driving mode to hybrid. 
Based on my calculations I’m only going to get about 10 miles from a full charge even though I’m only pootling around town and driving to and from my office (half a mile away).

I’m driving purposely carefully to try and protect my range.

what experiences do others have? Should I be speaking to Audi?

thanks
