matthew, 19 days ago One thing I noticed on the VW ID.3: The power consumption is quoted in “kWh/h” (kilowatt-hours per hour), which offends my scientific brain. It’s just kilowatts, surely?

yatil, 19 days ago @matthew On Volkswagen.co.uk it seems to be quoted as “14.9kWh/62 miles”, the relation to a distance makes sense and is usually what you see with electric cars.

matthew, 19 days ago @yatil That’s fine, when they’re talking about power usage over distance. But that “kWh/h” figure was the instantaneous power usage, which I’d expect to be measured in kW.

yatil, 19 days ago @matthew Yes, that’s basically horse power, and I have never seen that referred in kWh/h but only in kW? Weird!
