I and my partner have owned this vehicle from new, we
have looked after it and cared for it, we expected to
keep it for 3 years but we have both found new jobs
(unexpected).
The battery and car have done 4376 miles, it is in
superb condition, the car was serviced recently and the
technician said it is the fastest car he has driven and
has an excellent output (measured using a computer). We
have maintained the battery to perfection, in my
opinion. Our car is fast and nippy; it also has a boost
option to go faster, which is rarely necessary, with a
top speed of 50 miles per hour (on a flat road)
With a new G-wiz or when a new battery is fitted, 40
cycles of charge and discharge are required, during this
time, the range is very limited, approximately, 15 miles
(increasing as you go through the cycles), during this
time you can only use 70% of the range and the boost
should not be used. This takes 2 months, therefore it
requires a certain level of commitment, obviously we
have done this, and it is very necessary for the
battery’s longevity. With our G-wiz the battery is
working at its peak. If you buy a new car from Going
Green you are looking at a 4 month wait plus the
running-in two months, and this is exactly what we did
–it took 6 months! Our car is ready to go now – we have
done all the hardwork!
We live in North Finchley and drive to Great Portland
Street and then North Kensington, the drive is very
pleasant and takes between 45 to 60 minutes (depending
on traffic), this is a 23 mile round trip, it’s a great
cost effective alternative to the Tube/bus. Driving to
central London is made so easy with a car like this.
