C350e anyone considering one?

[derekthetree]

Does anyone know what the driving range is of the 350e with a full tank and battery?

I know the answer will vary depending on driving style, driving mode, and how often the battery is recharged (home/work etc); but say I was driving from London to Edinburgh with no stop offs, how far would I get on 1 full tank and charge?

Its a 50l tank I think. I just filled up with 45l and got 356miles with a couple of 75% charges in there. Only just run in though.

I've been looking at getting either a Passat GTE or MB 350E and at the moment I'm swaying more towards the MB as car is available through Lex. There isn't any listing for the Passat GTE and I've searched for UK release dates to no avail, am I missing something. Has the Passat GTE been released?

Release date I believe was September 2016. It's not on our fleet list either which is also through Lex

Does anyone find the drivers foot rest very small? I have large feet (size 12) but couldn't get my foot to fit on the rest.

I have not found the right foot one yet, I'll have to take a closer look! The left foot rest is quite large, but not very useful...

Mine is in the garage while they try to work out what's wrong. 6 weeks, 2k miles and it won't charge up any more. Still fully driveable but not very fuel efficient!!

I have a loan 65plate C220d prem plus until it's fixed, can't believe how much less refined and slower it feels than my C350e!!

You should probably expect a few teething troubles as its new technology but at least Mercedes step up with replacement cars whilst they're investigating / fixing it!

Its true, I have a C200d in for repairs and the 220d is so noisy in comparison.

Ok its quicker but the noise. The Peugoet 1.6 engine is really refined in comparison.

[Savaloy]

I'll post some pictures but delivery delayed to Monday as they couldn't pull their fingers out and get it to me Friday - Bang goes my weekend of testing!

Pictures will follow next week

Okay, that's it. Another victim bites the dust. Signed my order today for the 350e Sport Estate in Hyacinth Red with a good measure of Bells and Whistles and a promised delivery on 7th April. I blame all you enthusiasts who seem to think it's the bee's knees. I'm sure you're right but it's going to be a long three months' wait to find out.....!

That's not a bad delivery time. Mine ordered end Nov being told May delivery.. I'm sure it will be worth it. Had a 300h demo which I loved, 350e will be even better!

3 months sounds incredibly optimistic, however fingers crossed for you that it's delivered on time!

Well, it did turn out to be a bit optimistic on account of the colour. I want to have it for a few weeks before setting off on a "grand tour" in France and Italy in late May/early June but to get my colour I would have had to wait until early May. As there is almost certain to be some delay, I thought that did not give me enough time for learning and shake-down.

So I changed the colour to "designo diamond white" and am promised the beast on 7 April with "16" plates. The dealer had already ordered the C350e as stock without a customer and I got lucky that I was the first to get my grubbers on it!

That's the technique I used for mine - I managed to get the car in about 12 - 13 weeks which wasn't too bad!

Recently took delivery of mine. Prem plus in Cavansite blue. NHS Fleet Solutions
updated me every fortnight via automated email and were spot on. Ordered May and took delivery as planned mid December. Very helpful once we got close to delivery providing me with details of options freeze dates and shipping etc. as provided to many others on here.

Oooo almost identical order to me, same colour etc.

I ordered via the NHS Fleet in July/Aug and expecting "Early March" at present.

When did they start giving you more info etc?
