Picked up the car today.

First, something about the dealer, Mazda in Newbury were pretty good to be fair, no issues, they handled the homecharger install for us which Mazda paid for( offer since been withdrawn), which was completed within 10 days of putting a deposit down on the car and 2 days before the car arrived 👍

The car itself is as we expected. There’s a real air of quality to the interior, a really nice place to be. I’m having to learn to drive all over again but the car makes it easy to drive at legal limits. The amount of driver aids is mind boggling! You’d pay a fortune for them on a ‘prestigious‘ mark……
Its by know means what you’d call quick.
Im not going to harp on about the range, we knew what to expect and that’s exactly what we got, 126 miles.
The Mazda app is pants!
Was surprised to hear the fans come on as soon I plugged it in to charge, which I believe is battery cooling, is this to be expected every time, and if not, on a long run,do you have to wait for it to cool before fast charging?
The alarm went off when the wife updated the app.
These are by no means complaints, just part of the ’EV journey’

We like it👍

Interested to know if you've had further problems with your car alarm associated with updating the app. I had an occasion where the app wouldn't let me login. I deleted the app's cache but this didn't help. I ended up uninstalling the app and reinstalling. When I logged in, the car alarm went off - at 1:15am and I documented all the steps I had taken. Dealer (Edwards, Worcestershire) says the alarm didn't go off as their "up-to-date" monitoring software says it didn't! Dealer says next time it happens to video the car alarm going off. This was not the first time the alarm has gone off without the dealer's monitoring software picking it up but each case seems to be different. I'm not happy and I'm considering my next steps.
