I also have a CX-90 PHEV. My understanding is that it is beneficial to periodically run the gas motor just to circulate oil, and to burn some of your fuel, so you don't end up with stale gasoline in the tank. Do you know if the high-voltage battery charges the 12V system when running in EV mode? I presume that it does because of the configuration of the CX-90 (E-drive before transmission), but I'm not sure how it all works yet ... still a newbie (4 days old!).
@premiumoctane93 I had a similar time with the 120V at zero percent battery. I just purchased a 240v Level 2 EV Charger running on 40A. Are you seeing the charge time consistently around 2-3 hours from 0-100%?
hi, thank you for the cx-90 phev videos. wanted to know how the ownership of this going for you? electric range is doable if you drive everyday and charge overnight? Thank you!
So far charging daily for me has allowed me to all of my in town driving on EV only. It is some what annoying to have to plug the charger in every day but hay I dont have to stop at a gas station so I call that a win :)
I am not using gas at this time, I only drive with Electric, still on my original tank of gas from beginning of June. I will be taking a 2500 mile round trip vacation at the end of July so I will make a video about gas MPG after that.

Yes , a little over two hours from zero to 100 for me with my 220v
Hello, I plugged in the charging unit on the side of the road and it's not responding at all, do you know why?

Is there a way to limit charge to 80%?
How are you doing with MPG in the city/highway/combined? Can you travel the 56 MPGE with one gallon/electric combined?

Hi, does the original charger do level 2 charging if plugged to 240V outlet?
I don’t know on that one, I use my Tesla charger for level 2
