I'm not sure what capacity is indicated by "13 plate", but if it is the Li edition (not the Li+), you have 3.75kwh, which is the same as the original NiMH version, just with less weight. Their claim of 50-60mi needs a limit of 25-30mph, with few stops and starts. Anything over 40mph and you will use just as much energy per mile as the original, since aerodynamics become a much bigger factor than weight. May I ask what your riding habits are?
