I have driven 409 km at the moment and no big problems have occured. The weather has been mostly rainy with temperatures around 5 celcius. The 300W heater for the windshield has also been good enough so far, but I am starting to get the feeling that it might be underrated on sub zero temperatures.
When I changed the winter tires I noticed that one front brake made quite a lot of unnecessary friction. I removed the brake pads and cleaned them and their surroundings. As a result both front wheels felt similar to rotate. This brake fix had a very positive effect on driving. The battery current reduced approximately 15A at 60km/h and now also the fourth gear seems to be useable! This increased the useable speed range up to 80km/h on even road. With a low powered vehicle such as this one it is truly advantageous to minimize all losses possible.
