I think DPF takes about 15 minutes to clear so say 15-20 minutes for engine to get warm and then 15 for DPF, total 35+ minutes I'd say. Ideally on motorway or rural road, no stop start city traffic of course.

Manual says normal operating temp and the regeneration takes about 15 to 20 mins.

It also says:
The car should be driven on A-roads at speeds in excess of 60 km/h (38 mph) for at least 20 minutes between each refuelling.

Anyone know how long a drive it would take to sufficiently charge the battery (or indeed clear out the DPF since I have a diesel)? Many times I’ve wished this car had an engine temperature gauge as there no way of telling (at least I’m not aware of any way ) otherwise.
Standby kicks in after 5 days. If you open up the smartphone app it's shown by an orange banner across the top of the app. You need to get in the car and manually start it to take it out of standby. It cuts down the electrical use of the car to help preserve the battery. During standby you can't easily communicate with the car, to send remote start commands for example.
