Dolphin Boost vs 5 Techno 52 kWh
01The cut
5 Techno 52 kWh leads on the figures you would actually use. You would notice UK grant. You would not notice Peak DC charge, Boot and Seats.
A win is counted only where the gap is one you would notice, and only where two independent hosts agree on the figure. One-source numbers still print. Missing figures stay blank. We do not invent a score.
