Good to see charge rate isn't as bad as you thought it was. looks like you are at ~15% charging loss
On a cost basis with 32p a kwh, that puts you at ~48mpg equiv using electric when fuel is at 1.48, Seems good to me, no emissions out side schools etc, and low fuel use around town where a petrol only car of this type won't do well. If you can get yourself on an time of use tariff for cheaper home charging @ 12p/kwh that'd be ~132mpge or ~210mpge @ 7.5p per kwh and of course free in the summer if you have solar.

When you recharge your 18.8 kWh battery overnight, it uses between 19 to 23 units of electricity. This variation can happen because charging isn't perfectly efficient. It's normal to use a bit more electricity than the battery's capacity due to how charging works. If you're worried about using too much electricity, especially with other appliances like your fridge and standby devices, it's good to keep track.
