Update after 3 months. Now done just over 2500 miles (so looking at around 10,000 miles per year).
The overall fuel consumption since I bought the car is now 43.3. I've had a fair few trips down to Coventry and back. If I stick at 65 on the motorways, I can get around 50mpg. Going at 70 drops it to around 44. I can live with that.
The temperature and mileage since fill up has reset itself once since I installed the Feb update. So, something that still needs to be fixed.
I've cured the USB stick stuttering by turing off the notifications regarding speed cameras. But I generally now use Android Auto for my music and radio plays, so not a big issue. I just need to find a decent AA compatible MP3 player that can actually show my folders as I have them, not as it wants.
I use the seat positioning when the door opens now - it gives me a little bit of room.
Air con works well and doesn't seem to affect the mpg much. Nice!
Now it has a few miles on, I've tried some performance testing - it goes quite well
And I still like it in red.

I own a 2022 Ultimate Hybrid with Tech Pack - in Red (best colour).
Also have two motorcycles. Honda CB1300 and Honda CBF1000 (also red, of course).

This is very intermittent for me. A few months went by without a single reset, then over the last 2 weeks, I had 3 resets. Through observation, I think it’s related to leaving the car for several days between uses. Hoping the ‘early June’ map/software release addresses this.The temperature and mileage since fill up has reset itself once since I installed the Feb update.

I would agree the active lane feature is poor, making the car understeer with a strange light sensation, I had no confidence in the cars handling, now I switch it off once I start the car on, vast improvement and better handling. Apart from this, I love the car, although I've only had it just over two weeks and having driven just over 600 miles. No problems so far.
