Cheers EvilRacer, in wet weather I now set the drive mode to Eco and so far that has prevented the spinning but of course the acceleration is lower.

Thanks ColinB, I guess the traction control still allows for a bit of skidding when you accelerate too much hence why I assumed it was off or not included. Your explanation about the reduced range makes sense as I mostly use the car for short trips (less than 10mi) in London stop & go traffic + cold & wet conditions. I also read that the larger 18" wheels make it worse. I now only drive with regenerative breaking set to max, hopefully it helps a bit.

Hi there, Happy new owner of a UX 300e. Two questions/annoyances though if anyone can help: 1) traction control: there is a button at the top right of the steering wheel where is says traction control off. I press the button but on the display it just says it is off and I can't seem to get it on when pressing the button once/twice. I have the takumi pack. Does the UX 300e not come with traction control? If so, why bother having that button to the top right of the steering wheel? Given the strong performance it would really help having this as the wheels keep skidding when I accelerate too much. 2) Charge range: brochure says up to 196mi, but when I fully charge it only shows 165mi?? Why is that? Also, even when showing 165mi I never really get 165mi, it's more like 125mi and I don't think I drive aggressively. Thanks!
