Speed
Speed is the most impacting factor on the range. Use preferably electric mode at low speed. To optimise your fuel consumption in hybrid mode, charge your battery and benefit of electric energy (more than 35% in road drive average conditions). 
Driving style
Every time you accelerate, you lose energy. And everytime you brake harsh, you need to accelerate again. Smooth accelerations and recuperative braking of your Grandland Plug-in Hybrid can help you to save up to 15% of your electric range.
