Thanks Rolfe, I charged the car to 100% and left it until the charger stopped (as you suggested). Drove around, and indeed the consumption returned to normal :) :) :) Thanks for all your help and suggestions.

I only charge the vehicle using a 7KW charger. I charge it whenever the battery charge level is at or around 40% and charge it up to 80% I thought that this method was balance charging the battery.

I agree. They convinced me to test for another couple of weeks. They also told me that I should charge the battery to 100% once a month, and they insisted even though I pointed out that the manual advices to charge up to 80% as much as possible. Probably trying to find a reason why my 5000km...

Yes, it was never on.

Thanks for all your input and feedback. I wish I can nail the cause of the added consumption (or lower efficiency) being experienced.

I'm reaching out for insights or potential solutions to an issue I'm experiencing with my MG4. Initially, the car was performing efficiently at 15.5 kWh/100km (approx. 4 miles/kWh). However, following a fault and subsequent replacement of the AC compressor, I've noticed a significant increase in...

Hi, What is your MG4 consumption like (city driving / Highway)? Mine started at an average of 15.5 kWh/100km local driving and 18.7 kWh/100km on highway averaging 120-130 km/h. Thanks

I charge at home. With my installation, charging costs €0.13/kWh. The public infrastructure is growing and currently charging cost about €0.19/kWh What are the current rates in the UK?

Hi Les, I see some MG4s running around the island. I've had mine for around 6 months now. Although electric car sales in Malta are on the increase, it is still a low overall percentage to ICE cars.

A nice way to shutdown the car would have been to hit the park button three times in quick succession. Saves you going through the menu etc. I hope MG will get the idea and provide the functionality in the next software upgrade.

Took the car to the dealer. They checked it out and told me there is nothing wrong. But if it happens again, then we will do a deeper diagnostics.

This happened to me today. I got both errors. I reset the infotainment and also shutdown the car. Problem still there. Went to the Deaaler and they told me that there is an Update that needs to be done. As I went late and they were closing down, I was told to go again tomorrow. Drove to another...

The ideal way would be to have a simple way of telling the car that you intend to sit in it and there is no need to keep the head lamps on. A simple way would be, for example, to double press the P button. I hope MG thinks of such a simple solution and implements it in the next update.
