    MG4 trickle charging

    The app is showing 1.4kW today with the car locked. Not the best, not the worst, but I’ll take it

    MG4 trickle charging

    Sounds like it's low indeed. I'm pretty convinced there's something wrong with the car as it's not just trickle charging. That's probably the most pressing one to me as I do it everyday, but even if I go to DC charging stations, I never get the full input. For example 25kW charger, I get 20kW...

    MG4 trickle charging

    I've always gotten different readings on the app. For example if the car screen displays 1kWh, the app instead would show 1.3kWh at the same time - that is with me in the car, car obviously unlocked etc. Now that the car is locked I just checked the app and it shows 1.3kWh. Is that normal?

    MG4 trickle charging

    I don’t think it would be NZ regulation as a mate of mine owns a Kia EV6 and his granny charger is rated at 10A - with his cable I was able to get 1.3kWh by the way. In any case here are some other photos, of my car setup (it’s currently max current and intelligent battery heating off) and the...

    MG4 trickle charging

    That's right. They also tested both cars on a wall charger they had at their showroom and they got similar input, somewhere around 4.8kWh. I mean the MG service fella was nice and all but I'm not too sure he knew much about this subject, since he pretty much told me all MG4 would have the same...

    MG4 trickle charging

    Would you know if the battery heater is turned on by default? I don’t think I ever changed that. But also I’m in New Zealand and we’re in summer here, not sure if the car would be preheating the battery anyway? That said, a mate of mine lent me his Kia EV6 granny charger (10A) and I remember...

    MG4 trickle charging

    Correct it’s onto your usual wall socket. However, I’m using the cable provided by MG. Perhaps it suck? It says “Rated current: 8a” i’ll try to attach a photo

    MG4 trickle charging

    It says maximum current on the charging screen - I’m guessing this is the highest setting?

    MG4 trickle charging

    Hi all, Has anyone been able to get more than 1kW when using the granny charger? I’ve tested multiple different power outlets and couldn’t get more than that. Convinced there was something wrong, I took the car to the dealer and they tested my car against another brand new MG4 and that also...
