I have been apolitical when it comes to cars, I can even separate 'that man' from the actual Tesla cars and SAIC cars from political governance but this news will make it extremely hard to consider MG or by extension probably any Chinese car in future. Unfortunately it is impossible to separate...

The MG5 may not have supercar performance but it's no slouch at just over 7 seconds 0-62mph, comparable with something like a Mk5 Golf GTI, but without the handling to go with it, and handling matters when cornering.

For anyone that likes quirky facts a piece here on the western end of the A55 in north Wales.

If you were going to be away that day and following night could you, if necessary, dump some of your battery into the car prior to leaving as you could recoup that quite easily through non-usage at home ?

I'm guessing same for anything app controlled or updateable OTA.

I was in Agadir, Morocco in October and saw 2 chargers outside a hotel. They looked to be guarded by staff as both times I passed there was a staff member hovering around them, so I suspect no ICEing there! Looking on Google maps there are some around but not many and not sure I'd fancy going...

Batteries are proving to be more resilient in the real world than lab testing predicted. Charge as you want when you want it will make little to no difference.

I'm curious @Archev as 'alcohol' is a carrier of flavour or taste of the things it is mixed with. Pure ethanol of course does have a taste, but at 4 or 5 percent or thereabouts, say in beer taste is more about, the barley and hops. An alcopop tastes of nothing other than the pop and wines all...

I think we can all agree on that, but forecasting the future has always been a tricky task. I don't think there are any apps that can do better than us ourselves as we get to know our car.

A new addition to the club Welcome and enjoy.

I see you are fairly new on here, and maybe new to EVs ?? If so You are enjoying the initial phase of ownership, looking into every detail and wanting to research everything. That's great. What you will come to find out after all the fun is that you don't need to know anything at all. It's just...

But how do you know it's better ? Which does the car use to put you into turtle mode or worse still come to a standstill.

Sorry this doesn't help with your question but question from me is why are you bothering with ABRP?

My Rolec connects to my Hyundai via the Ev.energy app showing SOC but I suspect it's because I linked my Hyundai account to the charger. The Hyundai is the same as MGs in as much as it not IOG compatible and curiously not the same as Kia, which is compatible. As can be seen here the info on the...
