I asked AI, this is what it says for interest Summary (Typical Contribution Percentages) Cabin heating: ~40% Battery chemistry losses: ~25% Battery warming systems: ~15% Tyre rolling resistance: ~10% Aerodynamic drag increase: ~6% Ancillary loads: ~4% Reduced regen braking: ~3% These add up...

Maybe, ~10% is a lot less than I expected but could be correct. My enegry consumption has increased from ~4mile/kWh to 3 mile/kWh though in the winter, I was expecting most of that would be due to cabin heating but I guess it's something else (cold batteries?)

Thanks for the replies, the question is if the display is correct, I'm surprised how little (Or no) energy) the cabin heating uses in the UK winter, according to the display at least.

I seem to use less that 1kwh heating for 7kw driving in the winter, does that seem correct this diaply i think can only show 1kwh blocks so all I know is the heating ls 1kwh or less? - I'm getting 3 to 3.5 mile/kw driving steady so there's a 0.5 to 1kwh increase in use over th summer but maybe...

Late reply but I just fitted it myself.

We don't have apple phones and I've seen screenshots where there is a weather summary instead of apple car play is - how can I do this?

I wonder if there is a way to raise his as a bug to MG?

Yes is one possibility - I like day mode in day though

This seems to have stopped working, is there any way to get it working again? The screen is distractingly bright at night. Is there a way to manually dim the android auto screen if we cannot get this working, or switch the screen off?

PS I think that message about making money from ebay is not for me lol - must be for this site i'm just sharing my experience.

I got the this towbar off ebay, https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/146372983081 Automatic Vertical Swan Neck Towbar + 7 Pin Wiring For MG 4 Electric, Xpower ~£200 including electrics. Very happy with it and nearly invisible. The bumper has no visible cuts which I like a lot. As a bonus you can also...

Must be if yours works and stays on - what year is your car?

Is there a way to do this? It does not stay active when selected - switches off for the next drive cycle. I tried selecting regeneration or driving mode on the steering wheel star button but they do not seem able to enable one pedal driving.

Obviously it uses your driving efficiency but when from? Is it possible to start a new trip and reset the estimate if the driving efficiency will be a lot different e.g. motorway instead of city, or using a trailer?

Just tried it, looks great, hopefully setting driving modes for the other button will allow me to switch one pedal driving on quickly as well..
