    How to drive an electric?

    I had no problem with feet, braking with the right foot is the preferred way but occasionally I find myself in go cart mode using one foot for each pedal. The problem I had anticipated was slow speed manoeuvres such as parking as I had always controlled speed with the clutch - what to do now...

    My smart app not working just when need it

    Use key fob to unlock car. Use key fob to re-lock car. Swipe down on iSmart home screen to refresh. Try the pre heat again. Car has probably gone to sleep, above should sort it.

    Efficacy of Aero Wheel Covers

    No idea if the aero covers make a difference to economy, I asked for mine to be left on the boot and they have never been fitted, I just prefer the naked look.

    MG iSmart 2.0 [merged]

    First impression, it wasn't broke - but is now. I don't want range in metric, can't select imperial - it's greyed out. Left a "poor" revue on playstore.

    2.0 miles/kWh, normal in this cold weather? (UK)

    My average this month is 1.97 mi/kWh over 300 miles. Daily use is typically defrost using remote 10 minute cabin heat, drive 1.5 miles to check on my ageing father, stay with him for an hour then 1.5 miles home. I don't like winter, neither does the LFP battery. Longer trip (20 miles) will show...

    MG4 (Luxury) facelift or not???

    In my opinion - which won't be shared by everyone: I have a MY22 SE/SR but have driven the current version as a loan car during first service. 18" wheels: Look nice but lower profile tyres mean feeling the bumps/potholes more but are possibly better for cornering if you push the car close to...

    Idiots guide to scheduled charging with a Myenergi Zappi

    As above, I plug the zappi in to the car, it tries to charge for 30 seconds then goes to waiting. In the zappi app my settings are below. Do not close the zappi app on your phone. Hope it helps, works for me.

    MG4 EV Charging Cost with EON

    I wish I had a statement, last one was dated 13th October, nothing since then. Now lost track due to IHD not being smart. I know I can get the information from the zappi app but it shouldn't be nescessary. A statement on a monthly basis would be a great help.
