    This is hilarious

    Yes all very true 🤣 I don't have Facebook, but found elsewhere:

    New MG4 EV unveiled in China with semi-solid-state battery potential

    I wonder if it might be the relative technological sophistication too, in reportedly a quite tech-savvy market. The MG display feels very old fashioned compared to youtube videos of BYD and other cars, then you have other brands with things like lidar-based self driving, compared to MG's dodgy...

    Driving MG4 to Zero%

    I think it probably depends on many things, e.g. temperature, the age/health of the battery as well as how well calibrated it is by balance/full charges. It's not as simple as with a petrol tank where you physically have a certain amount of liquid left. So I wouldn't absolutely rely on having X...

    Service history - issues obtaining

    Useful thread - I'm definitely going to keep a printout of each service in the glovebox (particularly as the last one was non-MG)

    2nd service

    Service done today and by the way I asked them to check the reduction gearbox oil just for my peace of mind as I've read some posts here about some cars being delivered with too little in. The amount was ok but they were shocked at the state of the oil after only 11,000 miles. Lots of metal...

    I created an AI with all the information on MG4

    Looks great from the comments (not tried it directly yet). Maybe you could add this forum as a knowledge source as well? At least the pinned FAQ page.

    2nd service

    Yes hopefully at some point in the future there will be more independent ev garages around

    2nd service

    £240 from Bristol MG but £140 from Cleevely plus whatever they need to do - they only change brake fluid if necessary after testing. They confirm manufacturer's warranty is unaffected. As I've done under 12,000 miles I don't expect there will be much. No software updates unfortunately, but at...

    MG4 SE LR says 100% charge but only 165 miles shows

    I wonder if there should be a winter range thread in the wiki post of common questions pinned to the top of the forum. I can see there's a general range one, I'm sure it has cold weather stuff in there somewhere but it's pages long. My suspicion is a lot of it is to do with battery heating...

    Winter Handling

    The stock tyres are very bad, mine always slips when going downhill over cattle grids, or often when braking lightly on a downhill in the wet, or sometimes accelerating lightly over some sort of non-standard road surface. I think they're very hard, good for longevity and probably range but not...

    Dead Battery and Won’t Charge!

    Good to know that's the case even when charging I guess. A particularly stupid bit of coding if I may say but what can we do.

    Dead Battery and Won’t Charge!

    I can understand the 12V battery dying but during charging seems a strange time for it to happen. Isn't the car supposed to charge the 12V from the main battery during use or charging? I thought the most danger of a dead 12V would be from coming back to the car after it had been sitting idle for...

    Snow and Forward Collision Assistance System

    Sorry, I meant seeing the car in front of the car in front. But in general, however it works, I'd be turning off collision assist, lane keeping and ACC when snowing. Unexpected steering jerks or braking could be very dangerous.

    Snow and Forward Collision Assistance System

    Teslas do this mostly or purely with cameras, so I suspect it's the same. The bottom line is theres no way I'd trust the MG ACC system in snow given the patchy way all the driver assistants work at the best of times, I think for everyone's safety it would be best to disable them and concentrate.
