    Just purchased a 2024 MG HS Hybrid and would like to turn off regen braking if possible?

    Correct, you can't turn it off in the pre 2025 models. You probably can in the 2025 model as it's a totally different car.

    Voice button on the left side of steering wheel

    Correct. The steering wheel buttons aren't documented very well in the Navigation manual. On my 2022 model, the voice button is on the right hand side of the steering wheel. When your phone is connected via cable and android auto is in operation, you can press the voice button to activate...

    She asked the question in the MG HS / EHS 2020-2024 Plug-in Hybrid Forum so it's about the pre 2025 plug in hybrid models. The first sentence even mentions the 2024 MG HS Plug in hybrid. You do know that pre means before right? 2024 is pre 2025.

    There are no settings for regenerative braking on the pre 2025 models of the PHEV. It cannot be altered, it is permanently on. You will get used to it, I love it. It's put's a small amount of charge back into the battery and even saves wear and tear on the "normal" brakes because you aren't...

    Warning Triangle popup

    It's when you pass a speed limit sign that has additional information on it and the warning is letting you know that you may need to be aware of it. For example in my country there are speed limits at certain times of the day for school zones. The signs have writing below the speed limit...

    Charging Phev battery

    I think Nicola means that after having the car since January 2025, the electric range when full is showing 1 mile less than it did back in January 2025. All batteries degrade over time so the full range will degrade very slowly over time. I have had my 2022 model phev for 3 years. When new...

    1.5 T-GDI PHEV TROPY 5DR AUTO Battery question

    It's only the 2025 model that gets the higher electric range as it has a much larger battery.

    Welcome to the 2020-2024 MG HS Plug-in Hybrid forum - MG HS PHEV Information

    Q1. Electric assistance is only provided to the ICE when there's any strain on the petrol engine, i.e. when accelerating or going up a hill. If you're driving on a flat road at speed, then the car won't use the electric motor at all, it will rely on the ICE only. If your speed drops below...

    ISmart app missing.......

    The iSmart app is not compatible with pre 2025 models of the HS PHEV. The car does not have the required hardware, with the exception of the model sold in Thailand.

    Range Estimation not working.

    Your petrol gauge is working fine, that's normal for it to do that. The range is only a guess based on your current style of driving. Your range showing of 430 km is based on your recent driving style. If you now go and drive 120kmh on a freeway that range will obviously decrease rapidly as...

    Battery usage on highway

    This is normal. Even in default mode the battery will very slowly charge if you are driving constantly regardless of speed and not in stop-start traffic. You can see this if you switch to the hybrid screen while driving, you will see the amps go into negative values that means charge is going...

    Welcome to the 2020-2024 MG HS Plug-in Hybrid forum - MG HS PHEV Information

    Regenerative braking does put a very small amount of charge back into the battery when you are braking, i.e. coasting without touching the accelerator, but you're only braking for a few seconds when going down a hill or slowing down to come to a corner for example. so the amount that goes back...

    "Maintain Vehicle Immediately"

    You probably should check it then, it only takes a minute. Then you'll know if they really did reset the date.
