@MondyZurich62 I’ve noticed that driving from cold at the start of a journey it does like to charge the battery at the 35-40 mph speed for a while. Similar revs to you. It calms down when the engine has warmed up a bit. Round town I get over 60 mpg with plenty of EV mode and low revs in HEV

This one works on the mg ZS hybrid and the mg hs phev, so I can’t see why it wouldn’t work on mg3 hybrid. https://amzn.eu/d/1Lu0yQZ

Strange, mine doesn’t behave like that. The “from start” screen accumulates over every journey of the day and the next morning it’s reset itself. I could reset it each journey if I wanted but I think I prefer it the way it is.

On the other mileage display ( from start) , it seems to keep an overall record for each journey you make in a given day and then resets itself the following day. Is that what its meant to do?

Only £25 now. Im happy with mine

At least you know your software is as up to date as it can be.

My car was only picked up last week and doesn’t have GE Be interesting to see if your entertainment s/w ends up different to mine

Did you find out what updates were done? Are you happy with the car?

This one works for me on Apple car play . Supposed to work on android too. https://amzn.eu/d/2QnBygF

We heard you the first time lol

If you are talking about Hill Descent Control, I think is meant for very steep hills at very low speeds, like off road stuff. I’m not sure it’s applicable to normal road driving

@Holk Im no car engine expert but in your situation, is it possible that when the electric motor can’t provide any regen braking, the petrol engine activates to give some braking by engaging a low gear and hence the increase in revs? Maybe someone more knowledgeable can advise.

I understand your caution, I was really responding to people’s difficulty in getting insurance. As for the lack of +, I take comfort from the fact that there has never been any other ZS hybrid before this one.

Not sure what the fuss is about. I’m picking up my ZS trophy tomorrow and last week I did a comparison site quote. I’m 69 with 9 yrs NCD ( provable). Cheapest quote £352 with ncd protection plus total £600 excess, 8000 miles pa. This was with Performance Direct (aka Grove&Dean). I phoned...

True. I did put 2025 as the registration year and I’m not aware of any other ZS hybrid for this year. I haven’t seen the ‘plus’ specified anywhere
