Finally, a test that reflects the facts. In previous test reports, you only ever hear how great the car is, but hardly anyone talks about the faults, and MG also seems to have little interest in rectifying them.

From R46 to R61 now.

But that's not the point! Firstly, my condition for purchasing the vehicle was that it would be delivered with the latest software, and this was promised to me. Secondly, MG advertises OTA software updates as a way of quickly receiving improvements, as all other manufacturers do, at least within...

You must unzip the file and create a file named "VN.txt" (without the quotation marks) in the maps directory. In this text file (VN.txt), write only the word "pass" (without the quotation marks). Directory as shown in the image.

It's really annoying when you've only had the vehicle for six months. Wireless AA isn't that important to me, nor is 2VL, but I would have liked to have had the steering wheel heating. It probably won't be that easy to retrofit the steering wheel either.

OK, I'll take back my scepticism. I've now checked the German, Austrian and Swiss MG websites. It's not mentioned anywhere. Perhaps the websites haven't been updated yet.

He has now posted a picture, but somehow I don't really believe it. Maybe he doesn't really know the difference between Phev and Hybrid+. And what's also strange is that he has 3G reception in the picture, which hasn't been available in Germany since 2021. But maybe it's not a German...

You mean something completely different... I don't mean the charging times, but rather the battery level to which you want to charge.

Since purchasing my PHEV in July 2025, I have been using the Carscanner Pro app with an OBDLink MX+ dongle and have been satisfied so far because Carscanner displays a lot of information about the car: actual SOC, SOH, fuel level, RPM, engine temperature and much more. However, I had a problem...

I asked him specifically, but he confirmed that he has the PHEV. I'm still a bit sceptical, though, because I can't find anything about it on the MG website.

Someone on the German MG forum just reported that the PHEV now also has a heated steering wheel. He got his in September. I can hardly believe it...

From my own experience with the HS, I can tell you that the heating consumes a lot of battery power. This is especially true if you only drive short distances, because the car has to heat up again and again. When it's cold, I mainly use the seat heating and set the heating to a maximum of 20...

To be honest, I don't really understand what you mean. "The range drops dramatically" – what range? And the HS PHEV can't charge quickly, not even at public charging stations. Perhaps you could tell us what you mean by "drastically". I don't know what the temperatures are like where you are...

Where can you set this in the app? This is not available in the app, at least not for PHEVs.
