    Battery degraded by approx. 20 miles in 10 months

    Hi all, Thanks for all of your fantastic advice. I don’t regularly charge to 100% on a rapid charger, only about 5 times in 10 months that I've had the car. Thanks @Rolfe for the tip about charging to say 80% on a rapid charger and then charging the remaining 20% at home, this makes good...

    Battery degraded by approx. 20 miles in 10 months

    Hi all, I bought my 44.5 kWh ZS EV (2020 model) about 10 months ago and last Summer I charged it a several times using a fast charger (BP Pulse) and achieved figures like 148 miles and 152 miles at 100% capacity. During the Winter months I didn’t travel very far so tended to just top up with...

    Granny charger works only for a bit and then stops

    I haven't set up a charging schedule (wouldn't know how to). Charging was fine until after the service. I've booked the car back in for the dealer to check over, but not until after Christmas. Thanks, this sounds plausible although granny charging was fine for the first 3 months, using the same...

    Granny charger works only for a bit and then stops

    No, I doubt it will make a difference. House wiring is 3 years old and not raised any issues. Charged perfectly OK for about 40 miles 2 weeks ago. Must be the car or charger. Probably something to do with the service. Some kind of software upgrade perhaps?

    Granny charger works only for a bit and then stops

    Thanks for the advice. point 1 is tricky as I don't know anybody else with an MG ZS EV. I will definitely be doing point 2 in a week or so and trying out a rapid charge to see if that works. Just thought somebody may have experienced similar behaviour or know what the flashing lights mean.

    Granny charger works only for a bit and then stops

    Hi all, My granny charger seems to be working 'on and off'. Works for a bit, the stops, then I reset, works for a bit more, ... and so on. As we are now in Winter and I don't do that much driving (only local) in comparison to Summer, so I've been putting 30-40 miles on the battery with the...

    what's the lowest % battery you've gone to on a trip ?

    MG ZS EV (2020) return journey with 3 bikes on top and one in the boot. Massively underestimated the effect of the bikes and display went to 7 miles remaining and then --- (no 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1). At --- I drove a further 3 miles and made it home.

    Battery power reduced by a third carrying 4 mountain bikes

    Hi all, I’m new to the forum and the proud owner of a 3 year old MG ZS EV exclusive (2020 model 44.5 KWh), which I’m very happy with overall, despite a few niggles. I’ve owned the vehicle for 3 months and it's my first EV. I’ve had a couple of holiday trips to North Wales and it performed well...
