    Farewell MG

    Thank you. (For comparison I paid £58k for my Tesla Model Y in November 2022 so it's just over a year old. That's currently valued at around £37,500 resale, so a depreciation of just over £20k in 14 months. So the MG could be worse! It didn't help that they cut the price of the Model Y by £5k...

    Farewell MG

    After a year of ownership, we've sold my wife's MG ZS. It was bought a year ago for my wife to supplement my Tesla, with the Tesla for long trips and for my daily commute and the MG for my wife to drive the two year old around town to classes and on days out. It's served her well but since then...

    Active Cruise & cornering, is this an issue?

    From the manual (page 206): "Note: The adaptive cruise control system is designed for highways and roads in good condition. It is recommended not to be used on urban roads and mountain roads." and "When driving on a bend, the adaptive cruise control may actively reduce the vehicle speed to...

    Ohme pro + charge percent confusion

    So I'd probably I'd probably not talk about "miles added" in this kind of context, because it's a completely meaningless metric. The only thing added during a charging session is kWh. The car will estimate the range it will get from the percentage of its charge combined with the weather and...

    Am I lucky? - My MG ZS EV Trophy LR experience

    I think you have to remember that forums will always be skewed towards negative experiences in that they are by and large where people go to find help or answers. Most people, if they go for a drive to the supermarket and get home without incident, won't go onto a forum and post about doing so...

    Max rapid charge rate

    My wife has her (standard range) MG ZS for driving our two year old around town etc with no need for rapid charging, and I have a Tesla for long distance family trips and work. I'm conscious that's a privileged position to be in (we moved out of London and the difference in house prices freed...

    Granny charger stops charging after 2 seconds

    Have you locked the car once you've plugged it in? If you lock the car then the cable itself locks in place as a safety feature and if you don't then it cuts the charge. Alternatively, are you sure there's no charging schedule set on the car itself (or via the previous owners app which is still...

    Snow tyres for MG ZS

    Actually finding a whole wheel is beyond me (the only ones I've seen online are space savers and most seem to be 16" rather than the standard 17" for the ZD), but if you just want the details for hole alignment etc I'd have a look here 2022 MG ZS EV - Wheel & Tire Sizes, PCD, Offset and Rims...

    Snow tyres for MG ZS

    So your post talks about two different things - tyres and wheels. I assume you just want to change the tyres from current summer or all season tyres. By snow tires, I assume you mean winter tyres, rather than just snow chains to go on to tyres. In which case try a website like...

    Charging more than 50kw ?

    Max rapid charge rate

    Interesting! Thanks for putting me right. It's my wife's MG and she's never had cause to charge away from home as whenever we do long distances we take my Tesla. I've always set everything up and maintained the MG for her and I couldn't find anything like that when I was going through all the...

    Max rapid charge rate

    Thanks for clarifying. I suspected that was more what you meant, rather than a scheduled precondition. There's no such option in the MG ZS unfortunately (which is the OP's car).

    Max rapid charge rate

    I did a search but couldn't immediately see it. I don't think the battery heating in question is the same thing as pre-fast charger heating though. The battery heating via the app is a scheduled battery heating for pre-departure (i.e. for ensuring the battery isn't completely cold when leaving...

    Max rapid charge rate

    There's no option to preheat the battery before arriving at a charger in an MG? Unless you mean just driving it around for 25 minutes which will inevitably put some heat into it (unlike say a Tesla which will automatically preheat in advance when a charger is entered into the navigation). It...

    Slow charging overnight at home

    Similar to this thread from a couple of days ago: Thread - Charging speed variation I was referring to their specific charger below but my quote below applies to the SyncEV too which also applies load balancing.

    Reduced range in winter (merged)

    No worries. Definitely doesn't need a repair 👍 For info in case you are interested (there's no reason to be!), miles per kWh is literally how many miles travelled for each kWh of energy used. The dash display shows your lifetime (I think) miles per kWh if you scroll to the correct screen, and...

    Reduced range in winter (merged)

    If I was to guess, I'd be saying he was getting around 3.5 miles per kWh summer and is getting about 3 miles per kWh winter... Hopefull OP can confirm. This could become a new sport...

    Reduced range in winter (merged)

    There's no such thing as charging "to a range". The battery will charge to a percentage of it's capacity. From the sounds of it you're charging to 100%. The car will then estimate what that battery charge will get you in terms of distance. That will rely on a number of factors including...
