    Post your MG ZS EV battery SOH data please

    Interesting. I came here because I am worried about a decline. After a full charge, including balancing. SOH: 96.4 Voltage: 452 ODO: 12021 km (7469 miles) GOM after charge: 251 km on Normal (previously 263 until a few months ago). Bought: March 2020 - so about 18 months old. So, I've lost...

    1% BATTERY LEFT

    I keep detailed records of usage for my ZS EV and the GOM is incredibly accurate for us. I reset the accumulated after every charge. The GOM matches almost kilometer for kilometer our actual usage, with minor variances, and that includes A/C and other device usages. At the top of the charge...

    Real World Range of MG ZS EV

    I've read these posts with interest, and there are inconsistencies. The original poster claims that the ZS has a maximum range of 95 miles (152km) in winter. Then, the next poster agrees with him that this is about right, but then claims the 35-mile warning sounds at about 100 miles for him...

    What car did you replace with your MG?

    Replaced a 14-year-old Mazda 6 Sport, which I loved. Replaced it with an MG ZS EV Exclusive (the only model available here). I slightly miss the low, smooth ride the sport suspension offered in the Mazda. The ZS can be slightly bouncy, although it handles well. But, overall, the MG is an...

    Is your cars maths correct? Mine never is!

    I think the GOM is considering some driving history. My wife drives the MG as if she stole it, while I tend to be more conservative. The predicted remaining range is always much lower after she has driven it for a few trips, certainly lower than the kilometres she actually travelled. For...

    Wow. That is a serious commitment to data analysis. Well done.

    Wow, 200 mile range

    In ECO, yes, this is possible. Aircon usage will knock this down to 270 or 280km. In Normal mode, however, we more realistically get 240 to 270 depending on conditions.

    Returned to the dark side

    I understand this decision, especially if the MG ZS EV is your only car. I purchased our MG as a second car, replacing my old ICE vehicle. My wife has a Mazda CX-5. However, it took a lot of thought and an honest analysis of my real-world driving before I committed. I only drive locally, so...

    Tinted windows.

    In Australia, it's more or less a standard upgrade. All dealers offer it as part of the package with the car. I had mine tinted before I picked it up.

    MG ZS EV Australia Based Review

    I've owned mine for about three weeks, and I love it so far. It has mostly rained since I've had the car, with only one hot day, so not sure about the sunroof in the heat yet. We had the windows tinted before picking it up, an absolute must in our climate. His comments about the A/C are fair...

    Travelled 6 km today, and range reduced 36 km

    Thanks again, Jeb. I am a novice and probably overthinking things. So, the battery gauge is not linear? Each bar isn't necessarily 12.5%? The performance is impressive. It puts you back in your seat if you want it to. My wife says: "just drive it like your old petrol car, stop worrying so...

    Travelled 6 km today, and range reduced 36 km

    Thanks, Jep. It's a shame that the battery toggle doesn't also show %, which might be more reassuring to drivers. I am enjoying the car. This is my first EV, so I'm also settling into it.

    Travelled 6 km today, and range reduced 36 km

    At the beginning of charging last night, the capacity was 77% and the range (on the charging screen) was 197, which is 7 km less than the day before, or about right. Interested to see whether the range estimation on the speedometer screen learns from my driving once I've completed more klms...

    Thank you. That's extremely helpful. Glad I found this forum. Loving the car so far.

    Travelled 6 km today, and range reduced 36 km

    I've had the car for two days. Today, I drive to work and back, which is only 6 km in total. Using Android Auto and aircon. Range dropped from 204 to 168, both estimated in Normal mode. Thoughts from experienced owners appreciated.
