Hi Max Yes I agree it would be a very convenient function if embedded within the i-Smart app. I have used the dis-charge function myself and If I lived off-grid it would probably be worth buying the MG Trophy Connect just for the internet connection (phone & net) and the discharge capability...

Hi N2STY, No not the spreadsheet in post No. 15 above, that is rather ambiguous, it refers to the iSmart user app which cannot afford Wi-Fi Hot Spot. Your post No. 9 in this thread which states that all three models have this feature and is unlikely to come from MG and is unlikely to be true...

I have now heard back from MG about the new ZS EV's which carry the Wi-Fi Hot Spot and they are pretty clear that ONLY the Trophy Connect has this feature, this doesn't matter much to me as I have ordered the Trophy Connect. N2STY has published a spreadsheet above which states that the SE the...

Thank you N2STY for your very quick reply, I have emailed MG Customer Services asking for a clarification of the situation and when they reply I will update this thread.

Dear N2STY, Thank you for your many interesting posts, particularly the post above which states pretty unambiguously that the Wi-Fi Hotspot is not limited to the Trophy Connect. I emailed MG about a week ago asking for clarification on this point...

Please forgive me, I was aware that the U.K. version came without 11 kWh 3 phase charging but It seems the U.K. VTL is reduced as well, I've definitely seen official MG literature stating it is 2,200 watts output here.

I think the VTL capacity is 2,200 watts but 2,500 would be nice, not much difference but it's a pity it can't handle 3 kW even if only at peak.

Wi-Fi hot spot is a feature that I wanted so I've been checking on this, so far it seems this is available on the standard Trophy. If anyone knows for sure please post here. I've seen the features of both and the Hot Spot is in both.

Funnily enough I was wondering if someone (maybe not MG) might do this.

One day all cars will do this !

MilesperkWh saw your Youtube video yesterday and you were a bit ambiguous about whether you only got the Hotspot with the Trophy Connect, I had heard that it came with the Trophy. Could you please confirm ?

Does anyone on here know what the services cover ? Do you get a Morris the bear with every service ?

Well actually it does ! On the couple of occasions that I have driven with the charge port open, I have noticed a dramatic reduction in range over a very small distance ( 3 or 4 miles ). So much so that I could tell that I had done it just by the loss in range. It is about two or three times...

I wonder if anyone else here has left a fast charger and driven off with the charging grill open ? I have done it a couple of times and on both occasions my driving efficiency has nose dived, hardly any surprise you might say with the added drag. But, here's my question, on either sides of the...

Thanks Miles very interesting. Do you know if you can pre-heat the battery when on charge (via i-Smart app) prior to a longer journey so as to make that journey more efficient thus giving more range ?

Miles. Do you know if you can pre-heat the traction battery with iSmart ?

When the i-Smart was said to Pre-condition the car ie:- Heat or Air condition the cabin, I seem to remember someone mentioning that it could also Heat the traction battery. Can Miles or anyone else confirm this as it is quite an important facility, on a long run heating the battery from 25C -...

Well said Lovemyev.

I unlocked a Mitsubishi Outlander on a Rapid charger that had finished charging. The owner came back shortly afterward but I had no way of knowing how long he would be. It was the only Rapid charger and I needed a charge, the other driver made no complaint and indeed he should not have, I was...

For anyone out there who wants a spare wheel, for those occasions when tyre sealant won't cut it ( ie:- almost always ). And , doesn't relish putting a space saver on, even for a very limited time ( they're only good for sub 80 km/h and limited mileage, to nearest open tyre dealer ; oh and they...
