    Tesla Charger compatibility

    Hi all. Currently on holiday in France in my MG5 <2021). Tesla Superchargers are available in some locations, I tried charging at Folkestone and again in France. The Tesla app worked fine, however each time it didn't start charging. It appears it can't recognise it? Anyone else had issues or...

    ODB Reader for ABRP live data

    Hi all, After reading a few threads about this I decided to waste some money on getting an ODB reader. I'm not too interested in getting in depth diagnostics or anything like that, but was interested to see if it would help my ABRP route planning app work better by allowing it access to live...

    MG5 vs Skoda Enyaq - three in the back

    Good Practice for Battery Life and Home Charging

My limited research would suggest that good practice would be: 1. not to continually recharge the battery - I'm thinking I'll...

    Routing for longer trips

    I'm about to embark on my first longish trip in my new MG5 and just wondered how most people handle routing? Zap map seems good but do people use that instead of our as well as Google maps? Any other apps people use for finding chargers enroute?

    Home Charging

    Hi all. I'm (hopefully shortly) about to receive my first ever brand new car - and it's a MG5 EV We're lucky enough to have off-street parking and I've ordered a home Charge point via Pod-Point. Been a bit of a palaver so far - filling in the forms for the govt grant etc - and there seems to be...
