Our 2 year-old MK1 ZS EV was at 100% SOH at the first service but just has its second service and the SOH had dropped by 6%, to 94%. I was astonished by the drop in a single year as although the car is used daily it is low mileage and the battery is never run low or fast charged. We usually...

The situation can be quite complicated if you're buying a car that may have been off the road for a while (because of lockdowns or just sitting on a dealer forecourt). A year ago we cancelled an order for a pre-registered vehicle with delivery mileage because the dealer couldn't say the battery...

It's a very useful feature but there are two downsides to the autohold on our Gen 1 ZS EV. It's too slow to release at T junctions and the car can suddenly start moving if your right foot so much as looks at the accelerator. 'Creep' is better when parking in tight spaces too.

Mohammed, you said you didn't get a manual with the car. MG manuals can be downloaded from the MG website here: My MG | MG Motor UK

Thanks for the replies. I do understand that the predicted range is based on previous driving patterns. Our problem is that the predicted range increases to unrealistic levels unless we keep resetting the accumulated trip. The predicted range then reduces very rapidly as the battery gets low, so...

Our problem has been going on for months, so we've given up hope of it resolving itself. I contacted another dealer for advice this week. It seems our vehicle shouldn't have had the BMS update as it is for vehicles that were having problems with battery equalisation. (Ours was fine.) The...

I haven't used ours mobile but running 50w at 2m and 80w at 70cm of FM or SSB into a vertical or small beam at this QTH has no effect on our ZS EV Mk1.

We've had a similar issue with our Mk1 since the BMS software 'upgrade'. When charged it claimed a range of over 200 miles. To make matters worse the claimed range didn't go down linearly - it rapidly reduced over the last 45 miles or so. The long term trip also keeps inflating the mi/kWh to a...

How accurate are the ZS range predictions and has anyone seen a big change? The predicted range on our 21 ZS Exclusive always seemed accurate until the dealer did software updates in March (FVCM, FDR, BMS & IPC). Typical fully-charged range before the update was around 159 miles in economy...
