    Set to automatically charge when connected to power

    Thanks all. I think I’ve figured it out. I plugged the car in and started the charger and left it. The lights on the car changed from blue to green after about a minute without me having to manually tell it to start charging on the MG app.

    Set to automatically charge when connected to power

    Hi, I have had my MG ZS EV Trophy LR (the newer version) for a few weeks now and charge it at home from a 7.5kw EV charger which is controlled from an app. Currently, the way I get the car to charge is plug it into the charger, tell the charger to start charging using its app and then tell the...

    What % should I routinely charge a MG ZS EV LR to?

    I have had my MG ZS EV LR for about a week and so far I have charged it to 100% every night. On average, I probably use about 5-15% battery charge per day to get to and from work and do a few local trips. The iSmart app seems to indicate that you should normally charge the car to 80% and only...

    MG ZS EV Shipping Updates

    I finally picked up my car (MG ZS EV Trophy LR) earlier this week. I ordered at the end of March 22 so about 10.5 months wait; certainly a bit longer than the 3 month wait I was originally told to expect. My initial thoughts are: 1. The seats are comfortable (really important), 2. The ride is...

    Collecting my car on Monday 6 February 2023. A little over 10 months from ordering it. A long way off the original ETA but still not as long as some people are waiting. Edited to add - I finally picked it up today (6 Feb 23).

    Octopus Energy - Sharing my Prices and thoughts - January 2023 onwards…

When you first switch across, they initially put you onto their standard fixed rate tariff which was only marginally cheaper than the default tariff that my...

    Octopus Energy - Sharing my Prices and thoughts - January 2023 onwards…

    I have just switched my electricity supplier to Octopus in anticipation of taking delivery of my MG ZS EV (hopefully next week) and because my electricity previous tariff had expired which increased the price I was paying. They have a new customer referral scheme where if an existing customer...

    MG ZS EV Shipping Updates

    Does anyone know what the delivery status “Awaiting Allocation” quoted by the MG dealers use actually means? When I first ordered my car at the end of March 22, I was told it had an ETA of June 22. That steadily moved back until I was told it had an ETA of September 22. I was then told that...
