    Tow bar

    Takes a lot of time and effort to do videos. I will ask around to see if I can find an MG4 with towbar as don't have one on my Gen 1 ZS.

    MG4 hasn’t charged overnight again…

    Wow, sounds like a "Lemon". Suggest requesting a replacement from Dealer.

    Basic (standard) or long range

    Hi Baldy, don't over think it! Just buy the range which suits 80-90% of your driving needs. No use carrying, and paying for, a larger heavier battery you only need 10% of the time. Keep in mind more chargers are going in all the time, again making larger batteries less needed. As for different...

    MG4 or Tesla Model 3

    Wow that's a good deal for Tesla M3. Here in Aust MG4 pricing just announced, around A$48k, and dealers have started taking orders. 2nd hand STANDARD range+ M3 are still around A$55k here so personally I would be going for M3 LR in your neck of the woods if it suits your needs. Plus the...

    MG4 Dead !!

    Yes same as petrol car. EV needs to be 'in' to charge 12 volt.

    Sitting in car whilst charging

    Depends on the EV but generally lock the car, plug in, start charging. Unlock and jump into car, car often stops charging for 10-15 seconds but will restart, then do whatever you need to do. If using accessories heater etc, just make sure you have the car 'on' so you don't flatten the 12 volt...

    Dented pride!

    Global problem unfortunately! If unlikely enough to hit one and do damage just need to claim from the local council. 😀

    7kw home charging only pulling 5.8 - 6.2kw

    As you probably know multiple things could cause this but all being equal I will be interested to see if other MG4 drivers have the same. Thanks for asking the question. Gen 1 ZS EV here so can't answer for the 4.

    Tow bar

    Hi Peter, Perfect! I didn't know you could get trailers that light. Yes definitely worth it with that type of trailer.

    Interior lighting at night

    I cut holes in the hood lining on left and right side in back seat area and installed courtesy lights and also added lights in front foot wells. Very good lighting now but shouldn't have to upgrade interior lights in a new car in 2022. Last vehicle I done it with was a 1975 model car but that...

    Tow bar

    Is an actual towbar viable with a 500kg limit? Here in Australia most cars with this limit are only used for bike racks as we cant buy lightweight trailers. I believe you guys can? The payload available after our trailer weight doesn't make it worth it, as much as I like having a trailer I...

    Interior lighting at night

    I hope it's better than the ZS EV, its absolutely crap! I had to do a DIY upgrade.

    MG4 "Oil" Leak Poll Part 2

    The problem could have been related to a production line run, and the different motors could have been batched run produced on production line capturing this info could help narrow down.

    MG4 Reduction Gearbox Oil Leak

    In my ZS EV I had a small amount come out the breather after a long motorway drive on a very hot Australian summer day (38 degrees) but not enough to spot the driveway.
