    Speed Limiter Changes

    Has anyone else noticed that the speed limiter function no longer needs to be re-selected from the screen every time the car is restarted? (or indeed, was our car the only one this happened on previously?) Historically, the speed limiter has been a proper PITA to use because it had to be reset...

    Steering gone on my 2021 ZS EV

    I doubt MG in France or their dealer network will care much about what VOSA says or thinks ;) What annoys me the most is that it's now 10x worse than before they 'fixed' it with a new column.

    Steering gone on my 2021 ZS EV

    We have the exact same, trust me it will get worse - MG are now refusing to even answer our emails or return our calls about it !!

    MG ZS EV One pedal driving

    The Aussies have hacked the Mk1 ZS to improve regen, bring true one pedal driving and fix the cruise control to use regen rather than the mechanical brakes - all things that in their natural state annoy me about the ZS. Now all I need is to find out if this can be done with the Mk2 as well 🙂

    MG ZS EV Window tints

    Do you have a sunroof? The newer model Trophies had the sunroof deleted but added rear tints instead I believe.

    Charging etiquette- someone unplugged me!

    This happens all the time at free chargers here and is totally normal.

    Charging etiquette- someone unplugged me!

    Perfectly normal and acceptable. If your car had stopped charging at 80% the charge point would be showing that it was no longer charging and whilst some do lock the cable at the CP end, some do not and it's absolutely normal for someone to unplug a car that is not charging to use the charge...

    New MG ZS EV Trophy...it's bad

    We had that once - tuens out I had the door open looking out of it to reverse (I hate the 360 camera). It just puts the brake on immediatly if you try that. It will drive perfectly well (all be it with an annoying bong every few seconds) with no seatbelt on.

    New MG ZS EV Trophy...it's bad

    What I dislike about our ZS: MG Dealers, MG France, MG Europe and the fact that after waiting 6 months for the steering to be 'repaired' (new column), it's now 5 times worse than it was before and MG have washed their hands of it saying 'it's supposed to be like that' (with the steering...

    ISmart app not binding to MG ZS EV

    Try swapping between email address and phone number when trying to bind. Took us a few goes and one didn't work, but one did (but can't remember which way around it was).

    MG ZS EV 50.3w battery in Australia v India range

    We have the 72kWh battery and don't get 480 km out of it, the best is around 440-450 km even in the summer. Perhaps the batteries are super-efficient in the Indian climate? But more likely an inaccurate guess from Autocar. EV Database lists the smaller battery car's range as 270 km (WLTP 320...

    Mileage issue

    Drive it in the summer ;) Seriously though, the cold weather has a big effect on the range. We were getting 400kms + in the summer, now down to about 300 which is kind of inline with expectations (circa 25% reduction).

    Headlamp Adjustment (LHD/RHD)

    LOL. We'll just do what almost all continental driver do and ignore it anyhow.

    Faults after jump starting MG ZS EV

    It should be covered by the car's warranty (but you may want to think about not saying the doors were open and just stick with "the battery discharged" ;) )

    Charge Flap snapped off - ZS EV Trophy

    As an aside, if anyone uses a Tesla supercharger be aware that, because they are designed for Teslas which generally have side-located charge ports, we noticed that the charging cables are quite short and you have to park very close to the charge point for the cabe to reach with enough slack for...

    Specifications Country Differences

    Don't forget also that our versions here in Europe get the three-phase AC charger (11kW) whilst the UK versions only get single-phase (7.4kW).

    iSMART update

    Yes you can, you need to swipe between imperial and metric in the profile page, not just tap one or the other. Here's where I tried it an hour or so ago:
