    MG Return to Longbridge?

    If I am not mistaken Chinese firms enjoy tax breaks when building cars in home country which is one of the reasons they can build cars at the prices we have come to expect of them. It would take more than the MG brand legacy to persuade SAIC to build cars on this site. The sale figures in UK...

    MGZSEV Reduction Gearbox Oil Mist

    Ok, I did not follow up on my case since it was confirmed to be a mist and is expected. Gearbox leak on ZS EV is not commonly reported issue, I would advise you to ring the dealer with photographic evidence.

    Scraping Noise When Using ACC/Traffic Jam Assist

    Like @Tim Green said, Gen1 had a sound all the time when using MG Pilot and used to happen only when car is coming to complete standstill. In one of the podcasts it was discussed as normal and ABS related. @IanSS , can you attach sound recording?

    Battery capacity and poor range

    Hello @andymgzs Please, what is the voltage shown in the trip meter screen at full charge? What is the range reported by the car at full charge after trip meter A and B are reset? How did you read 0% charge when you started measurement at home? Please, have you tried charging at a rapid...

    Reduced in kMs

    Yes, battery degradation is expected in the first couple of years. I do not think you can claim it under warranty . You should ask your dealership to provide you battery state of health report with every service just to keep an eye on degradation.

    Zs falling apart

    If it is of any consolation, there are a number of threads on steering issues with ZS. A number of them had them replaced under warranty. I hope you do not run into any more problems with your car.

    Popped open the bonnet of my MK1 ZS EV to top up screen washer. Signs of a suspicious leakage? Is that the gearbox breather I see?

    Scheduled charging using the app - does it work for you?

    I have ZS EV MK1 where there are no controls in car to schedule charging. The car is always ready to accept charge. Is this not possible with MK2?

    Scheduled charging using the app - does it work for you?

    May I know if there is a good reason to choose MG app over the charger app for scheduling. We have a podpoint charger at home and never experienced issues with schedules set in podpoint app.

    Unbelievable! [ Charging etiquette ]

    I did try to unplug a Tesla, waited till it were 95%, only to find the sentry mode kick off and seeing myself on the giant central display.😄 I waited for the gentleman's return and explained myself, he did not mind a bit. I was desperate, would not recommend unplugging others unless...

    Real World Range of MG ZS EV

    Thanks @JodyS21 You have raised a valid point. The losses during overnight charging will include battery heating and AC DC inverter losses. Regarding regen, I did not understand why we need regen data to work out power consumption. I understand that trip computer reports net power and not the...

    MG ZS EV Facelift - Have you ordered?

    I believe the new infotainment system receives maps updates over cellular network. It will have an embedded simcard for this. The SE, trophy will not support live updates and music streaming, i.e you as a user will not have control on data downloaded. The manufacturer will be able to push...

    New (late 2021) ZS EV

    I was trying to make an educated guess of the new prices. Current + 1000-1500£ for standard range Current + 4000-4500£ for long range Based on assumption price per kWh to be 200usd as discussed on the podcast+ VAT + misc Does it sound fair?
