From memory the mk1 zs update was made for sub zero climates where it was not managing to rapid charge properly as the heat generated when charging wasn't enough to warm the battery enough to allow higher speeds. I believe it only heated the battery when temperature was lower than -10 as they...
The problem with the mk1 zs and the mg5 standard range is there is no way to preheat the battery. The mg5 lr has a battery heater that you can turn on that significantly improved the rapid charge speed.
Based on my experience charging the mg5 lr and the spec of the mg4 I would say 160 miles of real world range added in half an hour if you charge from 10%. This is a guess Based on me charging the mg5 lr and the difference in specification it has to the mg4 hopefully without any mistakes.
I...
mg5 lr using the battery heater got 92kW from 10% to 35% then 78kw to 45% then it dropped to about 68kw till at least 60% and I stopped recording. I do know it can still pull >50kw up to 80%.
So that looks like it averages around 80kw for 10%-60% and even if it throttles to 50kw for 60% -80%...
