Where did data come from. I ask because elsewhere on this site it references that MG have hard coded the SOH into the diagnostics. Mine when battery is completely flat to fully charged takes 32kwh. Not 44.5kwh capacity. 73%! Computer says 92%!

95%. My learned colleagues on this site have told me that MG have hardwired the SOH and it bears no relation to the actual health. Computer says it’s ok so it must be despite PPP.! Also, charging speed not covered by warranty so they can dial it back as much as they like with a software reset...

It may be cosmetic but driving in rain with the flap flapping will cause many more problems.

No idea. It goes into service every year and the dealer kick the tyres and charges me ~£100. Other symptoms suggest to me it knackered. I hope my meter is accurate. Ps I use a Zappi and I have verified it with Zappi, independent CTs and meter readings. I has become irrelevant because it goes...

MG did - 95% at 40k miles. Ties with 32kWh. Energy in and out balance give or take some losses.

My charge flap has stopped latching closed and does not lock. It just stays open. MG want to charge me £450 for a replacement. Car still under warranty - why is this not covered? Warranty is incredibly POOR?

At the end of every full charge my ZS takes at least a 4 hour balancing charge at 0.3kW. Sometimes 6 hours. This is in addition to the very poor fast charging and very low battery capacity compared to specification. Max charge rate ever has been 36kW. Spec 76kW. Max charge from zero to full...

MG really need to sort out their customer service and have a warranty that is worth the paper it is written on. Good service costs nothing.

Agreed - here are two characterisations of services - let you decide which manufacturer. Book service on App. Mobile service proposed. Remote diagnostic indicates new ultrasonic sensor needed. Service agent calls morning of booked service, text when 45 minutes away. Turns up on time. Sonic...

Read the terms of the warranty - it’s one of the flakiest out there. Many things are not covered. First visit I was charged for a software update - when I argued car was delivered with a software defect and it would not function without update then they waived the charge.

I’m always impressed with this forum because there is a huge amount of experience and advice out there. Answer is that I don’t know. I’ll look next time. And will ask MG to look at this. It’s a complete pain in the ass when it happens because it immobilises the car and cannot get into it...

Sell i Sell it - MG Service is terrible. Warranty also really flaky.

My ZSEV 2020 has had many 12v battery failures (goes flat for absolutely no reason) - one time as mad as waiting in a drive through - 12v goes flat then have to be towed out. Other time parked up for 1 hour, other times at an airport for a few days. Another issue that MG refuse to accept. They...

Your grid voltage was probably low. 7kw at nominal voltage.

A recurring fault with the ZS EV. Happened many times to ours. Once sat in a drive through. Often at home. When left at friends for a few days. Seems to consume the 12v battery for no reason and then it is completely dead. Always have a 12v charger to hand. AA are well aware and get you back on...

My daughter did a fastcharge at InstaVolt. 150kw station last week. 21kwh took 1hr 1 minute. Crap. Put another way 50% charge takes 1 hour. 100% forget it - no one can wait that long. MG have had the car in 4 times now for this fault and still say there is no problem. This is why we will...

what was the max charge rate you achieved? Should be 76kw. The network is less a problem in Europe but the charging speed on my ZS is really poor. Agree that European trip are a breeze. Worked for 4 year in NL and now France drive over most of the time every week. Not in MG. My round trip to...

Let me know how you get on. Mine had the latest software but I have no way of confirming that. Totally sketchy. They tried to charge me for the comfort update so I didn’t have to stand in the rain whilst charging. Coincidentally mine is in for a check on Friday. I’ll predict the outcome. MG...

Thanks - that’s clear. I’ve noted that ACC and the absence of regen does have a range impact. Now I’m confused.

From all of the replies I still don’t know if MG Pilot uses regen when slowing down. The dashboard indicator says it doesn’t. MG ZS EV 2020
