    Interesting/worrying story from Scotland - ZS with no brakes.

    If anything like this happens in real life, pull hard and hold on the parking brake, it should come on.

    Dealers Cull - Sad Day

    Yes, I agree. I understand the general idea is to make the dealers more professional and more upmarket but it does push out small scale local excellent service.

    Dealers Cull - Sad Day

    Yes, I heard MG have new minimum dealer size / facilities requirements that mean some of the smaller shops have to close.

    Interesting/worrying story from Scotland - ZS with no brakes.

    Wait and see until we learn more. I've learned to be sceptical of such stories as many times they have turned out to not be what they first look like. People have been known to fake, make up, exaggerate and distort their experiences consciously or unconsciously. From accident research...

    Interesting/worrying story from Scotland - ZS with no brakes.

    This sort of thing has been reported lots of times before across various makes - almost always turns out to be some other factor, like a car mat or something the driver is doing. Reminds me a lot of these examples: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudden_unintended_acceleration

    What's the MG ZS EV fast-charge time with the different battery types: LFP (SR) 20-100% vs. NMC (LR) 20-80%?

    I think there may be some unit confusion here. 'miles' is a distance measure, so 'miles per hour' is indeed a rate/speed measurement. But energy is measured in Joules (J) and power in J/s, or alternately kW, which is already a rate measurement. So the 'speed' is 80kW and meter is in kWh (or...

    What's the MG ZS EV fast-charge time with the different battery types: LFP (SR) 20-100% vs. NMC (LR) 20-80%?

    Yes, understood. In my calculation I assumed 60kW to give a 30 min charge to add 30kWh to the SR battery.

    What's the MG ZS EV fast-charge time with the different battery types: LFP (SR) 20-100% vs. NMC (LR) 20-80%?

    Thanks and thanks for the link. If I'm understanding it all correctly: Using the WLTP figures, LR is 273 miles and SR is 198 miles. Obviously real-world is less than this but good enough to compare. 80% of 273 is 218 miles, so small difference of about 20 miles effective range from home...

    What's the MG ZS EV fast-charge time with the different battery types: LFP (SR) 20-100% vs. NMC (LR) 20-80%?

    Thanks. I was wondering if the LFP/SR was quicker from 80-100% but would understand if it is the same across both types.

    What's the MG ZS EV fast-charge time with the different battery types: LFP (SR) 20-100% vs. NMC (LR) 20-80%?

    I'm new here but have been reading the forum and following the last few podcasts. I'm thinking of purchasing an MG EV early next year (assuming we can order again and get a delivery by then!). My question is about the LFP (SR) vs. NMC (LR) battery in the MG ZS. It has been mentioned on the...
