    Reverse camera IQ

    On my three year old MG ZS EV, mk1, the image quality on the reversing camera is rubbish. I am comparing it against the MG HS in Oz, which I recently had a ride in. That has very good IQ, and also had a 3D image of the car and surroundings... I don't expect to have the 3D, composite of three...

    Hot plug

    I have uses an EV now for some 6 years, and my usual way of charging is from an outside 3 pin plug socket.
