hybrid

A hybrid vehicle is one that uses two or more distinct types of power, such as submarines that use diesel when surfaced and batteries when submerged. Other means to store energy include pressurized fluid in hydraulic hybrids.
Hybrid powertrains are designed to switch from one power source to another to maximize both fuel efficiency and energy efficiency. In hybrid electric vehicles, for instance, the electric motor is more efficient at producing torque, or turning power, while the combustion engine is better for maintaining high speed. Improved efficiency, lower emissions, and reduced running costs relative to non-hybrid vehicles are three primary benefits of hybridization.

    MG3 Hybrid +Navigation

    Hi. I’ve picked up my MG3 Trophy but I can’t get the navigation system to work properly. It’s looking as if it’s in night mode. I’ve tried to follow the instructions in the online handbook but with no success. Can anyone help please?

    Dash cams and creep in the MG3 Hybrid+

    Do any owners know if the Hybrid auto creeps when the brake is released? This is a useful benefit of 'normal' auto boxes in slow moving traffic, and a great asset when reversing. On another note, I've been reading about dash cams...has any owner got a preference 'make' to suit the mg3? Aitch1

    What's this symbol?

    Re 2022 MG HS This symbol has appeared today - top left of photo. A white disc surrounded by a red circle. There's no reference to it in the owners manual. Any ideas what it means? Thanks

    SOC Level

    Not happy that when you select EV mode it keeps dropping back to Auto. Yes I understand parameters must be met in EV mode, but why doesn't it revert to EV automatically? So thinking of a work around, does anyone know what code in the EMS sets the 50% SOC level in auto mode? Thinking this could...

    Record high MPG - can anyone beat this!

    HI, I'm a new PHEV owner. Did a mixed drive (town traffic/highway) on pure EV mode and the MPG just kept going up and up and up! Ended up on 562 MPG - it refused to go higher so maybe that's the upper limit on the counter. Either that or the car is faulty :) Has anyone ever hit these levels?
