regen

I know this has been mentioned in other forums, but I've not come across a really conclusive answer (especially for the MGS5). But I'll accept the flak if I've missed it :) I tried out the single pedal operation today and quite liked it, but several times when I was decelerating under regen the...

So had the MGS5 for two months and now 2000 miles. The below is pedantic in places but my summary is overall I do enjoy and like the car. Short review; Great economy vs the MG4. Nice to drive some MG4 bugs/quirks remain in the software. Longer review; Economy is at least 5% better per Kwh...

It's a wee bit simplistic but a good way to explain how Regen works in your car.

Sometimes (usually first drive of the day) when I select high regen nothing seems to happen - we carry on down the road as if in low regen. It's quite disconcerting. Eventually the high regen will work as expected - sometimes the high regen seems to work at a stronger level than others. Happy to...

Hi, Just a community query on those who have the Trophy. For me regen settings reset every time I get in the car which isn’t the same as MG4. MG UK have ‘internally confirmed’ the trophy should be able to remember your regen settings. My sales guy says it resets on his car so I am looking for...

Hello all, I’m new to this forum although since I collected my new MG3 hybrid I’ve read some interesting articles here. One of which I believe was never definitely answered and that is when using regen3 the car slows rapidly enough to warrant the illumination of the brake lights. The answer was...

Further to past discussions about brake lights coming on under Regen braking: I was following a Skoda EV yesterday and I’m pretty sure that only his two outer brake lights were flashing off and on as he lifted his foot, then accelerated. Coming to a complete stop at traffic lights, all the...

(Quite Long, Dont Read if you are time poor) Simple statement really and to be honest, I'm not sure that I really subscribed to it. But let me tell you....I do now. (Probably) I know this had been touched on in various threads but thought I would start a dedicated discussion. (Mod, please...

I've owned my MG4 for over a year and had always previously set the regen braking at the lowest level - 1. I don't like the highest setting, especially on motorways as the car decelerates rapidly without (I assume?) turning on the brake lights. I've just discovered the adaptive regen setting...

Anyone with original ZS EV had issues with regen not working? Mine has suddenly stopped even when under half a battery

Like some others I run Towing mode all the time, my understanding is that one of its functions is to disable the radar and camera to some degree, in which case when I use A in the regen settings again which I do all the time, how is this operating ? or is it just defaulting to a level 2 regen...

My 2024 SE would not let me set up my normal driving preferences this morning. Which is eco mode with level 3 regen, SOC was 50% and there had been an ice warning from the car, when selecting the level 3 regen setting the car messaged me that full regen was not available ( as if I had 100%soc)...

Hey all, I am struggling to understand how the battery stats add up on the Xpower. To start with the battery is apparently rated at 64kWh (approx 62kWh useable) but yet other Teslas etc get more range on less battery , I understand this could be due to software and efficiency etc and whether...

Having had my car for a few weeks now, I have got used to using the regen in level 3 and really like it, only using my brakes to actually do the final bit of stopping. Does anyone know if the brake lights come on when using the regen to slow down sharply, as I'm conscious that people behind me...

I've finally ordered my Volcano Orange MG4 Trophy LR and after test driving an MG4 this week I have some questions. I think it may be useful to understand the driving style I am coming from as I suspect I will need to change. My former sports car driving self would be surprised to learn that...

Can anyone confirm or deny if the brake lights come on when you take your foot off the gas and it goes into regen?

While driving in Regen 3 mode today l was pipped a couple of times from drivers following me , l presume it’s because my brake lights are not coming on under braking. Does anyone know for certain if they do come on or not please ?

Why is it that when I'm going down hill the regen/watt meter gives a -Kw number, If I step on it it gives a Kw figure, to my remaining braincell that is counter intuitive, it should be +Kw on regen and -Kw on acceleration surely. Also why is the default option on start up Normal and not Eco...

Hi all, I'm having an intermittent problem with the regen setting in that I can't change it. It doesn't matter which driving mode the car is in, or whether it's in Park - it's set to low and I can't change it to any of the other settings, pressing the buttons just doesn't do anything. I can...

Hi having driven my MG3 Trophy for over 1000 miles now and loving it , l sometimes find cars behind close up when l am slowing due to reg braking. Does anyone know if the brake lights operate when the car is slowing ?
