My situation, FWIW, is as follows:
Took possession of my ZS EV on 23rd November 2020. Was promised by the dealer that all appropriate software updates had been done. On pick up I could tell that Comfort 2 had been done and when I got home I tested charging locked/unlocked and delayed....all worked perfectly.
In the interim, I have driven just over 700 miles with no problem. The range has been between 120 and 130 miles as expected given the winter weather.
I have been following the discussion(s) regarding faulty BMS. Picking up the car towards the end of November I assumed that my range would be affected. So I decided to run a test.
1. Granny charged the car to 100% including equalisation. The equalisation phase took less than an hour. At completion (with HVAC off) the GOM showed :
Normal = 150 miles
Eco = 165 miles
Sport = 142 miles
Electrical = 455 volts
So, looking good (as expected really).
2. Went for an hour's drive. Mostly A roads at between 50 to 60 mph (some done with MG Pilot). Approx 5 mile trip through town at 20 mph.
Mode = Normal
KERS = 3
HVAC = Off
Travelled 44.4 miles.
GOM at completion shows 106.
3.6 miles/KWh.
Electrical = 421 volts
Ambient temperature for journey 7 DegC
So, all looks good to me but a little perplexing. It looks like I have the most recent BMS update but I don't have either symptoms of long equalisation or loss of range.
Any thoughts are most welcome.
