The only way that the range could be extended in my opinion would be to lower the safety margin that's set to protect the HV battery from being dropped to a level that damages it.
I no for a fact that when the ZS EV runs out of power the HV battery is still around 30% charged.
This is programmed in so if the Comfort 2 update has extended the range then it could be "I don't no for fact" that the battery is allowed to drop to a lower state thus giving more range.
What do you think?
This is word for word what we were told the update does.
This new generation of operational strategies include changes to:
Faster system self check when powering ‘ON’
Infotainment volume maintains and restarts at previous volume setting after powering ON/OFF
Auto High Beam system disable option available in menu settings
General warning chime quality improvements and reduced volume
Warning chimes reduced for MG Pilot and Key Reminder
Vehicle temperature and temperature alarm featured in the IPK display
Vehicle range always on display in IPK
Vehicle can be unlocked during A/C charging, when re-locked charging automatically resumes
To reiterate, all MG ZS EV models produced after Mid June 2020 will include the 2nd Generation of Comfort
System Software.
As KasEV said you can see it mentions nothing about increasing range.
