Decreasing Range of MG4

[decrep]

That one yes but its a rare event. Old dog trying new tricks doesn't work that often

tell me about it!!!!

Something off with those figures? Overall (real world) consumption higher in 77 to be expected due to weight, but for the WLTP breakdown figures, the 51 has the highest consumption.

WLTP is from the manufacturer. Perhaps the LFP battery consumes more energy in WLTP testing (e.g. for cold weather numbers as LFP loses more capacity than NMC in cold conditions)?

The 51 is only 16 kg lighter than the 64.

Another factor would be the higher AC charging efficiency of the 77, being 3-phase 11 kW.

WLTP testing is based on AC charger energy throughput and 11 kW 3-phase is more efficient than single phase charging.

Maybe MG is slightly underselling the WLTP on the 51 so it looks like the LFP battery holds on to the official figure for longer? It would surprise me if they think that much about it, but who knows.
