Hi,
I have bought MG HS PHEV 15 days ago. I do not understand the driving mode and I do not agree with what a sales person has told me. I found this forum via google and there are some really intelligent answers so I thought this would be the good place to start.
1) as per manual, MG HS is in hybrid mode it drives in both Engine and EV together. Dose it mean battery is giving power to the car but not actually saving any petrol? Like other Hybrid cars it runs on hybrid battery when there is a juice in the a battery.
2) Different mode of battery,
auto , medium and high.
which is the better way to keep the car when you are on the long drive. I have done 400 km and my average consumption was 7.2liter/100km. My car mostly driven on the motorway with average speed of 95kmph and trip average speed was around 70kmph... As per my understanding hybrid should have around 5.0 liter / 100 km due to battery take over wherever possible.
So can someone please explain what is the best mode to drive to reduce the petrol consumption to the hybrid level or it is normal what I am seeing.
This is my first hybrid car so I am not that much use to with it but my friends drive RAV4 hybrid and their average is pretty good.
Thank you,
