Early considerations about the new MG Urban Comfort Standard range

[RederOr]

It'd be interesting to see the economy for an hour's run at 70mph.

Hi,
Perhaps I can help. I’m quite new in both EV and MG. Picked my Urban on Saturday and on Sunday morning made trip Glasgow to Edinburgh. Not quite 1hr of driving, rather 40’, but kept 70 mph on cruise and approximately 18% of battery gone. As I remember it was showing something like 3.5 m/kWh when I stopped. Today, coming back, stuck in traffic and 4.0 m/kWh.

Which Urban edition?

we need the admins to add the three (soon to be four) variants as separate options in the car profile

Unfortunately that won't be happening mate, we used to have options for different variations when there were only a few MG models, but with so many models and variations available now, we'd need to list 60 or 70 options to cover them all.

As above .. if the original MG4 doesn't have differentiators for the SE SR, SE LR, Trophy LR, Trophy ER and X-Power, why should the new MG4 or the Urban get any special treatment?

We do have an XPower forum. The new MG4 is arguably just a facelift so doesn't need to be separate from the older models. The Urban is a different car on a different platform so having that separate makes sense to me.

Fair point - I forgot about that. But the question was about variants in the Driving section of your profile, not sub-boards in the forum.

Oh I missed that, sorry. Still, I think they should be roughly consistent

From a database perspective that's an irrelevance .. it's only for the UI (to select your option) where it becomes a concern.

the DRL are both front and back

the front indicators are integrated into the DRL at the front.

The dark/light theme does not automatically switch with time of day/lights on.
