LFP Responsible for poor SR Winter performance

[Bodgerx]

Regular forum members may remember my complaints about my SR's terrible winter range Vs something like my previous Hyundai did winter Vs summer.

I'm wondering if LR owners aren't seeing as much as a dramatic difference as they have cobalt in their batteries.

Just starting to wonder if MG should be bothering with LFP batteries in colder climate markets.

Very interesting video comparing different battery chemistry types !.

Summer (or at least from Mid August) range was 260-280, now it’s about 225.

22 reg ZS SR here. Got 180 miles out on a trip in December, just me in the car doing a steady 55mph, I was very impressed. Stopped to charge at 3%, no prior stops. Could've got to my destination at 1% but desperate for a wee!

Yet to get anywhere near that since owning from November.

Best is 155.
