Hi all, I have been using my 51 kWh MG4 EV Magnify iSmart (I guess the Trophy Standard Range in many countries) for 2 weeks and 1200km in Indonesia and have been loving it so far. I just have several issues, starting with the range.
I believe in the UK the rated WLTP is at 218 miles, which is about 348 km, let's just say it is 350 km. In Indonesia, it is advertised as 425 km, but for the past 2 weeks, combining the remaining range and the distance travelled, it can only achieve about 320 km - 340 km. I live in Jakarta, where the traffic is abysmal, so I can only achieve about 22 km/h (13,75 mph) on average, or 25 km/h (15,625 mph) on a good day. Is the range just due to the bad driving average? Of course, I need to use AC as the weather has been very hot these past months, so I was wondering if the range is not accommodating for the AC as well.
I also have a question about the regen braking. Mine can only start after the battery drops below 48%, so above 48%, the car just coasts if I depress the gas pedal. Is that normal or is there any problem with my car?
Any response is highly appreciated. Thanks for your time!
Note on picture: the remaining range is still in miles even though it says km, I haven't got the time to update the software. It totals for about 321 km.
