If it had just been that charger, and just been my car that had been affected then I'd have thought so too, but I have subsequently tested on many other chargers and have seen reports of other owners experiencing the same thing. Things have improved a bit with BMS updates, and temperature undeniably is a major factor, but unless extraordinary steps are taken to prepare the car by warming the battery and getting the SoC down to a low single figure value before starting, I simply don't believe that the advertised charge rates for the Mk 1 ZS can be achieved in normal use.
But we are getting distracted again. This thread is not about what charge rates I or other people can get while charging other vehicles, it is about obtaining genuine useful metrics regarding the realistic speed of charge of an MG4. Not the peak charge rate possible or what is possible under a very particular circumstances only, but how long it takes in the real world to add an appreciable level of charge.
Let's not introduce external factors like performance of the charger. Let's find a good charger, prove performance by charging a different car then generate a realistic charge profile. Eventually the likes of Tesla Bjorn will do this sort of testing but in the meantime why don't manufacturers or independent agencies like the WLTP labs release it?
The crazy thing is that it is highly likely that the MG4 will perform brilliantly and exceed our expectations, but once bitten......
