The Ultimate MG5 "Real World" Energy Consumption Thread

[davehedgehog31]

Went a big run in my MG5 LR last weekend. This was the rough route:

Left home with a full charge and charged once, for 28 minutes at a Gridserve rapid to 70%. These were the final scores on the doors:

This taking it really easy but not holding anyone up by any means, it wasn't particularly hot or cold outside at any stage so AC or Heater weren't really required much at all. It was also just me in the car.

Good numbers for very late September I thought.

Here is my October figure for my LR. You can tell it's getting colder

Here is the October figure for my wife's SR

Much heating has been used in the 2nd half of the month

My 1st month of my 21plt short range
Journey to and from work once a week mix of normal and motor way driving in Eco and 3 KERs
Take no notice of charge level as I did a 3 hour last week free

I don't have October figures as I had to get a new 12v battery, and the trip meter reset in the process. Normal service will be resumed next month

Too scared to join the 1% club?
I got down to 9% after a drive from Edinburgh to the Midlands in September, but iput that down to good planning rather than cutting it close

This is my wife's MG5 SR figure for November.

 

[Jomarkh]

This is my LR figure for November unfortunately I had the Radio Module Disconnected error again so the garage reset it and logged it. So this is for just over a week

 

[crispyjay]

Started well but cold, damp weather took its toll.

I must be doing something wrong.

This is mostly motorway and A roads in October / November so I guess normal enough

Not on eco or KERS 3

Not on eco or KERS 3

I usually use both but I don't really believe either make a huge difference, the brake pedal uses regen more than brakes anyway and eco mode only reduces the HVAC load a little and softens the accelerator.
