Trip one and two…

ZS EV trophy LR
Does anyone know if there is a way for 'trip one' to not reset itself after an hour or so of not driving and to only reset when I want it to? My only way to keep track of a day's driving if I stop for any length of time (for lunch or visits) is to reset Trip 2. But this is the accumulative total, and I’d like to keep that as it is to see my overall stats.
I had the same in the mark one ZSEV and wondering if I’ve missed something in settings that I could change.

I dont think you can

Trip 1 is "Current trip"
Trip 2 is "Since last reset"

I found that if you stop to charge, the Trip 1 will not reset, even if you leave the car for 1 hour. This was CCS, dont know if it is the same with Type 2 charging though

Thanks, I never found a way of altering it on the mark one but hoped you could. It would make it easier doing mileage for a whole day. Guess I’ll just have to reset the other one, it would just be nice to have a record that lasts over the whole ownership of the car and a daily record.

Not ideal, but you could always use your phone and take a photo of the dash board when you make your first stop ?.
At least by doing this, you will have ALL ( and a lot more ) of the info you need ?.
It will date and time the photo for you, then when you have finished with what you require, you can delete it ?.
Not the best result, but as far as useful info, you have everything !.
Mileage covered, ambient temperature, efficiency, battery percentage remaining at that point if the journey etc etc.

That’s a plan, but knowing me I’d forget!

If its just for mileage, there are quite a few apps for your smartphone that does this.

Typically used by people that need to document mileage and route driven to their work, to get compensation.

I use to do this on a regular basis, when will had the Gen1 ZS EV.
It was our first full EV back in 2019.
We had a PHEV before that.
Less so now, with the second ZS EV LR to be honest.
