On Friday morning had to drive to Berkshire for a family wedding so charged my facelifted MG5 Trophy to full on Thursday night and on Friday morning it was showing see picture
This was at switch on so comfort mode regen 2 which is the default mode switching to eco mode took this to 302 miles
So mainly motorway driving stop at Banbury after 139 miles of 63 ish MPH as a maximum but spells of 50MPH on M6 for road works so the average was around 57MPH on arrival at Banbury had 41% of battery remaining so the reason for stopping was to attempt a charge on a Tesla supercharger as they are open to no Tesla there but no joy at all car not recognised tried every way I could but would not let me charge while there another MG5 owner arrived in the non facelifted excite and he couldn’t get a charge as well, so give up had a bite to eat in the M&S cafe and moved to another site around 1/2 miles down the road and just topped up with around 20% to 60kw from an instatvolt unit but even there the first 2 I tried refused to charge never had that before with instatvolt 3rd one was fine but there are I think 24 to go at so no problem.
So continued our journey on the M40 again at the 63mph and on arrival I had 29% left so would have made it without the top up but would have only had around 9% left instead of 29% so in conclusion 90% did around 210miles most of the way it was showing around 3.9 MPKW which increased to 4.1 after we left the motorway the last 10 miles or so being on A roads around 50mph where possible.
So I think the car live up well to its predicted range of around 230 miles at these kind of speeds.
Used the heater part of the journey as it was only around 8/9 degrees to start with.
