One pedal driving survey

[ukflyer]

I want to try to get MG UK to incorporate one pedal driving into the MY22 cars, but need to show that it is wanted by a large enough group to try to get them to do so.

I've put not, one of my perceived things is if you use one pedal driving all the time the brakes eventually cease up through lack of us, so if you use the brakes a little and often then this is then not an issue.

Good luck with that, have you ever had a reason to speak to MG UK customer service yet, useless and uninterested spring to mind

What's that got to do with one pedal driving?!

It’s the standard response around here to most threads. Quickly getting used to it…..

 

[bowfer]

Why would anyone care if it’s added if they’ve no intention of using it themselves..?

 

[JonnyG]

I've put yes ! The brake issue is easily solved by doing some hardish braking from high speed around once a week (when safe of course!).

The poster said he is garnering interest to go to MG to try and get them to install it on phase 1 cars, seems obvious to me and factually MG UK don't give a toss so pretty relevant

You wanting one of my chips to go with your tissue?

Go on then - give me one of your chips that helps with the repetitive boring clique.

Never been in a clique before who are the other members, curious to know who my special pals are

At least you acknowledge you are repetitive and boring. Progress.

Most manufacturers recommend using the actual brakes daily to prevent a possible seize up. In the Audi e-tron I currently drive, most mornings (especially after rain when the discs are discoloured) I use the actual brakes for the first few stops to clean them off and then use high regen. The Audi won't come to a complete stop, but from what I've seen the OPD in the MG4 will bring it to a halt.

I think most one pedal driving modes blend friction brakes with regen as you come to a stop anyway

Is it yet known whether MY22 cars can be upgraded? I sold my MG4 recently but had a helpful dealer. MG on the other hand could not have been less helpful, in fact being actively unhelpful, many owner will corroborate this.

Have you asked your dealer to find out if MY22 cars can be updated? What was the response?

My dealer was very helpful and had asked the question when I last enquired 4 weeks ago and he said no information was available then either way. Might be possible, might not was the response, waiting for update….

Yes, ISTR reading somewhere that regen doesn't work under 5mph anyway.

I would have thought the friction brakes are applied mechanically via the use of the brake pedal. Do you have a source info link?

 

[tsedge]

I voted no as I don't like one pedal driving and any update on my car could change something else that I wouldn't want changed, plus the option was "No, I'm happy without it", which I am.

 

[Rolfe]

I don't mind if they add it, but I don't care. I'm perfectly happy with the car crawling.

Don't mind the crawling on mine, used to it from my dsg VW, so no change in driving style required
