    32 miles on battery or more

    Batteries degrade when using. Going from 32 miles to 31 miles range is normal. nothing wrong with it. My 2023 phev started off at 62 kms ev range, now its at 61kms ev range so its dropped 1km in 2.5 years, Pretty good statistic, and it gets charged to full everyday :)

    Why no downloadable manual for HS PHEV?

    We use google maps plugged into android auto in the usb port. The navigation on the car is missing a lot of streets we found. Google maps is up to date :)

    Gas problems

    Have you got the auto brake turned on ? If you have it sounds like its not releasing fast, I had a similar problem and I turned mine off and just drive it like a normal car.

    Windows misting in 2025 model HS PHEV

    try setting your temp to 19, with air from the outsde and not on auto it made a difference in mine even though its a 2023 model. I leave it on 19 all year round.

    Windows misting in 2025 model HS PHEV

    Mine is a 2023 phev and I leave my temperature on 19 deg aircon all year round and the air coming in from outside on rainy days. If no rain I just leave it on normal recirc, aircon demists the window a lot better than heat, If it mists up when starting driving I just push the piano demist button...

    Are "self charging hybrids" more economical?

    We have a 2023 MG HS PHEV and a 2010 Toyota Prius. The PHEV averages in between fillups 0.8 litres per 100kms. The Prius hybrid averages 6.5 litres per 100kms. Both are used around town and out of town trips. If we do just around town running using the 63km electric range the phev gets down to...

    Charge port lock stuck

    Is this the plug from the supplied MG charger with the car or a 3rd party plug ?

    Engine light on

    yes very true, the reason why I took the cap off for 10 mins as I had only just filled it up and overfilled it slightly (went past the first cutout ) it was strange though as once the breakdown callout cleared the codes, I drove home the rest of the way with no errors. then when I started it...

    Oxygen sensor

    I had that error come up as well on the way back from a trip. I called out the breakdown service and he checked on his diagnostic and said it was the lambda sensor, he couldnt see anything else wrong and the car was driving ok so he cleared the error so i could dfrive the 100kms home. The error...

    Residual value MG EHS Phev

    Try setting it to outside air instead of recirculated air. There is also a setting to windscreen with internal car in the heater settings. It defaults to auto.

    Engine light on

    The AA breakdown service I called out said it was the lambda sensor came up on his display as well. It may have been to full as I had just filled up and went past the first shutoff stop with petrol 30 mins before as when I left the cap off for 10 mins it cleared, which was strange and it hasn't...

    3rd party charging cable

    you could try a heavy duty extension cord plugged into the mg supplied charger ? Mine is too far away as well so I use a short ext cord plugged into a WIFI plug on the wall so I can schedule start and finish times.

    Engine light on

    Had my mg phev back in the dealer today. They couldn't find any error codes ? the AA breakdown tech cleared the error so I could drive home, it musnt have a log saved of errors even though the light came on again the next day ? They did some updates of engine management software and told me to...
