Yes, i was just unsure if you understood that this is exactly what is generating the message. Seems you did then.

Offcourse, but as you can see, the chemistry is not able to source or accept nearly as high amounts of energy when cold, so even at lower than 90% SoC, the battery will struggle to accept, maybe even only 10-20KWh from the motor at full regen braking and that's why it will warn you, that it...

At lower temperature the battery does not lose actual energy, but the car might limit the cars ability to extract all of that energy. I have a friend that is better at explaining it i think :) (The 55KWh was its response to a previous question, not something i just made up myself)...

As others said...To preserve power (TPMS sensors are battery operated) the sensor will only send a signal if the tyre rotates. Last pressure you have in the dash, before driving off, will be from the last drive, where the tyres were probably nice and warm (Friction heats them up, even in cold...

Yes, but when the car does regen braking it actually charges with quite a lot of amps, so if the battery is cold it might now want to accept that many amps. The charge curve indicates that at 90% SoT, under ideal conditions you can only put 20KWh into the battery, so if it is really cold that...

The capacity to store the energy is not the only factor limiting this function. If the battery is cold, it will not be able to accept as much power as when it is at running temperature. So if your battery is pretty cold and the charge is at 90%, it might not be able to accept the current the...

Which module ? The car has so many different modules with it's own software. The only software version you can really get is the infotainment one, it can be found in the settings menu. The rest...Well you need an OBD dongle and ZSe software, but even with that, all yo get is the software...

I have a Tesla also, owned it 2 years 8 months, all updates have been done over the air, have not once had to take it to Tesla to have software done and this is every single module onboard they update so it is totally possible to do the updates over the air. The MG....It gets no updates other...

In Denmark the ZS EV 2.gen is also only rated for 500 kg so unless you have a very small and light caravan, it's probably not going to be an option for you to (legally) tow your caravan. Tow hitch on the 2.gen MG ZS EV is primarily for a small to medium trailer of max 500 kg

Here it was more of a "can" be updated, so technically they did not lie. As always with chinese stuff "CAN be updated via OTA" does not mean "WILL be updated via OTA" Still pretty poor of them, here it was a selling point in the fact that the "Luxury" trim had it, but the "Comfort" trim did...

The version can be different between the the "standard" and "luxury" versions (I think they are labelled differently but the one with and without the sunroof) But no matter what version you have, i think you are right, this car has never seen an actual infotainment update. (Probably no update...

Range is related to how the car was driven in the last X miles. If the previous owner did a lot of motorway driving in the last X miles, the expected range available for a given state of charge will be lower. The "remaining miles" is often, for good reason called the "Guess-O-Meter"

Was this DC chargers ? The 22KW sounds a lot like what we have here in Denmark for AC Destinations chargers. 3 phase 32A Very few cars accept more than 11KW on these though, but that's due to the onboard charger not being able to do more. Most domestic households only have 3 phase 16A, so...

Does these free DC chargers specifically state they can do more than 30KW ? I have read that some places that have free charging puts a time and charge wattage limit on their chargers. Chargers could also be load sharing, if there are more than 1 charger, it might have to share the incoming...

When i bought ours i made a service contract with them, i pay a monthly fee and this then covers the yearly service including all the materials needed to do, what is mentioned in the service book. They also said it would include updating the software, i of course assumed that would mean, they...
