    MG4 would seem to have made it through a flooded ford

    lol it was funny to see it floating and still pushing forward... reminds me of dogs when they jump into the pool and start doing that doggy slowly swimming.... I wouldn't dive in that deep water. I wonder how did it perform AFTER recording this video though... Hmm wouldn't this be a futuristic...

    MG4 EV vs Massive Floods...?

    this is true - the car doesn't use air to ventilate - BUT... where does the air conditioner gets air from? Also, I always avoid floods but my city is not something you can just avoid getting into these floods. There are some urban streets that get's flooded for 1 or 2 blocks and there's no way...

    Traffic Lights - Auto Hold or Neutral?

    Hmm ok but... Uhm... In practical day use? For example, i go to my daughter's school and there's a drive-by line where we stop, drop them off and continue. Short period of waiting. I tried to stop and use neutral with EPB, Opened door and it gave me a warning (and a bit of shaky movement...

    Traffic Lights - Auto Hold or Neutral?

    On common automatic transmission, and stopping at traffic red lights ive heard 2 versions... 1) change to Neutral to wait for green lights so that the transmission is not trying to push forward unnecessarily. 2) stay in Drive and step on the brake. So you keep the transmission in place and...

    MG4 EV vs Massive Floods...?

    Ok guys, here's a serious question. Electricity and water. Not a good combo. And unluckily i live in a city where drainage system sucks real bad. Guayaquil, Ecuador, South America. Now this doesnt happen every year in every corner. But this continues to happen every rain season (january...

    Why Everytime I Start... Settings Reset? Driving + Regenerative Mode

    In my case, I'm fine with Regenerative and Drive mode going back to default - press Star and make them as I want once. The real issue I'm facing after a few days riding this car... Its that Custom is not saving Pedal Force setting. I set it to Comfort and it always resets to Normal... (By...

    Balance Charging - a few questions

    So i leave it plugged in - with the trickle charging? I think it requires 1 hour or so until it finishes... After that - right? Well, reconnecting didnt work now. I plugged it again and says charge complete. So next time... Leave it on to see what happens. Does it stop automatically? Or i...

    Balance Charging - a few questions

    How do you guys start the balancing of the cells? I have a NCM battery 64kWh and this is my 2nd charge after getting this car... I figured...this car battery is new. It hasn't been used or charged before. So maybe it needs "balancing" So today it went from 28% to 100%... And i got to be sit...

    64kWh Battery - 20 to 80% is the only safe way to charge?

    I don't have access to the app in this country and the dealership confirmed that. They plan to enable it but need some "homologation" supposedly... So let me get this clear. That ice cube tray analogy made me get it. This ONLY occurs when we let it go 100% and let it continue for a while? Ive...

    New Mg4 EV Owner From Ecuador & Mods To Come :)

    Wow this is amazing. Your blue car is what i wanted but they never brought this color to my country... So meh. Didnt want red, found the other colors semi boring. And i cant go wrong with black - i love blackish ambients. So yeah if i had a blue exterior, a clear interior looks great (like...

    64kWh Battery - 20 to 80% is the only safe way to charge?

    "let it sit there till it has finished balancing" Wait.. is this like... "The gas gun stops automatically. And you can still pour additional gas to top it out" Similar to that? Im confused. Is there a video that explains this behavior with illustrations? I dont remember reading this in the...

    64kWh Battery - 20 to 80% is the only safe way to charge?

    Very informative. Summary: NMC can be charged to 100% as needed only if you run it next day (dont leave it like that for months) and let it drop to 20% or 50%. Never charge and stay between 80 - 100% Its best to run 80% to 20% to get the most miles out of NMC batteries (and lasting the most...
