    Vandalised chargers

    If they sited the chargers in well lit areas that could easily be seen and had CCTV there might be fewer stolen cables.

    Pay per mile. Another blow for EV drivers

    It is also reported that nearly half of drivers support pay per mile. Not half of EV drivers but all drivers, most of whom think as they don't own an EV it won't affect them, and if it did it would replace VED. I think IF it does happen and is successful it will be expanded to all vehicles and...

    MG EV Prices

    They are probably selling them cheap to flood the market of people looking for a SUV EV to stop the new importers of SUVs (Jaecoo, Leapmotor, XPeng etc.) getting a foothold especially as they are available straight away.

    MG EV Prices

    No it's not. That's what I paid for mine in Trophy spec from Stoneacre Derby a few months ago. In fact they registered it in their name when I ordered it and changed it into my name a couple of days later. I had the choice of any colour I wanted at no extra cost.

    Will the MGS5 get OTA updates?

    For those of you who still wish for OTA updates VW has just bricked a number of ID Buzzs and they are having to be taken to their dealers to be reset.

    Battery balancing. No

    No, but I know batteries need balancing and as @LenEV2016 says you have no idea when the batteries were made or how long the car has sat in the docks and by doing the 100% balance charge more or less as soon as I've got the car I know when it was last done so know when it needs doing again.

    MG S5 charging with Ohme Pro I can’t plug and go

    Also check you haven't got a charging schedule set in the car / app and that the % to charge to is set above the actual charge in the car.

    USB Recognition Failed

    USB Recognition Failed

    I take that to mean you have nothing plugged into any of the USB sockets? No sat-nav, phone or USB stick?

    Battery balancing. No

    I did my first 100% balance charge with 50 miles on the clock and it took over 2 hours to complete on a 7.5kW home charger.

    Battery balancing. No

    I think my first balance charge took over two hours before my Zappi charger showed that the car wasn't drawing any charge.

    Pay per mile. Another blow for EV drivers

    I think the Conservative shadow chancellor sums it up by saying "If you own it, Labour will tax it"
