    Will the HS PHEV Trophy 2025 precondition via the MG iSmart app in the same way as MG pure electric cars?

    As you have a ZS you are right, but the HS, which is what this forum is about, unfortunately doesn’t. But no matter my driving gloves keep my finger toasty.😉.

    HS PHEV Rear light condensation

    I experienced this with my ZX last year. The condensation was in the light strip in the left-hand mirror dealership rectify this within the warranty. so far touchwood there is no sign of any condensation in any of the lights, in my new HS PHEV🤞

    Help needed re Charging

    Hi Louise. I’m also having trouble deciding exactly what to say. However, I had my HS PHEV for nearly a month, and I use a device known as a granny charger, mine cost £99 rom Amazon. It plugs into a 13amp socket in my garage, I set it to charge at 10 A maximum which is all you can take from a...

    Will the HS PHEV Trophy 2025 precondition via the MG iSmart app in the same way as MG pure electric cars?

    The “deep sleep mode” sounds like a good idea to prevent the 12v battery discharging and preventing starting. However, it appears to me that it happens quite quickly, I generally use the iSmart app every morning, to prevent the car dozing off and to see if the app is reporting -37C. Just to...

    Heated steering wheel

    I have Hybrid+ Trophy (PHEV) and it does not have a heated steering wheel.

    Home wall chargers

    I’m currently with British Gas and on a good single rate tariff, not off peak. BG was going to be more expensive to have off peak. So I did some research and discovered that Octopus were also going to be more expensive. I was advised to wait until April, when the new tariffs will be announced...

    MG HS 2025 PHEV Trophy Edition tips

    Not that I’m an expert, as I’ve only had my hs hybrid for just or 2 weeks. But as far as I can make out the car will limit the charge to slow charging wherever you connect. I’ve got a ‘granny’ charger in my garage, and I put the car on charge when needed. Unlock, open flap, insert plug. Switch...

    ISMART reports bizarre temperatures

    Hi, thanks for the reply. Just wondering if there are any implications, such as if you use iSmart to turn on heating might this affect that?

    ISMART reports bizarre temperatures

    Good afternoon everyone. I previously posted on the ZX forum, but have just bought a HS Trophy, pearlescent white with tan interior, and I’m very pleased with it. Anyway back to the matter in hand. When I check the internal temperature of the car using iSmart in the morning, it shows...

    Virtual pedal boot opening location

    It appears to me that this is an unnecessary feature. The only time that could be of use is if you are carrying more than one shopping bag. If you’re only carrying one, you can push the button under the MG badge, or use your key. If you have a shopping trolley do the same. If you are in the...

    Home wall chargers

    I took delivery of my HS Trophy on the 20th Nov. I researched online, and ended up on Amazon, where I purchased an EV Dance Mode 2 Portable IP66 Charger for £99. Used it at night, and it performed perfectly, you can select 4, 6, or 10 Amp charging, of course the lower the amperage, the longer...

    75reg Carpet mat included?

    Got my HS Trophy on 20/Nov and was delighted to discover the MG mats were in the car. Overall an excellent experience from Birchwood MG in Eastbourne.

    Thoughts on warning noises

    I’m currently driving a ZS, but collecting a new HS Trophy next week. I tend to turn of the bongs and rely on the flashing speed limit on the dash. I must say that with increasing proliferation of 20mph speed limits, I would feel very stupid if I got done doing 25mph, when my car is equipped to...

    Dash Cam for 2025 HS PHEV?

    I think I must be missing something, my HS has a USB socket on the left hand side of the central housing at the top middle of the windscreen. This is powered when the ignition is on. Of course if you need front and back cameras and a permanent supply, this would not be suitable.

    PHEV heated steering wheel

    Agreed but 25 quid against a car costing thousands.

    3 week 1100k review

    Hi Maliki. An excellent synopsis, which aligns with my overall experience. I suppose I expected the ZS hybrid+to provide much the same driving experience, as a non hybrid car. The reality is that a hybrid provides a very different experience, and this takes a bit of getting used to. However...

    MG ZS+ 1.5 Hybrid 2025

    The reason I replied to you, was because you said, “ I don’t think the battery power is involved, just the petrol engine.” in your response. If you do some research, you will discover that the main source of energy, for acceleration and high speed e.g. 112 km/h (70mph) will be the battery. If...

    MG UK Customer Service response to high RPM

    Agreed, however I think software update PD052 was issued to overcome the “loss of power” problem, although I have never experienced it. PD052 changes the way the/my hybrid system works. If anything it revs more, but this is to ensure the battery capacity never drops below 30%, and therefore...
