Tested this at the weekend, was on apple carplay / navigation, said hi mg (voice answered and went to mg screen) raise temperature by 1 degree, temp was raised by 1 degree and screen went back to apple carplay / navigation without touching anything?
My first EV was a 22kW Zoe, did just under 100 miles in the summer with a good tail wind :). Our MG4 LR can get 230 average at 100% in the summer. I do not suffer from range anxiety.
Now all that needs doing is for some talented person to get into file and copy one of the voice commands and update to include voice command that turns on/off LKA :)
It is increasingly looking like the West is taking steps to close down cheap imports from China etc by raising import taxes. The days of cheap elecric vehicles may well be on the way out, not sure if protecting companies in this way is a good long term move, although jobs and skills do need to...

Given you already have a bike, perhaps an electric kit for it would be a better, lighter (and cheaper) solution? They will even fit it for you the next time you are down South (Winchester don't you know)...

Looks great, I wonder if we can fit to the MG4 (once they approve roof rails :cautious:). Having it on the roof with acces via ladder will be really handy once they get round to releasing the wolves in Scotland :sneaky::unsure:
Thanks all
It is a very valuable and helpfull dicussion for me (and others), I have about a 9 months to a year before I need to make a decision. I would love to access also the car battery for house, but following other discussions this just might be a step to far.
