Anywhere except super low or 100%. 50-80% is current practice.

Same car, I recently had my 2022 MG ZS EV in for its first '3k courtesy service' (yes, does come as an incentive with some dealerships). In doing so, they automatically applied all of the most recent sw update campaigns: CAMPAIGN CMGZSEVCCU - CCU CONTROL MODULE PROGRAMMING CAMPAIGN CMGZSEVEVCC...

Yes, google it or search the forum here. There's a bizillion posts on this.

Google it, but conventional wisdom for ANY EV says: not fully charged nor super low, ie, between 50-80%

Sure, that's a well publicised known problem & was especially apparent in the gen 1 ZS EV (which I owned for a bit, then traded up to a gen 2 where the problem never appeared). A problem with the Bosch steering column, but when I took my gen 1 to the service centre, rather than replacing the...

Seems within reason as per EV Database. Nothing new here really, the WLTP range on ALL EVs can vary enrmously depeding on conditions. EV Database is worth a look & it outlines some of these parameters. Real Range between 160 - 345 mi City - Cold Weather 230 mi Highway - Cold Weather 160 mi...

Maxxis Bravos, what the ZS EV now ships with. I'do go with a new set all round.

Same here in Australia, noticed the change from Michelin when I bought my car & queried the dealership who were still test driving ZS EVs with the Micehlins at the time. They were unaware of the new tyres on new cars at the time. I agree, these are a very good tyre so far & would certainly be...

The OP dosen't provide much specific information: here I'm assuming a gen 1 ZS EV and charging at home on 7kW AC charger? (not granny, surely?) No, had no problems on a gen 1 I owned for a few years; Always followed the 80% charge rule for NMC battery chemistry, then charged to 100% with...

None of those apply to the gen 1 & granny charger. Use a wall socket timer, eg: https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=wall+timer+plug&crid=2IU1U0Z4J2YHR&sprefix=wall+timer%2Caps%2C332&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_3_10

Correct, this only came with the gen 2 face lift - that's both: no iSmart app support and no on-board scheduled charging. I've owned the gen 1 (& now the gen 2). The only way to scheule charging on the gen 1 is via the software that might be provided with your particular home charger brand. We...

Not a lot to do really, depending on your preferences (& the battery chemistry of your car): *Swipe left on the infotainment screen to see all the preferences & set how you like, eg: Turn off Lane Keeping Assist (LKA); ditto all the warning beeps and bongs. * This bit is very useful at the time...

Ditto, zero issues for me with both gen 1 and now gen 2 ZS EV. Equally amazed with these kinds of social media fora, so full of whinging, disinformation and personal venting. If & when some of these defects do occur, surely that should be taken up with a service centre vs. venting unnecessary...

BS

Maybe shop around then? There's plenty of those getting about.

Sure, there's more yet to do with the (new) MSP platform and as currently only used in the MG4. https://topelectricsuv.com/news/mg/next-gen-mg-zs-ev-details/

No idea,I only use DAB.

Totally agree about Faraday pouches, these have been brilliant,inexpensive & convenient...

Gee, so you've owned all those, eh?

Aside from the fact that there may be a mechanical fault in some instances, I found that on both the gen 1 and the gen 2 ZS EVs, that the dooor handles could stick or stick open when there was bad weather & a lot of rain. In any case, the preferred solution is Silicone spray...
