W Which one? I tried that, but clueless & non-committal ... I also did specifically ask about itts exact functions & why the change from the Mk1. "... I can not confirm if the aftermarket antenna works as MG have not tested the aftermarket product. We recommend using the original antenna that...

Indeed, the original logic is backwards ... I've owned a MK1 ZS EV for a couple of years now, just upgraded to the MK2 facelift. KERS is remember wherever it is set & in my case, this has stayed permanently at 3, the maximum regen breaking. The title syas it all "regenerative breaking" meaning...

I'm curious about this too: just awaiting collection of a MK2 Essence after having sold my Mk1. The antenna on the Mk1 was simply a stub, whereas the MK2 has this very long, whippy antenna & I too would have problems parking with this in our under house garage. Specifically: why was it changed...

You don't mention which model: pre 21 Mk1 or 2022 facelift ... In my expereince, the Mk2 has a very different steering feel & so one assumes this has been 'facelifted' as well, whereas the MK1 - potentially problematic - feels far more direct, likely becuase of this mecanical shaft design (Bosch...

Anyone know if the 2022 seats (or front seats at least) are the same as for the ZS EV? If yes, then there is a good range of seat covers available for the ZS on eBay.

Hmm … I too am considering a surveillance cam for my 2022 ZSEV Essence. A couple of conside come to mind having done a little research about this in general (but not specifically for the ZS EV). Would prefer dual front and rear cameras, 4K, good night vision etc. Plenty of those packages about...

Not at all & like many others here. LFP would the current Go-to for performance, safety reliability etc - at least until we see CATL’s sodium batteries in the marketplace. both BYD (brilliant Blade LFPs) & Tesla models with LFPs are crystal clear about all that. The MG approach seems decide...

well, that’s a new one on me: fixed slider on the charge level!? I wonder if iSmart gets around this … the only other possibility then is to schedule for less than 100% how odd, have not seen this reported with any owners here in Australia.

Thanks for this, but it is difficult to navigate because there are no bookmarks. In additon, the question "Can the MG ZS EV SR be charged to 100% regularly without battery degregation issues?" has been raised several times but is as yet unanswered.

Thanks for this, exaclty what I was looking for, but - do you have a link or any emirpical evidence for this 'MG recommendation' for the short range ZS EV? I'm not challenging you & I appreciate your posts, but I cannot see this in the manual nor in the MG site itself. Reason being: I am...

So what about the LFP battery on the new face lift ZS EV short range? Surely the LFP battery can be regularly charged to 100% on a hom 7kw wallbox?

Where is this 'recommendation", exaclty? The short range facelift comes with an LFP battery and so should be able to be charged to 100% on a regular basis (just like the same LFP chemistry in the Atto 3 or the Tesla MY RWD etc). 7Kw home charger. On the long range facelift, sure, this is the...

That's what I'd thought too, given that the battery limit is removed in the short range ... am still to find any empical evidence about this yet, or MG's so-called recommendations ...

And so you regulary charge to 100% Seems that there's differences of opionion as to 'what MG recommends'.

Surely balancing is not required for the short range MG ZS EV facelift, being LFP chemistry & should be able to be charged to 100% on a regular basis (as per, eg, BYD & Tesla short range).

The other way round, surely ...

Being an LFP battery on the short range MG ZS EV facelift, surely this does not need balancing at all? (as per recommendations for other LFP EVs, eg, the Atto 3 or the shorter range Teslas). Seems to be differning opions about this, plus whether on not is is recemmended to regularly charge to...

Have read different opinions from owners on this (& even that MG still recommend 80% for the SR). Referring to home charging here, 7Kw or 11Kw. Whichever: the LFP battery for the SR facelift vs. the NMC battery for the LR. This appears completely consistent for other EVs (with the exception of...

Why did the pigeon cross the road?

Yep, a PITA isn’t it? I’m in Brisbane Australia as well, gen 1 ZS EV, may upgrade to a face lift … but the lack of spare wheel kit in this country!? FWIW, so happens that I have overheard BS from salesperson to elderly couples in both instances - one with a BYD Atto 3 & the other with a Volvo...
