    Percentage battery display

    Not ideal but if you stopped the car…..You could reset the trips, so that the GOM calculation is reset, then look at the range shown and figure it out as a percentage of the 100% range - roughly times it by 1.5 would give you the percentage…… As much as I don’t like the GOM….If you reset the...

    89p for an overnight charge: +41 miles, @ 1.64p per mile.

    Lol standard good old Ohme graph & “smart logic” Forget the cost per mile. Just look how many kWh it actually did and the total price, should work out at your pence per kWh rate.

    Only getting 139 miles on full charge is this normal

    You don't loose voltage with degradation etc. You only loose voltage if not very balanced. And potentially if the car is under any load. After fully charged/balanced, start the car without the brake pedal pressed, then check the voltage.

    Voltage & Battery balance

    You can figure this out pretty easily. The car has officially a 44.5kWh battery, if you're using a 7kW charger, 44.5/7=6.35 hours to fully charge from empty. If you've got 30 miles left then you can guess that's about at about 20% charge currently, so you need to add 80% to fill up - so about 5...

    Gov Grant

    So, just to reiterate the prices. Was: So now the SE customer price becomes £29,495 (£1,000 more) The Trophy customer price becomes £33,495 (£2,500 more) The Trophy connect customer price becomes £33,995 (£2,500 more) (edit) Assuming (big assumption) they drop the prices to 32k max to get the...

    Gov Grant

    Just checked on salary sacrifice scheme we were thinking of getting the new Trophy with, it's gone up about £100 gross a month too :((

    Just read that as well. The gov website I just looked at had the old details on still though https://www.gov.uk/plug-in-car-van-grants

    Vin Numbers for Faulty BMS update identification

    I think you probably know this really, but there is nothing to "recover", you never had the bad BMS so never had a problem. Other than the fully charged voltage being 449 instead of 456 -ish, you won't notice any difference between having the older BMS and the new one (oh, except for regen at...

    Vin Numbers for Faulty BMS update identification

    One thing that I think messes up the trip data is when sitting in the car with it on and not going anywhere, obviously it's using up power.

    First service at 12 months - 7,500km

    I got the same lol!!!

    Clarification - allocation of cars to orders

    I think he said they were not allocated until they were unloaded off of the ship.

    MG ZS EV Facelift - Test drives

    FYI, Regen puts a lot of energy back into the system, I was very surprised. I've several journeys logged using obd2 apps and I think it was over 10% of energy used was from regen.

    BMS and Infotainment versions

    when was yours updated?
  14. JodyS21

    To update or not (BMS)

    I just read earlier, Miles say that he asked MG, and they said the ECUs can be updated OTA too. Obviously we'll have to wait for a while to see that if it is definitely true. (Some things it will always be necessary for a dealer to plug in and do)

    BMS and Infotainment versions

    I meant to check my infotainment version before it went for service too, I never asked and they didn't mention updating it (I've never had a problem with mine). Mine says ZS11_E_EU_NAV_31.07_200425_R I wonder trying to decode the numbers "31.10_21?????" may mean it's version 31/10/2021. Mine...

    Can I streamline my OLD MG ZS EV ?

    I've thought about adding some kind of blanking on the grill for aero. I saw something somewhere on internet where someone had done it. I also think under tray would probably help a bit.

    Problem with MG ZS EV Smartkey Detection;

    I think you've pretty much explained what happened. I had a similar experience a few weeks ago, not had a chance to retest it out etc. I unlocked and put the car into ready mode, put the heating on full, opened the drivers window, got out of the car and closed the door, pressed the drivers lock...

    ZS EV App? It’s probably the only EV without a factional app which is pretty frustrating especially knowing that the Asian market provides one :(

    I don't see how this can be correct, as all UK specs have Over The Air updates available, therefore they must all have a mobile connection.

    MG ZS EV Long Range - Rapid Charging Test - 76kW Peak?

    That's a really good interesting test, thanks Miles. I does raise a lot of questions regarding the battery heater lol!!!!! (I don't expect these to be answered btw!) Doesn't it get warmed up automatically (and indeed cooled) when it is being used. 7kW is one hell of a heater to warm the battery...

    Range drop by a few miles - normal?

    That does normally indicate that the SOH has gone down slightly, but it's happened very soon at 5000 miles, so unlikely. The temperature doesn't usually make any difference to the calculation - as long as you've definitely fully AC charged it and reset the trips, which is sounds like you are...
