Looks like there is a lot of misunderstanding and confusion. Here is one example that might help clarify it. If someone decides to try out the traffic jam assist or adaptive cruise control and drives on a road. The vehicle ahead stops and the driver keeps an eye on the MG Pilot to see if it...

Not at all. It was done in an absolutely safe manner. As I explained, instead of braking and coasting from a longer distance, I behaved like a more aggressive driver and applied brakes a little later but well within the margin of safety. When I said I pretended to crash into parked cars, please...

That is a good idea. First I was trying to understand how MG has configured the system as they didn’t seem to understand its full characteristics. They kept talking about the MG Pilot and in the two test drives I took, it only seemed to work when the Pilot was engaged. That’s why I posted this...

I see. So now you want to resort to blatant racism and some sort of assumed superiority. By this logic, I should look at your location and then generalise all ills found in the UK and assume that you would also engage in them. There are good and bad drivers everywhere. If I were a bad driver as...

I don’t see why you are taking this high handed approach. There was absolutely nothing dangerous in what I did. Normally, I am a very safe driver and thus I keep a good amount of distance between myself and the vehicle in front. Due to defensive driving and the effort to maximise range on an EV...

Without the MG pilot engaged?

I am not sure what my location has to do with it. I just wanted to see if the system actually works and how good it is. For example, would it warn me when I was xx feet away and so on. However it never worked when the MG Pilot was off. That's why I posed the question to see if it only works when...

Obviously I was prepared to brake and did apply brakes safely. I tried to close the distance to the bare minimum possible without braking to see if the system would respond. It wasn't unsafe as I was paying complete attention and was ready to brake and obviously did successfully brake each time

I have tired this in several vehicles and strangely, none of them detects any vehicle or obstacle in the front unless you are using the MG Pilot. If you have it set on adaptive cruise via the Pilot, it detects vehicles in the front and stops and brakes when needed. During this time it also...

I tried setting it to Thailand but it made no difference. Actually you can scroll it and it has every country listed. By the way what are these driving modes 1 and 2? I also see your car is on something called “TAS”, shown as TJAS on my translation and not on LDWS which I assume is Lane...

One of the options has three choices. Namely ABS+EBD, ESP+EBD and ESP mode. My car was in the ABS+EBD mode. Isn’t it better to choose ESP?

Routinely get way over 200 miles. Around 250 to 275 is quite normal. This is with aircon. Hoping for even better performance during the winter months when there would be no aircon usage NB winter is relatively mild for us.

Most experts and publications recommended not charging the EV battery beyond 80%. They also advise keeping it between 30 to 80 percent as far as possible. Now since we know from OBD2 scans that the ZS has a built in buffer of around 7 to 8% and probably has a similar buffer on the low side, do...

Mine always shows 92.3% on OBD when the car shows it as 100% charged.

Which app are you using?

My DTE range keeps improving as I keep driving. 437km is around 275 miles.

This is 58kms but hopefully will qualify!

50 mph was the average speed. Sometimes I was at 60 as well but mostly closer to and sometimes below 50 due to slowdowns. A lot of people in India repot similar or even better range. I think the temperature, no usage of heating and slower speeds make a difference. Average speed on UK motorways...

As you stated correctly, it is only marketing hype. There is no difference in the current model vs the previous one in regards to the battery or its range. Only the ground clearance was increased. In India, a government body named ARAI tests all vehicles for mileage and the manufacturers are...
