I suppose it's articles like this that make people think about heat pumps, but as with most things it is how an individual car will be used that will determine how much value they add. https://www.electriccarscheme.com/blog/electric-cars-with-heat-pump

Not sure if you have seen this...

Not had any issues this week. Only time I have a problem is if the car has not been used for more than 24 hours and goes into deep sleep mode, but that can be cured with an unlock and lock from the key fob from inside the house.

You will also notice that if you are on the MG Pilot screens not all of the sensor systems activate with just a bum on seat, you have to activate the brake pedal to turn everything on. For example you cannot disable the lane keep assist until the brake pedal has been pressed. I guess if you...

I guess the other thing will have an impact are improvements in energy density. If you can halve the battery weight and store the same amount of energy you will improve efficiency.

The other thing you need to know is that as soon as you turn on pre conditioning (using the iSmart app) the car will light up like a Christmas tree. So if a car with lights on is an issue this may be a problem.

Last time I was SoLR my account was in the middle of a disputed read process and the new supplier had to sort that out for me before I could get anything like actual usage billed. The administrator will be in control of sending account information to the new supplier (and there is a complaints...

In theory this would be paying for a service, you pay for a certain quality of service, so what minimum levels of service would you expect for your money? Better quality road surfaces The ability to travel at the max speed for the road for a majority of the trip Reduction in other payments that...

You also use it to put the wipers into the maintenance position so you can lift them when cleaning the car or replacing the wiper blades

Moved to 3.1.2 when it was released and have been through each update since 2023 still never seen a window warning, wonder if it is region specific like some of the other features.

For the XPower vibration, changing the tyre pressures to slightly higher than recommended and putting a few thousand miles of wear on the tyres can help to reduce the vibration
