If only! Some 22kW street chargers don't accept contactless (Believ in Ealing last time I used them) There's a danger that a debit card may not work because the bank declines the transaction. I've had that problem with a credit card. Using an app or Electroverse card usually works because the...

The personal profile now shows a 'Secondary Account ' which shows 'no data'. Any idea what this for? The manual is no help, it's not been updated 🙄

Our MG4 Trophy's finance contract finishes in September and we have the opportunity to give it back and are wondering about a change. However, we like the way the car handles and soaks up potholes. Plus there is the 360 degree view and free wireless hot-spot and it looks good - no slab front...

The interior heating/air conditioning will probably take more kWh in the winter than summer, unless it's very hot.

If you are storing a car for long periods, you will need to consider care of the tyres in order to avoid flat spots.

Only when my Trophy is upgraded. It didn't happen at the last service in August. Has much changed with the new updates?

Depending on your car, you may only get a maximum of 7kW AC due to the electrical circuit on board. If you want a fast charge you will need to use a DC charger. My guide may help https://www.mgevs.com/attachments/mg4-trophy-guide-v2-0-pdf.22974/

You might be better off using an Octopus Electroverse card.

As far as I understand, the 2.5mm² cable is a 30A ring main cable. The 1.5mm should be protected by a 13A fuse. 2.5mm² cable may not fit some of the plugs and sockets.

You need a high speed lead. That is one which does not have a white insert in the USB-A plug. https://bloggerpilot.com/en/usb-color-codes/

My Trophy only came with a granny lead. Some reports say leased cars also come with a type 2. Have the sales team specified a type 2 and granny lead in writing? I think the Trophy will only charge at 7kW although the extended range model may be different.

Stopped at the new EVpoint rapid chargers at Uttoxeter Services (just off the A50). They are Tesla chargers and appear on the Tesla app as a lock and are listed as 'Private'. They are open to all cars. The lead is short, so you need to back up close with an MG4, and the plug needs a good tug to...

I'm not quite sure at what stage of the setting up procedure you need the bind button. Chapter 12 of my guide may MG4 Trophy - a Guide

You, or your landlord, only need to invest in a 7kW charger if you use the the car such that the granny charger is not fast enough to give an adequate battery SoC (state of charge) by the time you want the car. Very approximately, a 7kW dedicated charger will charge 3 times faster than a...

The connection problem may be solved by a software update. It may be worth checking with your dealer.

We've had a tethered Hypervolt fitted which should, by the month-end, work with Octopus tariffs. The electrician was impressed with it and customer service seems good. It may be worth seeing if the granny charger fulfills your needs before ordering a fast charger.

I used a granny charger for over 10 hours continuously when on holiday, with permission from the owner. It was a modern house and no problems. A 3kW heater takes as much current as a granny charger and the house electrics should cope with that.
