My Thailand model X (same as the UK Trophy I believe) was supplied with a dumb 7kW wall charger and the iSmart Android App. Both charger and app seem pretty useless as far as charging management goes as the wall charger needs to be in Bluetooth range and it appears there's no way to schedule...

Several times in the last 6 months or so the car has requested charging connection when 50% or more battery remaining is indicated. More recently (since the start of October) it's gone completely crazy (see the attached pics.) until I accidently let it charge to 100% at the weekend when it...

I've rarely had the opportunity (or motivation) to use ACC but a recent longish trip on fairly fast straightish highways seemed like a good time to try it again. Sadly, despite an OTA firmware update and a 20,000 km service earlier this year I found that it seems incapable of the kind of...

Normal mains supply here in Thailand is 220v 50Hz, but this evening it's down to 214-215v - possibly due to the extensive flooding for the past couple of weeks here in Chiang Mai. The meter by my MG wall charger is showing 215V, 30.9A and a charge rate of 6.5kW See attached picture (the kWh...

Here in Thailand almost every covered car park allows parking at 90 degrees to the marked parking bays, but vehicles must be left in neutral with the handbrake off so the attendants can push them to allow access to the blocked areas. So far I've managed to avoid using these spaces with my MG4...

Car on a flat road stopped as normal with 99% regen and light touch on the brakes to kill the last kph. Now waiting for a minute for the traffic to move so keep the brakes on to stop any creep**. The power meter is showing 3 or 4, sometimes higher, but I have no aircon, lights or anything else...

I don't know if this is the same Wall Charger that comes with the car in other countries, but in Thailand this is the standard 7kW unit supplied and fitted as part of the price. It works OK, although the setup with my MG4 isn't smart enough to allow scheduling or capacity control, which is a...

Today I inadvertently ran the main battery down lower than usual and just now plugged it into our MG wall charger when I got home. The charger reliably provides 7.2Kw when topping up in my usual range of 25 - 75%, but with the battery at 10% it was only working at 2watts. The charging port...

My car: MG4 model X (Thai equivalent to the UK Trophy as far as I can tell). Twice in the last month the main screen in my car has become unresponsive at startup - the first time I abandoned my trip and it was OK the following day, however yesterday, after being left parked for about half an...

I have recently installed a two channel camera system and want to be able to review video on the main screen in the car. Each camera records its own stream and although output from the rear works fine, the front stream doesn't even show thumbnails on the files. I'm guessing the car doesn't...

My car, an MG4 Thailand Model X (equivalent to the UK Trophy) is two months old today and I have had no issues apart from the strange decisions MG opted for in the firmware - the most unforgivable being the need to reset all my driving preferences every time I enter the car. As a birthday...

I have a newish Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra which connects to my MG X (Trophy to those not in Thailand) via a very neat Anytrox Android Auto wireless adaptor which has worked very well in the couple of weeks since I got it. I've recently had a couple of instances where on leaving the car I find...
