    What's all this about solid state batteries in the MG4?

    Exactly right, a PCP on ex-demo is the best way forward, just what I've done.

    The Cyberster and the EU's punitive tariffs

    Exactly right. You only have to look at the state of Germany right now and VW, it’s very very serious for them, but also Porsche, BMW, Audi. They will be eliminated from the Chinese market completely. MG is doing great, new and refreshed models on the way including rumoured semi solid state...

    Xpower Battery Specs, Economy and Regen question

    Xpower needs a long range option! The heat pump is also not efficient. Various changes will improves range / efficiency for next version, including potentially semi solid state battery.

    No to One Pedal driving

    At slow speeds you just put traffic jam assist on. There is no benefit to creep mode, except possibly reverse, where OPD if enabled, is not active (it should be). OPD is always easier to drive / modulate speed rather than require cognitive load in using the brake. As Tesla / Musk correctly says...

    Anyone wash their car today? ?

    You’re hired for cleaning, how much you charge ?

    Have your say on future MGEVs Podcasts

    Yea and add charging in there. Why for example does OPD sometimes fail to enable on 90% SOC with spurious low kinetic energy warning.

    SAIC in trouble? Others are growing, SAIC continues to decline.

    Actually it is good enough in terms of functional enough for all users. Objectively, yes UI could be better and certainly faster, more shortcuts and refined behaviour, but plenty good enough. Ultimately it drives well.

    How come I can remote check car status?

    The recent 2.0.7 version did get more reliable but it still not 100% and you would not want to rely on it as digital key!

    MG iSMART app / car connectivity

    It would not make sense for the core App workings to be different, ie using the same APIs. Maybe just the UI / skin is different for EU.

    How come I can remote check car status?

    I’m sure they know it and next gen vehicle software will be better.

    How come I can remote check car status?

    Why is the SAIC infrastructure so slow!? The mobile App only even became remotely reliable with the last version 5/6 weeks ago. There are only around a dozen core data points the App shows, SOC and vehicle status screen items. The car should push changes to the cloud, each of which is a few...

    Should I get a Xpower

    Yeah, the dealer (salesman) I purchased ex demo Xpower from was very poor, not doing updates as requested. Their technician was actually very good and embarrassed about their lousy comms. How my local dealer in Bognor, Richmond group was very good. Everyone considering a purchase (of anything)...

    If you mean Safety - vehicle power, it does leave it on including driver screen. Both should go off.

    MG4 X-Power Orders & Delivery

    Green looks fantastic, white & blue also good, so don’t change. And after a few months you won’t worry about someone dinging it, but you find yourself parking with max space around you!

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    I wonder if there maybe related modules that need updating also. Is it the tech email address used to feedback to MG? I'd like to see OPD added to the dropdown driving menu, which really should be the default mode. Infotainment should wake from sleep for faster access, rather than 10-15sec boot...

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    I had BT issues pre R59, but that is all fine now, although my wireless charger does not work after R59 update (it did before, but I don't need it) so I just use wired CarPlay. Can't be sure if this is hardware or software related, but will raise it. Also, OPD is the most effective & easy...

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    What issues are you having with R59? Siasek YouTube channel review suggested a shortcut key bug. Bear in mind all modules would need to have been updated also to provide hardware changes. Where did you hear about an R63 version? We all know about the ridiculous and customer antagonising...

    Should I get a Xpower

    Yes, that's not good. We can only hope that situation improves as we / dealers give feedback, but more likely, intense competition forces them to improve. I guess with anything expensive, significant research is required beforehand.
