Hi Everybody, greetings from Droitwich, Worcs! got our new Trophy on 17/12, which came 96% fully charged, on the whole been really good, seat comfort could be better and drivers seat should really have memory positions for different drivers, but for the money a great car, we only have the home charger at present, our wall charger gets installed on 20/01, know the following this has been posted 100's of times, but just wanted some quick confirmation on what has happened recently, done a 120 mile round trip, and got good consumption, but still learning the car (it had a problem with "transit" mode over the first weekend), charged the car back up to about 85%, which showed a good range, just been doimnga few short runs and lthis week from the projections on the charging it looks as though full charge will only give a range of about 150 miles, although need to confirm this. We use Octopus go for reduced rates from 12:30 to 4:30, never use the peak rates, which to me defeats the purpose especially with other users "hogging" public chargers and really high rates for rapid chargers.
Has anybody else had this problem, or is it something I am doing wrong, its on max regen, normal driving mode, not much heating on, never pre warm the car.
To be honest think we will use the MG4 for runs where I know I can get back without charging enroute, for long runs will use my Alfa Stelvio Diesel, which gives me nearly 50 mpg, as I do not fancy having to recharge two to three times on for example long airport runs.
I'll get some observation s and post some photos
