Battery charge

[Alan Bartlett]

Hello All, I bought an MG ZS EV in February this year, the 100% charge then produced approximately 185 miles, when the warmer weather came the battery Mileage crept up to 215 miles when 100% charged.
For some reason this in even warmer weather the mileage for 100% charge has dropped down to 178 miles.
Does anyone know the reason why

Al - Just to clarify, do you have the Gen2 face lift model, standard range model I am thinking

The GOM does a calculation on you current and previous driving habits.
Try resetting the trip counters and that will give you the factory GOM once you have charged to 100% and left to battery balance.

How many miles per kWh are you getting? That's a better indicator than the GOM. Just press the left button on the steering wheel once and it will show you.

Yes, I believe I do, it’s a trophy, standard range

I have just turned on and it’s showing 3.5

Ok I will do that after my next trip

The usable capacity of the SR car is 49kWh. When fully charged, multiply by your average miles per kWh. 49 x 3.5 = 171.5 miles.
Exterior temperature, use of heater/air con, speed, and regen opportunities all influence the miles per kWh achievable.
