Further to past discussions about brake lights coming on under Regen braking:
I was following a Skoda EV yesterday and I’m pretty sure that only his two outer brake lights were flashing off and on as he lifted his foot, then accelerated. Coming to a complete stop at traffic lights, all the lights came on, the two outers as before, plus the high centre light. I’m wondering if this is the same with the MG4?
 
The brake lights come on when regen level gets to about 7%. They are either on or off (no flashing AFAIK). They stay on when in auto-hold so at night time I pull up the Parking Brake switch (not the dial) to make them go off. The car stays in D so you can just drive off again by pressing the accelerator.
 
Thanks TerryN - just to point out that my question was essentially ‘which lights come on, just outlyers or all three?’. I know the principle. Should have been clearer.
