Is this the software update we have been waiting for....

Just watched this review of the new MGS5 and it looks like MG have implemented a personal setting feature that lets you store the MG Pilot settings for single touch recall. I guess the question is will this be available on older MG4 platform cars or only the new MGS5 and new MG4 when it arrives?

I'd guess it will require the updated hardware from the S5, so current MG4s won't get it.

Agreed that this is for the new cars only, possibly it will come to the 4 when it has a facelift, but I wouldn't hold your breath. Very much doubt it will be a retro-fit to older cars.

This is still less convenient for me than a simple button push (a la Renault), but it would be a great improvement. I'm actually driving around now with zero pre-flight changes, with the new LKA/ELK patches and the car is fine, so I am not sure I would be using it much - except that new cars now have the driver drowsiness stuff as well, which could be a pain.

On the last podcast Miles confirmed that the general policy with MG is that new features only come with updated versions of each car, retrofitting to existing cars is very rare, except when there's a really big pain point.

So a future MG4 refresh may feature this, but it is unlikely to come to existing owners.

on my 2024 zs ev the lane assist is disabled by default and it appears to use the same mg4 system, I've had both cars.

maybe there is an update?

Disabled by default on my ZS too . That's the way I like it

I turned off LA the first time I drove the car on a narrow ish road, and it’s stayed off. However, it was definitely on by default when purchased.

Can't remember if I turned it off but it's stayed off . Other cars I've driven it always defaulted to on . I prefer it this way
