Yes but I was more interested by the 92 kW charge statement for the LR as I'd assumed it was a 76 ish maximum. There had been some suggestions, such as the ev-database, that 92 kW was possible but generally 76 kW seemed to be the tops especially after Miles' charge test. Nice to see that more should be possible officially.
[Edit: Just to add to the confusion even the ev-database link has reverted to 76 kW maximum]

I wouldn’t bother charging on anything faster than a 50kw CCS tbh. I don’t know what the charge rate curve vs % looks like on the MG but I assume it will drop off to around 50kw pretty soon anyway. I have a Peugeot e208 that is capable of 100kw DC charging but you never get it, I think the most I’ve seen is 75kw at 10% SOC.
So bearing in mind the significant difference in price per kWh between 50kw and 100+kw chargers il always go for a 50kw if available.

Durban Highway has just about entered the Bristol Chanel.

Nearly here, here's hoping at least some of our cars are on it!

Did I see right the LR has 11kw on board charger?

Only in Europe.

For those traking ships coming into Bristol. There is the following this month:
1) Durban Highway 9th Feb
2) Viking Sea (not the cruise ship) 11th Feb
3) Brasilia Highway 23rd Feb
4) Emerald Leader 28th Feb
5) Heroic Leader 28th Feb

We can continue to live in hope

Thanks for info. Morale is up again ?

It appears to me that, as no one on this forum has said they have had a delivery date for Feb/Mar, then can we assume dealers don't know what's coming until the vehicles have been discharged from the ship? Surely MG should know what has been loaded in Shanghai and during the 3 week voyage alert dealers as to what's coming?

That would still have to be 2200 MGs per ship to hit 11,000 expected by end of Feb. Possible but is it really probable

I think they mainly find out after they land here and are allocated by MG UK?

My understanding exactly. MG UK are the only people that might know the numbers at this point.

I've found some interesting reading on why it takes a car so long to be delivered after the order is placed...

How long will it take for my car to be delivered? - OSV

So you've ordered your car, now you just have to wait for the delivery. But, how long will that take? Here are some of the things that affect...

My MG HS PHEV is due March......maybe. According to a old pod cast awhile ago they know numbers but MG UK do not allocate until cars are here.

My dealer says the expected delivery date for our SR is still end of march ??

I’m hoping my dealer was being over pessimistic last week when he said my MG5 LR exclusive ordered in Sept, will not be in now until June

The Durban Highway in the Bristol Channel this morning.
It's there somewhere in the mist. Can't see much past Sand Point.

Only in Europe.

For clarity; it's an additional option. If you don't spec it you'll get the 7kw charger.

No, not in Europe. The SR has only a 7kw charger, but all LR version has a 11KW, it’s not an option here

Also, you can’t spec à SR with an optional 11KW
