Turning HVAC off and putting the car in eco mode will make the range display higher, but bottom line is this is a seasonal effect. Expect your range to be typically 25-30% less in winter than in summer.

Ha ha, yes.Do we really need yet another "Range" thread?
I agree ? maybe here Thread 'Range' RangeDo we really need yet another "Range" thread?
Yeah that's true.There seems to be a massive influx of people buying EVs on the basis that “it’ll definitely do 280 miles 365 days a year” and they drive it like their old ICE car and only get 100 miles out of the battery. I wish dealers were more open with this kind of thing and said it depends on weather, driving style, heating etc rather than just selling these cars Willy nilly.
It just comes down to inexperience and it doesn't take long to figure it out. I'm sure if SoKo comes back and reads this thread again in a few weeks/months time he'll feel very different about it.There seems to be a massive influx of people buying EVs on the basis that “it’ll definitely do 280 miles 365 days a year” and they drive it like their old ICE car and only get 100 miles out of the battery.

Ha ha, no.Ha ha, yes.
Most people who aren’t interested in EVs per se are going to assume they work the same as the cars they know, so if they are told the range is X, they won’t know it is temperature/season dependent.There seems to be a massive influx of people buying EVs on the basis that “it’ll definitely do 280 miles 365 days a year” and they drive it like their old ICE car and only get 100 miles out of the battery.

Probably mostly down to the outside temperature dropping and the driving conditions.Hi
I’m only getting 200 miles range on my mg4 trophy in a full charge it seems to be getting less on every charge .. anyone else having this problem?
I thought so but my zs ev I had before the mg4 only dropped a little over the winter so was getting a little concerned with the fact it’s significantly dropping down.. thank you for your input ?Probably mostly down to the outside temperature dropping and the driving conditions.
As Oberoi states have a look at the MG4 Range on this forum.
