Page 292-293 of the handbook PDF It must be a quirk of the MG ZS EV BMS as I've not read about any other BEV manufacturer having to do this. I wonder if the MG5 ev owners have to do this too.

MG seems to be going from strength to strength as the biggest ever shipment of MG cars arrive in Portbury docks Bristol.
Over a quarter of those cars are the new long range MG 5 BEV. https://www.motortrader.com/motor-tr...nge-12-08-2021

I'm seeing a few work arounds for the MG BEV's due to the powers that be banning remote App access to European/UK cars due to data protection. One of the big bug bears was starting & stopping charging to take advantage of cheap overnight electricity rates usually between midnight & 05:00 hours.
A gadget from Shelly have come up with a good cheap alternative for a "dumb charger" like mine. https://shellystore.co.uk/product/shelly-1/ As I've mentioned I didn't go with the OLEV grant people because of the high price for a Smart charger even after the £350 OLEV grant. Mine cost £163 & if I wanted to turn it into a smart charger it would be £9 more This device which costs £9 will do the exact same job if you need to charge your car via mobile phone App at certain times to take advantage of overnight cheap rate electricity.

We've had ours since May and think it's great. It's my wife's car really and it was her idea to go electric. Such a comfy relaxing car to drive. So far so good.

I really really need this sound file in my MG ZS EV for the low speed pedestrian warning noise.

Looks great on paper, but a jump in price of course. Still very competitive against the competition.

'From what I've been reading there will be price increases across the all models from Feb (I think) 2022 but they will come with more tech & bigger batteries, They will also have remote access with the MG i-Smart app too I believe. Our daughter has been using my MG ZS EV for a week whilst her car was in the garage for repairs and as we don't use the car every day I got a better idea of how much of a drain on the battery having the heating,lights,fan,wipers were using as she leaves home in the dark at 5:00am & returns around 9:00pm. Our daughter has the heating Maxed out on her cars all the time & the range dropped quite a lot compared to our normal usage.
