Your receipt Said they checked the alternator belt,where's the alternator on an ev? 😂

Nobody got the warped rear motor in just 1 year of ownership? 😂

Air temperature is key to range and at 10c, it makes sense that you're range was much reduced, as too was driving at 71mph. I did Lowestoft to Tonbridge (134 miles) with 41% battery left in my Zoe ZE50 R135, albeit with OAT at 24c and a more sedate 60mph on dual carriageways. Worked out about 4.3 miles per kW.

I've got the same car and model and have issues with the 'lane assist' pulling me off the road while driving straight and a 'loud turbine sound' coming from the car's hood. The car also has difficulty censoring its surroundings e.g. lane lines, cars, and road signs. MG did not recognize these as defects but fixed two other defects I had i.e. rust on MG front logo/sign and battery issue. I'm not satisfied with the purchase because of these issues and because IMO the standard model is very dry, with few features, a crappy app, and bad software design

Left Lane Driving looks so skechy, when used to Right side driving😆, my head saying all the time Wrong Wrong Wrong. Great Video, greatings from Germany.

Hello Stuart. Will going as low as 3% degrade the battery, done regularly, or is there a recommended battery %age that ideally you should not go below? Are the percentage and range reliable unlike conventional cars telling you 50 mile range then a few seconds later 0? Really interesting how close the ranges are, Thank you for a a very informative video.

great overview!

Ambitious thinking you can maintain 70😂😂

We did Cleethorpes to La Tranche Sur Mer in May, in our Trophy. Used mainly superchargers with a months subscription. Worked out about half the cost of other charging networks.

18:58 oh all along I thought you were driving the 77 battery version.

Trying to decide on this over a few others, ie VW ID3, Citroen eC4. I’m curious though, what’s the sound system quality like?

Nice sharing! btw is there an email for collaboration?

Is the lane assist as bad as some people make it out to be?

😊

With the bettery's longevity in mind, idealy you don't want to go lower than 10%. Some experts even say 20%. Which means that both these cars have much lower ranges than advertised. Nothing shocking really. These official tests they do are BS and all manufactuerers overadvertise their products. If you need a car for 250mile roadtrips, get something with a much larger battery to get a realistic 250 mile range without sacrificing the life of the battery. Or.....have some common sense and get a conventional car. EVs are more like.....toys at the moment, or best case scenario, city cars.

Thanks for this. A really detailed review. I am thinking of getting one of these to use for work (driving instructor). Are those purple lights in the back standard or after market?

Great informative video, thanks for sharing!..

Its a nice car, pity it's electric! , Not sure that cheap, chinese electrics inspires confidence. Does it come with a fire extinguisher? Although its actually not cheap compared to a better petrol, some of which with modern engines will be cheaper to run depending where your charging and costs. Petrol are definitely cheaper to fix, they also do more miles without the range anxiety of charging and the axiety of spontaneously catching fire!! Think its more for town and for the nieve who know nothing of cars apart from what they read in the guardian!! 4 times the carbon footprint of a petrol car to make! Not to mention the minerals for the batteries that have to be sourced and mined! Then there's the toxic waste from the battery afterwards! They still have to be plugged in and that energy comes from gas and oil powerstations!!! Crazy! Electrics is so much more expensive to repair and service and is the first thing to go wrong on any car, so why would you fully depend on an eggs in one basket rediculas idea! Totally neive, but to each thier own! 😂😂

Recent owner of the much older Q210. Honestly, it has been great, it's such a nice car!

I look at many ev road trips , everyone regards the trip as a challenge, not the message the pro ev want to convey but it is a fact petrol and diesel vehicles make road trips easier, i have a bmw i3 rex as i will never public charge, no hunt the charger which may not work or is busy and have to wait,

I will be owning the MG4 Luxury Long Range, Next monday! Im so excited for it. Definitly an upgrade when you come from a Ford Fiesta lol

What is this trim level equivalent for the United States models? Because in the United States for example, the 2022 model is generally classified and described as being the EX Trim or the Premiere Trim:

I refuse to give dictatorships luxury products profit....

Very informative, thank you

Two observations: 1. Most people would not go below 10% due to anxiety, 2. An indicated 70mph is really 68mph true. Thus, the real warm weather range was 210 miles or c. 200 miles at an indicated 72mph (70 mph true). The real winter range would be c. 20% less, thus a real motorway range of c. 160 miles.

Why the high temperature? At 22 I would be soaked in sweat. To each his own of course. For me the standard wins hands down with an LFP battery.

Around town I'm getting 4.5-5.0 kw easily, but on motorway 3.2 is the normal at 65 mph

I love this car! What state is the battery in, have you had it tested for degradation. Currently have an id3 of about the same age, double the mileage and the range doesn’t seem to have dropped at all. Looking at either getting a new kona or a 2nd hand Ioniq 5.

6 Months is nothing

It is a throwaway car so can be forgiven should last a bit longer than 12 months maybe

By the time the car got to 10%, that was 3 hours of driving! How big is your bladder? Seriously, I would suggest that a 10 to 15 minute stop every 200 miles or every 2 hours is important for safety. Provided reasonably spaced high powered working chargers are available on route, 250 mile range is plenty.

your journey there is about the same if not more than you'd pay in petrol for a standard 1.0 litre car on unleaded

thanks for video, good Q&A! i also wish it had a glass roof

A middle lane hogger on the motorway, of course your an EV driver.

Fantastic mate

hi, how would you rate the sound \ audio quality? and is there a way to connect a phone as hot spot? cheers

Excellent appraisal, very down to earth observations, best "reviewer." Common sense approach to explaining your experience, thanks, 🇬🇧

most notable is a key dimension - width - The Kia Niro has one of the narrower profiles compared to all other EVs making it more likely to fit in the standard UK tiny garage for those lucky enough to have one.

Very interesting and informative, thank you

Nice video, however, mind that ANY kind of battery chemistry is at the most stressed state when fully charged or fully discharged. It is true the it's not as bad with LFP compared to NCM but it will still happen, so if you don't need max range all the time and you want longevity, limit the charging. Charge fully only ocasionally for calibration.

Don't like the pointless in car lights, Matts and sill covers are nice thou

you should do the same road trip on Eco mode 👍

Great video! Very informative. Thanks.

about 60K new and a 22 plate about £21K that is insane depreciation then factor in tyre replacements at £150 plus a go and thats a no from me sorry.

Mileage is absolutely fine if you live in a town and go to work in it, or travel to the next town or village 👍 full tank about £17 quid and lasts a month whats not to like, a short commuter's car , fantastic 👍.

Ordered a 22 plate Ioniq 5 premium long range. One thing to note is if you buy approved used from Hyundai as long as its a 71 plate onwards they will give you a 5 year warranty like new. The battery warranty doesn't reset though so still counts down from 8 years from day o registration. Pretty big win to swing me towards it!

Great car and a fantastic buy as a nearly new used example. Just a little too big for me. I just wish Hyundai had put the blueprints through the copier at 90% and introduced a little brother.

I could very easily have bought a 2021 Ioniq 5 recently, it was between this and an ID4. On car alone I marginally preferred the I5 but VW swung it by offering some great finance deals which made thr ID4 a lot cheaper on PCP - this was a bonus because I don’t need to worry about depreciation.

Good demo.

I actually have this car and I hav done 340miles with still % remaining in the teens and that was 3 in the car too
