    Chinese have started flooding the market with cheap electric cars...this is a perfect example of what cheap gets you. Plus my experience is even the genuine service parts are patchy to get quickly.

      I have to say after stripping several batteries from European vehicles this felt cheap in its construction

    Battery seals are going to be a disaster in places they use corrosive ice melt on the roads.

    How are you supposed to buy a second-hand EV with hidden issues like this.

      A petrol or diesel car could also have hidden issues.
      That’s the chance you take with any used vehicle

      @intelligentauto737 I don't disagree at all, just EVs there's far more unknowns.

    Does MG cover the costs?

    Don't look for protection from plastic or the electric car bomb 😂

    Perhaps the EV fans that say an EV is so simple there is nothing to go wrong should have a look at this.

      Dont blame the technology, there is less to go wrong on an EV. This is just a problem with build quality.
      If the battery has a better seal from the factory this would never happen.

      @@intelligentauto737 There is less mechanical to go wrong but vastly more electronics to go wrong. Having worked in electronics for my entire career and done very well out of it. I'm sure EV electronics failures will give you lots of gainful employment. Enjoy.

    In Holland it's not allowed to expose an open battery without a safety barrier placed around it

      This was filmed on Sunday whit only myself present, the lid is back on the battery for now until it’s going to be stripped.
      P.S. I’m not in Holland
