Thank you very much Ronan. We're delighted you enjoyed it.

Haha we love the pun. The new MG ZS is really impressive. The proof is in the pudding with how well they're selling. We recently spoke to a few dealers who are completely sold out until 2023!

Thanks Phil. Good luck with the new car when it arrives and do let us know how you find it!

Thank you very much Kevin!

Great to hear that George. Thanks so much for the positive feedback.

Thank you so much! We really appreciate it!

Ultimately it depends on your annual mileage. For ourselves, diesel would need to go up to £3.50+ a litre to get close to us breaking even for our main SUV. This MG is the model I'm looking at, but not until 2025-26 I suspect..

@@stuartburns8657 how did you calculate that?

@@verygoodbrother Somewhat roughly ;) but as follows: 2016 diesel Nissan Qashqai (in the UK) £20 pa Road tax. Loan 0. Paid off. Assume trade in value of 8k? Insurance £220 pa £60 pm fuel (4k annual miles) - 55mpg avg. Price of the 'cheapest' same specification EV matching the Nissan 30.5k Home charger £800. Let's say £120 per year to charge / fuel? So 5 year loan for 23k (assuming I can trade in mine for 7k paid) is £411 (2.9% apr) I'm not doing pcp just hp.. Road tax £0 (saving £20!!! Yay) Insurance £340 So I'm £411 worse of with higher loan repayments. £13 pm (over 5 yrs) for the home charger £10pm charging Insurance extra £10pm £443 extra on the family budget and I'm paying the majority of that off for 5 years. So 4,000 miles at 55mpg at £3.50 a litre is approx £1,200. Given the Nissan only has 45k miles, that's a lot of dead tree juice isn't it? Even at those prices lol It's simply not an instant win for everyone

Very interesting and great points! We look forward to testing one in the summertime!

Hi John, thanks so much and we're delighted to hear you have one on order. Unfortunately lead times on most cars is now very long. I've began advising. people to start test driving and looking into their next car 6-12 months in advance of wanting it. We hope the next few months go past quickly so you can collect your new wheels!

Thanks Safour. I'm not sure I fully understand your question. What do you mean by 'dropped to its last limit."''

@@DoneDealMotor thank you very much for addressing my question; when the battery charge drops to 10% or 20%, does the vehicle gives same speed like when it was charged to 100%.

@@safournavy From a driving point of view? Yes, I believe so however I didn't drive it at that low of a battery %. Hope that helps :)

The MG ZS EV does not use CHAdeMO it is CCS. If you need a CCS cable it is sold separately which is something I really think MG should rethink given the price of the car (you can buy cheaper 3rd party cables though). It does come with a standard plug charging cable (Granny Charger). All rapid charging units (like Ionity etc.) have their own tethered cables. It's when you want to use destination chargers that you'd need your own CCS cable.

Its heat that leads to battery degradation, so yes it will affect it but not massively.

Unlikely, that is why EV's have charging curves. They have an optimal range when it will charge at it's fastest rate, then slows down so as not to damage the battery. Hence why most figures quote the 10% - 80% charging speeds as that is typically what most cars optimal range is. After 80% the charging rate slows significantly to protect the battery. Over time though it will have some degradation.

Aound €0.20 per kWh at the moment in Spain, plus some towns, especially by the beach are now providing free semi fast (22kw) charging. They’re also giving out 7k subsidies towards new evs under 40k in my area so here it’s quite appealing.

@@Adam-dp2xq Good for Spain, UK already removed all subsidies and electricity is around £0.40 per kwh. In Asian and US, I think they are still under $0.15 per kwh. But again, petrol is £2 per liter now, EV is still cheaper to run. It just everything becomes so expensive.

@@badminverse2136 Yeah im surprised the UK isn’t doing more, the government here has already cut tax on fuel by 20 cents and done similar things for electricity prices.

@@badminverse2136 Currently paying 7.4p per kWh on night rate in the UK. If you are home charging you can get a night or EV Tariff from most providers. Electricity has always been cheaper at night due to less demand. Subsidies here are rubbish £1500 off the cost of a car and now nothing for installing home charger. Ireland's current subsidy is €5,000 euros for car purchase and €600 towards a home charger. Would imagine most EU countries are more generous than our sadly sinking bit of Real Estate.

What u mean it’s connected? Like yr mobile phone being already connected to China?the chips in yr phone? Leave yr mobile at home, turn it off. If u r worried about the car being connected, don’t start the damn car!

@@jacobheinz8236 If I am connected with my mobile. Who cares, but if my car is permanently connected by eSim or something like that, that means governments, businesses, and hackers can take control of driving, charging and every aspect of my car. Something I prefer not to.

on motorway or town driving?
