my cbu is doing 7-8 inside city , and 14 on motorways with cruise on 120

[Mazee]

Is this better than HS ?

[Undeadking0001]

I've had a single drive in it but from first impressions without factoring in a detailed examination or long term use, yes it is

[satardr]

Fuel consumption of Mg is not as bad as usually people say.I think it’s all about your driving habits.I was personally prepared for something between 6-8 km / L but giving me good average.I will suggest if somebody want it first get a test drive and see if the suspension is for him or not .fuel average shouldn’t be the prime concern and shouldn't stop you from buying if you like it.

[zee5han]

Yup I get around 7-7.5 L/100 km on motorway with cruise at 120.

What's the update on CKD bookings and deliveries?

[mrdeejay]

In current economy, no idea if LCs will be allowed to import parts for assembly. Book at your own risk

[zee5han]

I got an sms from MG back in Decmber that on full payment on booking they would deliver car in January.

I recently saw MG HS expert review of Suneel Munj. He mentioned he used regular fuel in his car.
I know some discussion already done in this group in topic. I would like to hear from people who are using regular fuel in car whether they faced any issue after long term use.

[mrdeejay]

Do you think Suneel Munj is smarter than the engineers who designed the engine and say to use Hi-Octane?

The car was launched 2 years ago, so no one has "long-term experience" with using regular petrol on it. My guess is that most people who buy such an expensive suv don't want to risk damaging the engine by saving few rupees on petrol.

If you really like the car, just go for it, fill it up with Hi-Octane and enjoy!

[shahzebrauf]

Brother, this is why i am asking here. If some have used normal fuel for 1 year, he will know

[Undeadking0001]

Put in three full tanks of regular fuel only and the car starts crying about it forget a year

[mrdeejay]

Did it display an error/warning message?

Anyone upsized battery in their HS? These days our car is parked a lot ~10 days between uses and Battery Low voltage warning comes on. I'm considering getting a bigger battery vs a battery charger to top up the battery every week?

[pwuser162883204529]

Dear friends
. . . . . . . tell me about mg hs suspension hard or .

[mrdeejay]

Suspension soft, tires hard

[ifadey]

Better get a battery charger

[mrdeejay]

Yea, ordered a smart battery charger for 4500. Much cheaper than buying a new battery ~30K

Just made a transition from Sportage to MG HS - I have to admit the comfort and ride quality is better.

Although I believe there’s a learning curve involved and you have to manage expectations as it’s not as responsive as naturally aspirated engine, I’m also noticing a few sounds / clicks not sure if this is normal or needs maintenance - servicing pls guide.

When putting the gear into reverse if the road is level / straight - the movement is smooth , but if there’s an incline or you have to reverse upwards to a car porch the car makes a clunk sound esp from the driver side of tire/engine and then reverses up - anyone else faced this issue ? Is it normal or a faulty drive shaft?
