    One Question. Can the Android Auto navigation plan routes with charging stops for EVs? I am currently thinking to get an MG4 electric, but there is a big price gap between the one with on board Nav (and 10 things I dont want to pay for) and the one I would want to get if Android Auto could account for charging stops.

On the main infotainment screen it has FM and AM but the DAB is ghosted in dark grey....Am I to believe this Excite model has No DAB Radio? And if so it's a poor show not having a DAB setting on a year old car, surley these should come as a standard setting? Any info greatly appreciated.

    Hi Jerry. So I am confused here. I don't want any wires. I want to use everything through my bluetooth connection ie not have to use android auto. In my last car a Renault, if I was connected and in the address boo (Managed by another button on steering wheel) when I pressed the face like thing for 15secs it then beeped you said the name, ie Renault call name etc, and it connected and made the call. But now I have an MG and I cannot get the call thing to work wirelessly, what am I doing wrong. I am using a new Samsung Galaxy noto 20. BTW I now have the MG Exclusive 1.5 DCT Auto, 2022 model. Many thanks
