MG battery testing: an independent SOH certificate
We are testing 12 versions of MG, spread across 6 model groups. Within three minutes, you will know what the battery pack is still worth.
WHAT COMES OUT OF THE BATTERY PACK
What we read out from MGs
All 12 MG versions in our list are fully electric. With a large battery pack, the key is in the details: not just how much capacity is left, but also whether all cells are still performing equally.
The SOH percentage: the actual capacity compared to the factory value
The cell balance: the voltage difference between the weakest and the strongest cell
The charging history: how often it has been fast-charged and how deeply it has been discharged
The warranty status of the battery pack
A comparison with similar cars of the same year of manufacture
Everything comes directly from the battery management system via the OBD port. No estimation based on age or mileage. Within three minutes, the CARA-certified certificate is ready, as a PDF and as a JPEG.
Which MGs we can test
The MG 4 and MG 5 have quickly become popular as used cars; the battery condition varies by year of manufacture. In total, there are 12 MG versions in our list, divided across 6 model groups, including MG 4, MG 5, MG 5S.
We do not yet have enough measurements for MG to provide a reliable picture. However, the same applies to every brand: the measurement reads the actual capacity, which often turns out differently than the mileage would suggest.
Age and mileage say little about a battery pack. How it was charged carries more weight: a car that was connected to a fast charger for years is in a different condition than a car that was charged at home on a wallbox. You only see that difference when you read the pack itself, and that is exactly what a buyer of a secondhand MG asks for.
The measurement is done via the OBD port. You receive the SOH percentage, the cell balance, the warranty status, the charging history, and a comparison with similar cars, summarized in a CARA-certified certificate as a PDF and a JPEG.
