Hi, I have been driving this MG Windsor Pro for 3.5 months now and crossed 1500 kms so far. I have been constantly monitoring the mileage, and it gives only 250km on a full charge. The promised mileage is at least 375-400km on this pro variant. The service centre checked the battery health, and it came out good. What would be the issue? I drive only within the congested traffic in Bangalore, and very minimal to zero AC. 90% of the time only in eco+ mode.

The MG Windsor Pro with Eco+ mode and air-con in a moderate setting is expected to be much more efficient than what your car seems to be averaging. However, one possible reason for low efficiency could be that with a monthly usage of around 400km, your daily travel of 10-15km is quite low. It is possible that before your vehicle's battery reaches its most efficient state/temperature, you arrive at your destination. Another possible reason could be heavy traffic snarls, where the constant stop-and-go traffic could result in higher energy consumption.

To check your vehicle's health yourself, you could go for a longer drive of around 100km, and if the SOC falls from 100% to around 70%, it means that your vehicle is performing normally. If your battery falls to 65% or lower, something might not be right. In that case, check with the service centre to see whether your vehicle's software is up-to-date. Also, maintain recommended tyre pressures at all times.
