MG ZS

The first electric offering from MG to hit the UK, the MG ZS EV is well-liked for good reason. The car comprises MG’s commitment to being user-friendly and affordable, with the updated Long Range version having the range to take you to the office, on the school run, and away for the weekend without recharging. All in all, this car is an excellent introduction to EVs, and what it lacks in flashy wow-factor it more than makes up for in practicality and comfort.

MG ZS Trophy vs MG ZS SE

The MG ZS comes with the option of two trims – the SE and the Trophy. Both trim levels give you the same family-focused comfort and useability, with easy-to-use controls, access to the MG iSmart app and clever keyless entry.

For the Trophy trim of the MG ZS, accessories and upgrades are the main allure, though none are so huge that they drastically impact the pricing. If you do opt for the Trophy you can expect upgraded seating, rain sensing wipers and a panoramic roof, on top of all of the excellent features included with the SE.

Here’s a summary of the key features per trim:

MG ZS range and charging info

Whether you prefer the Trophy or the SE, both trims available on subscription are the Long Range versions, with a 73kWh battery and a real-world range of 225 miles. As per usual, the charging ports are Type 2 and CCS, and a max charging speed of 94kW means that you can get from 10-80% charge in 37 minutes.

Charging electric cars might seem daunting if you’ve not owned an EV before, but whether you’re looking to install a charging point at home, or get by on public chargers, it’s one of the first areas where you’ll see the convenience and cost-effectiveness of switching to an EV.

MG ZS interior

With a push-button start and an Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatible 10.1” central touchscreen, the MG ZS’s interior is focused towards easy interactions and comfortable travel. There are also five USB ports included as standard, to keep a family’s worth of devices firing.

MG EVs are known for being spacious, and the ZS is no exception. The MG ZS’s boot capacity is particularly impressive, with 470 litres of seats-up boot space, and 1,100 when the seats are down.

MG ZS exterior

Relatively sleek by EV standards, while the majority of MG ZS’s accessories are confined to the interior, the outside of the vehicle isn’t half bad either. Available in two colours, with an integrated front grille, one of the things the MG ZS does nicely is keep the charging port discrete. It might not score points in uniqueness when it comes to its looks, but its classic SUV shape combined with thoughtful features such as follow me home headlights make it a very well-rounded EV.
