MG ZS FAQs

Back in the day, the MG ZS was a sporty hatchback based on the pedestrian Rover 45. These days, the reborn MG brand sells the ZS SUV, which sits between the MG 3 supermini and the larger HS SUV. The modern ZS is a five-door crossover – it launched in the UK in late 2017, and was facelifted in 2020.

At roughly 4.3m long, the MG ZS takes up as much space on the road as a Ford Focus, so it shouldn’t be daunting to drive at all. There’s a lot of headroom in the ZS and space for four adults – five at a pinch. Boot space is really good. At 448 litres, the petrol ZS offers nearly 100 litres more than the Nissan Juke and Hyundai Kona. The electric ZS EV boosts this to 470 litres.

Unusually in this class, you can choose from conventional petrol engines or a fully electric ZS EV version. There are two petrols, one with the option of an automatic gearbox, while the size of the battery in the electric model varies depending on the age of the car.

While the MG brand has a long history in the UK, the ZS and the rest of the company's current lineup are relatively new arrivals to  the UK – now exported from MG's parent company, SAIC's base in China.

Cars only started appearing in meaningful numbers in 2018, and have been regularly updated since then. What that means is that, while early models didn't score extremely well in UK reliability surveys, we expect some of these issues to have been ironed out in more recent versions.

It's worth noting that, where problems have been reported, it's more often associated with fuel-powered ZS models, while the battery-powered ZS EV seems to be a little more robust overall.

MG does, however, offer a generous seven-year factory warranty on its cars, so buyers get manufacturer coverage for years to come. Add an extended warranty for even more protection from unexpected repair costs once the manufacturer's warranty expires.

MG has offered what's called a panoramic skyroof in the UK. This has only been offered on the 1.0T GDi petrol engine, however, so you'll only find it on those examples and not on the 1.5-litre or EV-powered models.

Pre-facelift ZS EVs come with a 44.5kWh battery which, when fully charged, returns a 163-mile range. Using a 7kW home charger will take 6.5 hours to get the battery from 0-100%. These older ZS models can fast charge at a rate of 50kW, taking 40 minutes to get from 0-80%.

With the facelift, MG now offers two batteries – a 51.1kWh pack giving 198 miles of range and a 72.6kWh version for 273 miles. The smaller pack takes 8 hours for a full charge from a 7kW domestic plug or 36 minutes to hit 80% using a 100kW fast charger. Upgrading to the larger pack means a 10.5-hour full charge from a 7kW outlet, or 42 minutes for an 80% charge at a 100kW rate.
