MG ZS EV Shipping Updates

[nwarddrfc]

Evm is great his review of the zs was really good

 

[NZMGEV]

I'm pleased to hear that Granny works for you Raj. Will you keep your existing ZS?

The plan is to sell the Gen-1 but it will depend on what I can get for it as I didn't get the govt rebate. I'll see what the dealer offers as a trade in or what the prices are like for private sales....when the cars arrive in NZ.

So my dealer put a video up yesterday. Lots of stock hs mg5 and mg3. Didn’t mention zs ev tho. So if anyone wants one of these get yourself to redditch mg!

For some reason, the location on vessel finder doesn’t update between Singapore and the Suez Canal. No reports of any vehicle carriers capsized, so I’m sure it’s still afloat!

Seeing all the long delays in getting a new MG EV ZS. Will the model be out of date on delivery?

Silly as it sounds, I've been watching foreign car shows & have my ears open for any whisper of a marque 3. It's not inconceivable that there could be one in the works before end of 2023, when they'll probably still be delivering on the current version.

 

[Dr Robert]

But not many MG's I imagine !!

I did see one red ZS in the car park a couple of weeks ago but I don't know who owned it or whether it was short range/long range.

Ordering a Tesla now has a 9 month waiting list. Lots of people prepared to splash out £60k+ for them !

Jaguar iPace has no fixed delivery. Another £65k+ EV that people buy.

Hyundai Ioniq is way more expensive than the MG ZS EV. The Kona is a smaller car and does not look or feel as premium a car as the ZS EV.

The Skoda Enyaq BEV is far more expensive than the ZS EV when you spec it out the same - though is a bit larger.

The VW ID3 interior is not a patch on the ZS EV, and is now just as hard to get new as the ZS EV.

Not defending MG, but where will you find a similarly sized BEV with the range, features and price of the ZS EV. It really is worth the wait - IMHO.

Obviously I also felt that the ZS EV was the best value for money otherwise I wouldn't have ordered one. However, factoring in the salary sacrifice tax breaks and stronger residuals, the monthly saving wasn't huge. If I could go back to December I would order an ID4 and I would be driving it around today.

So the MG Marvel will be here before our orders if they are not careful. A lovely looker it is too.

It does look lovely - I'm not keen on the screen placement/pitch, though I do like the display size. It'll also be a fair bit more expensive than the ZS if it ever makes it here.

Think you're being bit optimistic with ID4, it has a 12 month estimated delivery, note estimated... All or at least most car makers in same situation.

 

[N2STY]

I find it funny that SAIC make the id4 aswell (I know not for UK market but still tickles me)

ID4 is no different for delivery times and promises than most BEVs.

Here is a message just posted up on the ID4 forum…

“We ordered ID4 Life52kwh Pure 148PS 26.11.21 Last update from Swansway was due to be built week 22, does anyone know when its likely to come at all??
Many thanks”

Some people are getting the car delivered, but with parts missing !

Stick in there....Ordered my ZS EV LR in December. Initially told April...changed to June....changed to August. Out the blue on Wednesday my dealer phoned me to say 3 cars had turned up, they weren't expecting them and that one of them was mine... . Now the proud owner of an MG ZS EV LR in Red. Loving it so far, glad i waited.
