An all electric version made its debut as EZS at the 2018 Guangzhou Auto Show, featuring a 44.5 kWh battery, and a front positioned motor producing 143 PS (141 hp; 105 kW) or 150 PS (148 hp; 110 kW) and 350 N⋅m (35.7 kg⋅m; 258 lb⋅ft) to the front wheels. It is available in the United Kingdom, parts of Europe, Thailand, China, and India.

It was revealed in Australia in November 2020 as the cheapest electric car in the market of all time. MG Australia predicted a sales target of 3,000 unit for the 2021 model year.

Except for China, the electric SUV is officially named as ZS EV, while the official name in China is EZS.

    Driving off without the key!

    We took over an MG ZS EV driven to us by another person and then drove off without realizing that he still had the key! The car was not turned off at the hand over and was in ready-to-drive mode. There was no alarms or other warnings that we could notice as we started driving. Only after...

    BMS update- feedback from MG

    Sent to dealer Please confirm how long it is expected to take before the battery equalises properly (after 15 Jan BMS update), and if there are any scenarios that can be implemented to facilitate reaching this point quicker. As you can imagine, I am still suffering with range issues. Although...

    Help as a new MGZSEV owner Im experimenting with home charging yet currently failing.

    Hello, I have tried using the home charger supplied as standard with the MG ZS, but as no home socket is in reach of the chargers cable I hvae been using an extension lead. The 13 amp fuse on the lead has blown on two different charging days so making overnight charging no longer a reliable...

    MG ZS EV order is placed!

    Well, after reading so many positive words about the ZS EV/debating over hybrid or not/dabbling with the idea of sticking with tried and tested ICE cars, before going for an EV test drive myself, I've gone and secured an Exclusive model. It's a pre-reg, so my first ever brand new car which is...

    I drove my ICE car today .......

    Got it all warmed up & then off for MoT - which it passed ? Didnt half feel strange after a month of MG driving. It’s manual for a start, but the absence of acceleration was a big shock. I did a quick calculation & reckon the annual road tax bill on the Mondeo (c £260 p.a) will actually be MORE...

    BMS and the Comfort Update

    Hi All, I contacted my local dealer yesterday to book the car in for the BMS and HV Fuse update. I was told that these were part of the comfort update and it would be chargeable as per.

    MG ZS EV - Top 10 reasons to buy one

    As with any forum - there’s lots of chatter and some negative and challenging posts around the ZS EV - which is of course useful to have. I’m probably one of the worst culprits for posting negative news/comments! It can of course also taint people’s views of the car if taken in isolation. I...

    Buggy BMS software

    Hi. I've been a little concerned with my car range ever since I got it (Oct 2020). Today I had a trip from 100% to empty (flashing battery and range display at "---") and only got 80 miles. However I was driving carefully and had 2.9 m/kWh which should have given a 122 mile range with 42kw...

    Eco vs Normal; efficiency.

    I have done 1300 miles in my ZS so far and almost all of them in Eco mode. I don't mind Eco mode as it's smooth and promotes relaxed driving. Tonight I did a trip in Eco and then the exact same journey in Normal mode. Everything was the same - heater, heated seats, stereo, max regen and using...

    Does anyone think that the MG ‘7 Year warranty’ is misleading?

    A few people have been asking about warranty. On face value the warranty looks great - when you look at the detail most items actually get 12months to 36months warranty - only the HV batteries and motor the 7 Years? The warranty in my opinion should specifically state this up front if this is...
