MG ZS updated with new design and technology features

MG Motor has launched the updated MG ZS, bringing about an evolution of its best-selling B-segment petrol SUV.

The new MG ZS retains all the strengths of the out-going car but adds a number of design and technology features which take the new MG ZS to the next level in terms of specification and value-for-money.

At the front, the stylish stellar field grille of the out-going model has evolved into a hexagonal grille which provides greater road presence and frames the famous MG logo.

The full LED headlamps now sweep back towards the wings in order to create a front end which looks lower and sportier than the previous car.

An aluminium-effect lower grille and fog-lights on the top-of-the-range version complete the makeover at the front.

Moving around to the side, the new MG ZS receives modern, newly-designed 17-inch alloy wheels in two styles, while the rear has received new aluminium-style trim and refreshed taillights.

On the inside, the new MG ZS features a stylish new dashboard design with more soft touch materials than ever before, finished with detail stitching. The central 10.1-inch floating colour touchscreen is the centrepiece, featuring DAB radio, Bluetooth telephone and music streaming, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

U.K. versions of the car also get a new design cloth trim for the lower-spec version, while the higher-spec model receives new leather-style upholstery.

The MG ZS is available in the U.K. with a 105bhp 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine mated to a five-speed manual gearbox.
