MG ZS EV 51kWh (A) Facelift Review
16 Mar 2023  |  MG Reviews
A strong mid-life refresh adds welcome polish to the MG ZS EV's approachable electric template - but it now also carries a bigger price tag.

I've had this MG ZS EV for a month now. Love everything about it even though I sort of "Downgraded" From a Mercedes E200. I like that it feels premium given the price point and CatA status. The whole car feels well put together. I really like the pano sunroof, regen brakes, rear aircon vents, power tailgate, adaptive cruise control, traffic jam assist, Apple CarPlay and multiple usb ports. The drive is smooth, quiet and very torquey!

A few minor things on the wishlist that would make this car perfect include the lack of a frunk. The Trophy version in Singapore also doesn't have the smart features that the Connect version has, which is available in other countries like the UK and NZ. Anyway, these are very minor grouses. Overall, I'm really pleased with the MG!

This facelifted MG ZS now looks more like the rest of its EV companions, with a blanked off grille sleeker lighting front and back. And it has the drive to suit as well.

What I like
Other than the improved looks? The car also has a slight power bump from before, and a slightly larger battery, although any increase in range will probably not be that apparent in real-life use.

One thing that's great about the MG ZS is that its charging port is located at the front, so there no need to pull the charging cable along the side of the car, or find the right lot with the charger at the correct side if you're charging in a public carpark.

Other than that its still a soft and spongy SUV, ride is comfortable but its never going to inspire any kind of sporty driving.

Interior is spacious enough, and looks premium thanks to the use of red stitching and 'carbon fibre' trim pieces.

What I do not like
Instrument cluster can look a bit busy, and the infotainment not only looks one generation old already but will lag every now and then.
