Overview

The MG ZS EV Long Range (2021-…) is an all-electric front-wheel drive SUV. It came out in 2021. The car is not available on the US market.

The MG ZS EV Long Range (2021-…) has a 72.6 kWh battery pack, allowing it to travel up to 232 mi on a single charge — ranked №455 out of 824 electric vehicles.

How powerful is it? How fast does it accelerate?

The MG ZS EV Long Range (2021-…) achieves a 0 to 60 mph acceleration in 8.1 seconds (placing it at №64 out of 116 ranked positions, among 824 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions) and attains a maximum speed of 109 mph.

Its powertrain provides a power output of up to 115 kW (154 hp) and a torque of 207 lb-ft.

How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?

MG ZS EV Long Range (2021-…) achieves a real-world range of 232 miles, placing it at №135 among 251 ranked positions. However, this range is subject to several influences:

Speed: Traveling at higher speeds reduces battery life.
Temperature: Extreme cold or hot weather can affect range.
Terrain: Hilly or mountainous landscapes decrease range.
Driving habits: Aggressive driving with frequent acceleration and braking consumes more energy.
Feature usage: Climate control and media systems also influence range.

It's important to acknowledge that these are estimations, and your actual driving range may differ. Consider these factors when planning your trip and be ready for potential charging stops.

Utilize the interactive EV Navigation map for trip planning assistance.

What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?

The MG ZS EV Long Range (2021-…) in the USA comes with a CCS Type 2 charging port. It can be charged at home using a standard domestic socket or at any public AC charging station with the compatible cable. It's important to note that the car's on-board charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging rate to 7.4 kW, resulting in approximately 23 miles of range added per hour of charging.

For significantly faster charging, public DC fast-charging stations are available. Although the car can achieve a maximum DC charging rate of 94 kW, factors such as battery temperature and charge level may affect the actual charging speed.

Use EV Charging Calculator to estimate charging time, rate, and cost.

How big is it? What are the dimensions (length, width, height)?

The size and weight specifications for MG ZS EV Long Range (2021-…) are as follows:

Length: 170.2 in
Width: in (including side mirrors) or 71.2 in (excluding side mirrors)
Height: 64.9 in
Wheelbase: 101.6 in (distance between the center of the front and rear wheels)
Curb weight: 3737 lbs (weight of the empty car, no people or cargo)

How much cargo space does it offer? Does it have a front trunk?

The rear cargo area of the MG ZS EV Long Range (2021-…) provides 15.8 cubic feet of space when the rear seats are upright (№97 out of 155 ranked positions, among 824 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions).
