Home and Destination Charging (0 -> 100%)

Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the MG ZS EV. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.

Type 2 (Mennekes - IEC 62196)

Charging Point	Max. Power	Power	Time	Rate
Wall Plug (2.3 kW)	230V / 1x10A	2.3 kW	21h45m	6 mph
1-phase 16A (3.7 kW)	230V / 1x16A	3.7 kW	13h30m	10 mph
1-phase 32A (7.4 kW)	230V / 1x29A	6.6 kW †	7h45m	17 mph
3-phase 16A (11 kW)	230V / 1x16A	3.7 kW †	13h30m	10 mph
3-phase 32A (22 kW)	230V / 1x29A	6.6 kW †	7h45m	17 mph

† = Limited by on-board charger, vehicle cannot charge faster.

Rapid Charging (10 -> 80%)

Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the MG ZS EV.

Max. Power: maximum power provided by charge point
Avg. Power: average power provided by charge point over a session from 10% to 80%
Time: time needed to charge from 10% to 80%
Rate: average charging speed over a session from 10% to 80%

Combined Charging System (CCS Combo 2)

Charging Point	Max. Power	Avg. Power	Time	Rate
CCS (50 kW DC)	50 kW	45 kW †	42 min	130 mph
CCS (175 kW DC)	76 kW †	53 kW †	35 min	160 mph

All about the MG ZS EV

No longer available

This electric vehicle is no longer in production and not available to buy new. The MG ZS EV was available from September 2019 until November 2021. Financial data like price, leasing and company car tax were applicable to the final year of availability of the MG ZS EV.

A new model of the MG ZS EV (2019) is available: MG ZS EV Standard Range (2022).

Pricing

The MG ZS EV had an On The Road Price (OTR) of £28,595. The OTR Price includes VAT, first year of VED, vehicle first registration fee, number plates and delivery. The MG ZS EV was eligible for a Plug-In Car Grant (PICG) of £2,500. The OTR Price including the PICG for the MG ZS EV is £26,095.

Drivetrain and Performance

The MG ZS EV is a full electric vehicle (BEV). The maximum power of the MG ZS EV is 105 kW (141 hp). The maximum torque is 260 lb-ft. The MG ZS EV is front wheel drive and can accelerate from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 8.2 seconds. The top speed is 87 mph.

Battery and Charging

The battery of the MG ZS EV has an estimated total capacity of 44.5 kWh. The usable capacity is 42.5 kWh (estimate). A range of about 135 miles is achievable on a fully charged battery. The actual range will however depend on several factors including climate, terrain, use of climate control systems and driving style.

For example: sustaining high speeds in cold weather could result in a range of around 95 mi. However, driving at low speeds in mild weather will increase the range to around 210 mi.

Charging is done using a Type 2 connector and the on-board charger has a maximum power of 6.6 kW. This charges a fully depleted battery back to full in around 7 hours 45 minutes. Charging the car using a regular wall plug will take around 21 hours 45 minutes.

Rapid charging is possible through a CCS connection. The maximum rapid charge power is 76 kW. The battery can't be charged continuously at this power. In an average rapid charge session the average charge power will be around 53 kW. This charges the battery from 10% to 80% in around 40 minutes. A rapid charge like this will add about 90 miles of range.

Energy Consumption

The combined (motorway and city) energy consumption of the MG ZS EV is about 315 Wh per mile. By comparison, this energy consumption is the equivalent of a fuel consumption of 129 mpg in a traditional petrol car.

The actual energy consumption will depend on several factors including climate, terrain, use of climate control systems and driving style. For example: sustaining high speeds in cold weather could result in an energy use of around 447 Wh per mile. However, driving at low speeds in mild weather will increase the efficiency to about 202 Wh per mile.

CO2 Emission

The MG ZS EV emits no CO2 during driving. This only includes direct emissions from the vehicle itself. The energy needed to charge the battery might have been (partly) generated by the use of fossil fuels. Vehicles with an internal combustion engine will always emit CO2 during driving. Additionally, CO2 is emitted during the production and transport of fossil fuels.
