Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

MG ZS EV
- Understated and classy styling
- Rich interior quality. Feels very upmarket
- Good features list - 10.1-inch touchscreen, digital instrument cluster, etc.
- Realistically achievable range of 300-350km on a full charge
Mahindra XUV400 EV
- Real-world range is suitable for use beyond city borders
- Cabin ergonomics are on point
- Dual digital 10.25-inch screens are crisp and lag-free
- Effortless performance
- Based on a global NCAP 5-star crash safety rated platform

MG ZS EV
- Rear seat space is good but some may expect a roomier experience for the price
- Boot space could’ve been more generous
- EV charging infrastructure is inconsistent. Home/work charging and the portable charger will be more dependable than public charging
- Some ergonomic flaws - lumbar cushioning feels excessive, front armrest may be too tall for short drivers
Mahindra XUV400 EV
- Copper contrast panels may not be to everyone’s taste, especially if you prefer subtle styling
- Still no OTA update for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
- Misses out on a few feel-good features like ventilated seats
- Rear view camera’s execution could be better
