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
MG Astor
- Premium interior cabin quality
- Advanced features like ADAS and AI assistant
- Refined and powerful turbo-petrol engine
- Classy looks

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
MG Astor
- Missing some premium features like ventilated seats and a wireless charger
- Rear cabin width not ideal for three passengers
- No diesel engine option
