MG has taken the covers off the latest iteration of its popular compact crossover the ZS Hybrid+.
The B-segment SUV market is fiercely competitive and this new model will be competing with the likes of the Seat Arona and Citroen C3 Aircross. However, this time the ZS will come solely as a petrol-electric hybrid and its equipment levels have improved.
In terms of engines, there is only one on offer – a 1.5-litre petrol engine with an electric motor that gives a total power output of 193bhp and 250Nm of torque. It takes the car from 0-60mph in 8.5 seconds, with the top speed yet to be revealed.
David Allison, Head of Product and Planning for MG Motor UK, said: “The all-new MG ZS Hybrid+ delivers an exceptional driving experience and incredible value in the B SUV segment, featuring equipment and technologies that make daily life easier. The refreshed model has a more mature design with a sharper front end, and the new interior provides a comfortable and connected cabin. We’re confident about delivering the same appeal and accessibility that made its predecessor such a success.”
Order books for the new MG ZS Hybrid+ are open now, with it set to arrive in UK showrooms from October.
