MG GROUP TEST: MG4 vs MG5 vs MG ZS - which is right for YOU? | Electrifying

These all are cheap Chinese garbage.

I can't believe I heard nothing about different ranges of the different MGs

Didn't drive the MG 4 yet. But between the MG 5 and the ZS EV.... I would always got with the ZS EV. It just feels better. Don't know why. You can see better, it lays better on the street and it's more comfortable to sit in. And...the trunk didn't feel much smaller than the MG5 one.

Why say ‘pounds per foot’ of torque?
Surely you mean ‘pounds feet’!

ZS owner dislike this review. sorry

For me the MG ZS is the best buy and the best looking of the 3. I like the MG4's specs but the styling doesnt do it for me - its trying to hard and looks like a boxy boat version of a gallardo. The ZS has more comfort and practicality and the most comfortable interior - esp for rear passengers

I drove a zs petrol for a few weeks and whilst the car was “nice”, the rear was too vague on the motorway and the controls in the cabin were too minimalist and lacked feedback….

They really need to revamp the MG5 Estate car. The MG4 just looks like a hatchback that is inflated itself like a puffer fish and the ZS like a shovel nose snake. The estate has all the practicality and smaller frontal area to make it go further on the highway. No one else makes a reasonably priced EV Estate...

MG owners forum are rife with poor build quality issues and dealer reluctance to fix them….choose wisely ….remember, “ buy cheap, buy twice “

Regarding space i set in an MG5 and ZS EV and found the MG5 to have way less space in the second row.

Correction - I get 11kw AC charging for MG 5.

We now have the MG4 available in Australia. What's even better we have one pedal driving, rear wiper and rear reversing camera and that's on the basic excite. 😊

I have the MG ZS EV MkII and my friend has the MG4. I disagree with you on the rear passenger space, the ZS is definitely bigger. While the seat down size maybe ever so slightly bigger in the MG4, the seat up is much bigger in the ZS. My friend uses a wheelchair and it's a bit of a tetris game getting everything in his MG4, but with the ZS it's no problem.

What next? Well I love the ZS, I am so tempted with the MG4 XPower (us old gits love annoying the youf!) but may well consider the MG5, as I have a lazy Greyhound who refuses to jump into the ZS! Weird or what! 🤣

We're going for the ZS over the M5 on the driving position and was disappointed the the MG5, despite being an estate, had quite a high tailgate at 65cm, which is quite a way for a dog to jump up and over into. The ZS's tailgate is about 2 cm higher but when your dog is already having to be Shergar it doesn't make too much difference. Come on EV manufacturers, please give us a low tailgate boot car like the MPVs and estates of old. It would be so much more practical for us dog owners, and I'd buy one virtually whatever the spec if it had a low boot for Fido!

My MG ZS can achieve, and regularly does, 10 miles per Kwh around town. Its only the 51 kw battery and recharges from 10 to 80 % at home in only 5 hours, 7kwh charger.

MG4 Estate would get my vote. Unlikely they’ll probably do a crossover version as they are bigger sellers.

If MG5 is bigger, like length comes to around 4.7-4.8m + flat rear seat when it is folded off+V2Lfunciton, I will give 95 out of 100. If it also give the technology of the MG4 like app and Bluetooth key support, I will give 99 out of 100!!!

As a new dad I can confirm all the extra stuff a baby needs to carry. :)

I prefer Mercedes EQE more.😊
