The British MG brand, which is part of the Chinese corporation SAIC, has updated the electric crossover ZS EV. The car is not only refreshed exterior, but also increased autonomy due to the new power plant. The model will receive two versions of the battery. With the basic 51 kWh one MG ZS EV will be able to drive up to 319 kilometers. A more powerful one – with a capacity of 72 kWh – will increase autonomy to 439 kilometers. For comparison, the pre-styled electric crossover had only 44.5 kWh and 262 kilometers of range. The electric car differs from the gasoline model of the same name, which has also been recently updated, by the absence of a radiator grille, a front bumper with smaller air intakes and a rear bumper without cutouts for exhaust pipes.

Special features
The LED headlights and lights in cars with different power units do not differ. The only change in the interior is the media system with a 10.1-inch display. It has expanded the possibilities of synchronization with a smartphone and added a number of new functions. Some systems of the electric car can now be controlled through a mobile application on a smartphone. Last month, MG shared information about the Maze concept. Its creators were inspired by video games, and the car can be used as a game simulator. And the one-wheeled car itself reminds some gadget.
