The MG ZS has plenty in its favour, not least its low price and the fact that you get lots of equipment as standard. It also impresses for performance and fuel economy, and has roomy rear seats and a big boot. It's just a pity it's not better to drive and that the driving position won't work for everyone. Entry-level SE trim represents the best value for money.

Entry-level SE trim is our chosen version to go for. Why? Well, it keeps costs to a minimum but still comes with standard equipment that includes 17in alloy wheels, keyless entry, air-conditioning, adaptive cruise control, automatic LED headlights, a leather-trimmed steering wheel and a 10.1in touchscreen infotainment system with DAB radio, Bluetooth, built-in sat-nav and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone mirroring.

With its usable battery power of 49kWh, the entry-level MG ZS EV can officially travel around 198 miles between charges while giving you decent enough performance. It’ll cover 0-62mph in just over 8.0sec, which isn’t all that brisk but fast enough that you won’t struggle to reach motorway speeds quickly.
