MG ZS EV is Now Affordable: 99kW Motor Introduced in Nepal!

MG ZS EV is now more affordable in Nepal.

Paramount Motors, the authorized distributor of MG vehicles in Nepal, has launched two new variants of its highly-popular electric SUV.

With the introduction of the 99kW Motor, there are a total of three variants available for the MG ZS EV.

We will talk about the difference between battery and motor in a bit.

Nevertheless, MG Nepal will offer both Standard Range and Long Range for the Nepali market.

Interested individuals can pre-book their MG ZS EV 99kW by paying a token amount of Rs. 1 Lakhs.

With that said, here is a complete look at the all-new MG ZS EV in Nepal along with its key specifications for 2023.

MG ZS EV Overview

Design

MG ZS EV sports a familiar styling.

It takes inspiration from its past iteration. However, there are a few interesting changes this time around.

The front section ditches out chromed-grilled for a more EV-inspired styling.

It sports a new integrated body-colored front grille along with a hidden charging port. Moreover, the Projector Headlamp and sleek LED DRLs build an aggressive profile.

The diffuser has also been redesigned with chromed lines.

However, the side profile continues to remain the same. There are straight crease lines with a fair amount of chrome at the window border.

Also, it includes stylish alloy wheels as standard.

Moving to the rear section, there are no major changes. It gets a sleeker Tail Lamp with body-colored bumpers. 

The interiors go in length with attention to detail with distinctive design. There is no compromise on comfort or convenience.

Nevertheless, there are a few changes to its Infotainment System and Climate Control Buttons.

Additionally, MG ZS EV comes in five different colors: White, Black, Blue, Grey, and Red.

Performance

MG ZS EV comes in two motor options: 99kW and 115kW.

Moreover, it gets a 51kWh Hi-Tech Battery with a 320 km claimed range.

Similarly, the Long Range is powered by a 115kW Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM). It generates a max power of 156PS and a max torque of 280 Nm.

Furthermore, it comes with a 72.6kWh Hi-Tech Battery with a 440 Km claimed range.

While both variants support DC Fast Charging, it gets an onboard 11kW charger. So, it can charge in less then 10 hours.

The overall specs and features remain the same. However, there is a bit of cost-cutting in the ‘COMFORT’ variant.

MG ZS EV Comfort does not get features like Seat Heating, Sunroof, Roof Rails, Blind Spot Detection, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Wireless Phone Charger, and more.

These features are present in DELUXE and LONG RANGE.

MG ZS EV Price in Nepal and Availability

Talking about the pricing, the MG ZS EV price in Nepal starts at Rs. 48,49,000 to Rs. 81,99,000. Moreover, it will be available in three unique variants.

MG ZS is currently available for bookings.

Interested individuals can contact the nearest MG Showroom for additional details.

The following is the latest list of the MG ZS EV price in Nepal for June 2023.

Last year, Govt had increased tax on EVs with 100kW Motor or higher. Due to this, many auto brands reintroduced premium EVs with Motors under 100kW.

Hyundai Ioniq 5 and BYD Atto 3 faced a similar fate.

It is wild to think that Hyundai Ioniq 5 was available for Rs. 81.99 Lakhs just a few months ago.

MG ZS EV competes with BYD Atto 3.

BYD Atto 3 comes across as a better value with its leading quirks and features. While MG ZS EV comes close to that regard, MG still needs to work on its charging infrastructure.
