MG ZS EV Long Term Review — The Long Run

By Ninad Ambre30 Dec 2022

Our long-term MG ZS has been put through its paces within the city for almost three months. I've been wanting to drive it out of the city limits but still not wanting to waste time charging it at an unknown place. After enough thought and a little planning into it, I set out to utilise its driving range to the maximum.
