MG ZS EV vs Nissan X-Trail [2004-2009]

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.

It's been a month of driving this MG ZS EV. The best thing is I got to terms with it within the first week of driving it. The biggest myth that got busted is 'Electrics are boring'. So we'll get to how interesting it is and if and how similar it is to conventional ICE vehicles. This month involved a lot of driving within the city and here's how the ZS fared.

Electric is the future! We have heard this line infinite times and when it comes to cars, thankfully, we do have a few electric versions here in India. Ever since childhood, playing with toy RC electric cars has enticed me. Little did I know if it would actually be practical to have a life-sized one! And now, here I am at a juncture, where apart from my journalistic duties of testing cars, I'm about to experience the ownership of the MG ZS EV as we welcome it into CarWale’s long-term fleet.
