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.

MG ZS EV Long Term Review — The Daily Grind

By Ninad Ambre30 Oct 2022

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.
