MG Motor UK has opened the order books for the all-new MG ZS Hybrid+ with prices guaranteed to turn heads.

The new model builds on the success of the existing MG ZS, currently the brand’s second best-selling model in the UK, with substantial upgrades in technology, comfort and performance.

The MG ZS Hybrid+ is available in two trim levels, SE and Trophy, with the SE starting from just £21,995 and the range topping Trophy variant priced from £24,495. Both are supported by a 7-year/80,000-mile manufacturer’s warranty and a network of over 160 dealers.

Both models come generously equipped with full LED lighting front and rear, a 12.3-inch HD infotainment display with navigation and live services, a 7-inch virtual driver display, rear parking sensors with camera, automatic headlights, rain-sensing wipers, and keyless entry.

MG Pilot, which comprises a comprehensive range of safety and driver assistance technologies, is standard on both models, and includes adaptive cruise control, active emergency braking with pedestrian and bicycle detection, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, rear cross traffic alert, blind spot detection, forward collision warning, and traffic jam assist.

For an additional £2,500, the Trophy edition gains 18-inch ‘Sabre’ alloy wheels, rear privacy glass, leather style upholstery, heated front seats and steering wheel, a six-way electrically-adjustable driver’s seat with lumbar support, plus a 360-degree surround view camera.

The powerful yet efficient hybrid powertrain seamlessly integrates a 102PS 1.5-litre petrol engine with a 136PS/250Nm traction motor for a combined output of 196PS. This combination ensures a refined driving experience with excellent performance, reaching 62mph from rest in just 8.7 seconds.

The 1.83kWh high-voltage battery is recharged by a high-efficiency 45kW generator to offer the potential for significant savings in running costs, with an improved fuel economy of 55.4mpg (WLTP Combined) and low CO₂ emissions of 115g/km.

David Allison, Head of Product and Planning for MG Motor UK, said: “The all-new MG ZS Hybrid+ delivers an exceptional driving experience and incredible value in the B-SUV segment, featuring equipment and technologies that make daily life easier. The refreshed model has a more mature design with a sharper front-end, and the new interior provides a comfortable and connected cabin. We’re confident in delivering the same appeal and accessibility that made its predecessor such a success.”

The MG ZS Hybrid+ is available to order now, with first deliveries to MG dealerships starting in October 2024.
