MG ZS Hybrid+: A Smarter, Greener, and More Powerful Drive



The automotive market is rapidly shifting toward electrification, and MG is keeping pace with its latest innovation—the MG ZS Hybrid+. Designed to deliver a balance of performance, efficiency, and practicality, this hybrid SUV is tailored for drivers who want the best of both worlds: dynamic gasoline power and efficient electric technology.


Powertrain and Performance


At the heart of the MG ZS Hybrid+ is a 1.5L four-cylinder DOHC gasoline engine paired with a permanent magnet synchronous motor. Together, they produce an impressive combined system output of 196 PS (194 hp) and 465 Nm of torque, ensuring smooth yet powerful acceleration.

•Top Speed: 168 km/h

•Fuel Efficiency: As low as 5.1 L/100 km (55.4 mpg) under WLTP standards

•CO2 Emissions: 115 g/km


Drivers can tailor their experience with Eco, Normal, and Sport modes, while the advanced KERS energy regeneration system enhances efficiency by converting braking energy back into usable power. The system is supported by a 1.83 kWh Nickel Manganese Cobalt battery and an advanced 3-speed hybrid transmission (HT11), giving the SUV a refined and responsive drive.
