MG eZS was recently revealed at the 2018 Guangzhou Motor Show in China, clearly showing the stance of second MG product for India. The brand will launch one exclusive SUV in India with 45 dealers in the first stage and bring this EV to the country later in 2019. The car looks identical in most aspects to the conventional fuel model but comes finished in a new Blue shade and different 5-spoke alloy wheels. The charging port is hidden under the front grille for a neat presentation. On the inside, the electric SUV is equipped with a panoramic sunroof, bigger infotainment screen, and reprogrammed MID.

The car offers 0-50 kph in 3.1 seconds and produces close to 150 hp of maximum power. MG Motor is expected to bring the eZS in India through the CKD route, assembling the parts and even battery components here for cost-effective production. The battery cells are to be sourced from China.
