Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

MG ZS EV
- Understated and classy styling
- Rich interior quality. Feels very upmarket
- Good features list - 10.1-inch touchscreen, digital instrument cluster, etc.
- Realistically achievable range of 300-350km on a full charge
Tata Nexon
- Futuristic design with interesting details: LED daytime running lamps and tail lamps with animations, 16-inch alloy wheels, and full-LED headlamps. Gives it great road presence.
- Has every imaginable feature: panoramic sunroof, front seat ventilation, 360° camera, leatherette upholstery. Feels premium.
- Impressive infotainment package: 10.25-inch touchscreen, 10.25-inch driver’s display and a brilliant JBL sound system.
- Available with petrol and diesel engines, both offered with automatic transmissions.

MG ZS EV
- Rear seat space is good but some may expect a roomier experience for the price
- Boot space could’ve been more generous
- EV charging infrastructure is inconsistent. Home/work charging and the portable charger will be more dependable than public charging
- Some ergonomic flaws - lumbar cushioning feels excessive, front armrest may be too tall for short drivers
Tata Nexon
- Interior storage space is poor. No cupholders, lack of space for phones/wallets hampers everyday usability.
- Fit and finish could be improved in the interior. Misaligned panels take away from the experience.
