Dave,I too should really have voted somewhere between options 2 and 3 . I AM very committed to EVs but up here in the Highlands am struggling with the actual practicality. As I mentioned in a separate thread, I am using the ICE for journeys of over 85 miles and if I need to dive in darkness or rain, as the speed of range reduction has caught me out too often.
I do have an ICE car for my business which is used regularly every day. Our MG ZS is my wife’s car. I am due to retire this coming year and we will simply sell my Business car at that time. We may look for another EV at that time. Our one issue with the ZS is it is on the limits for range for our needs, we regularly do long trips in the weekends and in the summer there is no issue, coming into the colder months it is struggling to cover the journey without a top up, not by much but we tend to do the top up just to be safe. Something with a slightly longer range would be the requirement. If MG came out with a longer range ZS or HS I would probably consider them if price was ok.Please only answer the poll if you are a ZS EV owner
How does the M3 compare to the ZS?I have a Tesla Model 3 SR+ and my wife has an MG ZS EV, so yes totally committed, but we also have a Mazda MX5 (SORN) in the garage for the fun summer months.
I get 2.5 regularly in winter.@AussiePete It's been as low as the mid 2s (2.5 - 2.9) !! On a nice day driving comfortably down the A9, I can get mid 4s even touching 5!! I NEVER seem to get the 200mile range experience that others speak of, and I'm not that fast a driver. But we do have a lot of hills as the term Highlands kinda implies!!
All - do you think changing to the LED headlight bulbs mentioned in other threads help the range reduction? But I am pretty risk-averse and would be uncomfortable knowingly breaking the law!!
Isn't an M3 a BMW ?How does the M3 compare to the ZS?
Yes. I suppose it’s better known than the Tesla. I guess that i should have been clearer. In the Tesla community they’re known as M3. So the M3P is the performance model. The M3SR+ is the model 3 short range plus model. ?Isn't an M3 a BMW ?![]()
