Seven day test review from Australia.

[TassiedEVil]

This is quite a reasonable review from one of our leading auto journos.
it doesn’t really uncover any surprises for ZS EV owners but his mention of the battery warranty uncertainty particularly in Oz needs to be addressed...

Seven-day test: Living with the MG ZS EV - EV Central

It's not perfect, but the MG ZS EV tackles plenty of family duties in a week without using a drop of unleaded petrol.

Interesting. A good practical review. I see 8 Years battery warranty (but lack of detail). I wonder if battery warranties generally change around the world to take into account local conditions, climate etc?

Yes, that would be very interesting to know...

I bet that car Journo down your neck o the woods John Cadogan could sort MG out.

No doubt! Always entertaining and controversial...his Kona EV review from Feb is quite 'jolly' and his scathing diatribe re VW in Australia - ouch!!!
He published this article on Chinese carmakers which (if you scroll down to the MG EV section) seems fairly favourable. But I'm not sure if he's done any sort of road testing yet.

Thanks for those links Tas (though the Kona one doesn't work?). In the 'Chinese carmakers' one he links to another article about his 'perfect EV' which is really interesting/controversial.

Edit: I found the Kona review here

Try this Kona link...
Yeah, he's a hoot...

I have been working on getting an answer from MG Australia on the body & battery warranty for a while. Will post outcome if I can get one.

Excellent- thanks for that - should be interesting...
