The New MG ZS Hybrid+ – Efficiency Meets Dynamics

The new MG ZS Hybrid+ review: 197 hp full hybrid power & massive tax advantage

Published by Autohaus Bauer | Location Bruck an der Leitha

Compact, dynamic, and extremely economical: With the brand-new MG ZS Hybrid+, MG Motor redefines the compact hybrid SUV segment. At Autohaus Bauer in Bruck an der Leitha, we present this hit model that not only excites with a substantial 197 hp system output, but also saves drivers in Austria real money on insurance!

Drivetrain & Performance: 197 hp without a plug

The heart of the new ZS is its intelligent full hybrid drive (HEV). The system combines the best of both worlds without ever needing a charging cable:
– Efficient 1.5-litre petrol engine: 102 hp (75 kW)
– Powerful electric motor: 136 hp (100 kW, 250 Nm)
– Impressive system output: 197 hp (145 kW) for effortless pulling power when overtaking and on motorway journeys (0-100 km/h in just 8.7 seconds!).
– Self-charging & fully automatic: Whether gliding purely on electric power in city traffic or using the petrol engine – the control electronics manage everything seamlessly for minimal fuel consumption (approx. 5.0–5.1 l/100 km according to WLTP).

The Austria Advantage: Drive with 197 hp, insure only 102 hp!

A true highlight for all drivers in Austria: Since only the output of the combustion engine is used to calculate the engine-related insurance tax on full hybrids, you only pay monthly tax for 102 hp (75 kW)! You enjoy the driving dynamics and peak performance of nearly 200 hp while saving month after month on fixed costs.

Compact outside, practical everyday usability inside

With an overall length of exactly 4.43 metres (4,430 mm), the MG ZS Hybrid+ is agile and easy to manoeuvre in city traffic, yet offers complete versatility for everyday life and leisure:
– 443 litres of boot space – ideal for shopping, luggage, and pushchairs.
– Expandable up to 1,457 litres with the rear seats folded down.
– Modern features: High-quality digital cockpit (12.3-inch touchscreen), Apple CarPlay / Android Auto, and comprehensive MG Pilot safety systems as standard.
