MG ZS EV Engine Specifications & Dimensions

50.3 kWh
Battery Total energy the battery pack can store, in kilowatt-hours. Bigger number = more range, like a bigger fuel tank. 50.3 kWh
Certified range Distance on one full charge under the named test cycle (MIDC / ARAI / WLTP). Real-world range is usually 20-30% lower with AC on and at highway speeds. 461 km (OEM-certified; test cycle not named)
Motor The electric motor type. Permanent-magnet motors are the compact, efficient kind used in most EVs. Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor
Motor power Peak output of the motor, in bhp (and kW). Decides how quick the car feels; an EV gives all of it instantly. 174 bhp (130 kW)
Motor torque Pulling force from the motor, in Nm. EVs deliver full torque from standstill, which is why they feel punchy in town. 280 Nm
Drivetrain Which wheels are driven: FWD (front), RWD (rear) or AWD (all four, usually with two motors). FWD
0–100 km/h Manufacturer-claimed time to reach 100 km/h from rest. Lower is quicker. 0-100 km/h in 8.5 s
DC fast charging Public fast charger: the highest power the car accepts and how long 10-80% takes. Charging slows above 80% to protect the battery. 0-80% in ~60 min (50 kW DC)
AC charging Home or office charging from a wall box or a 15 A socket, and how long a full charge takes. This is how most owners charge overnight. 0-100% in 8.5-9 hrs (7.4 kW - optional); 3.3 kW AC home charging box optional
Charging connector The plug standard. CCS2 is the Indian norm, so the car works at almost every public fast charger. CCS2
Regenerative braking When you lift off or brake, the motor works as a generator and puts energy back into the battery. Higher levels slow the car more without the brake pedal; the strongest setting allows one-pedal driving. KERS - 3 levels
Drive modes Presets that change throttle response and power. Eco stretches range; Sport gives the sharpest response. Eco, Normal, Sport
Battery IP rating Sealing rating of the battery and motor. IP67 means dust-tight and safe in up to 1 m of water for 30 minutes, so waterlogged roads are not a worry. IP69K (battery also ASIL-D and UL2580 certified)
Battery warranty How long the manufacturer covers the high-voltage battery, usually in years and km, whichever comes first. Lifetime means for as long as the first owner keeps the car. 8 Years / 1,50,000 km
