After the Hector in the second quarter (April-June),
MG will launch the EZS in India as its second product in the country. The second SUV will arrive around
October this year. The MG EZS is the pure electric variant of the MG ZS, which is one of
the several models SAIC is testing in India. It was introduced at the 2018
Guangzhou Auto Show in November. It uses an electric motor that generates 150 hp and 350 Nm of torque and draws energy from a 45.6 kWh battery pack.
The MG EZS can accelerate from 0-50 km/h in 3.1
seconds. Its battery takes six hours for a full charge using an AC charger.
Using a DC charger, charging to 80% capacity takes 30 minutes. On a full
charge, the pure electric SUV offers a driving range (NEDC) of 335 km.
According to a new report from Overdrive, India will
get the MG EZS as a CBU import from China. 250 units are planned for import at
the moment. The TOI report says that the zero-emission SUV is likely to cost
nearly INR 20 lakh in our market.
