Hyundai Kona rival MG eZS Bookings To Commence In December; Price Reveal In January 2020

MG Motors’ second offering, eZS electric SUV will be revealed by the end of December this year and the bookings will commence by that time as well.

Hyundai Kona is got to get a rival in India, by the end of this year from the debutant, MG Motors. The MG eZS is confirmed for India for December 2019 as the second SUV from the British manufacturer.

It has now been launched in the global markets, for an introductory price of 24,955 Euros, which roughly converts to Rs 22 Lakhs in INR. That’s the actual expected price estimate of the eZS for the Indian market.

MG eZS will offer a driving range of 163 miles, or, 263 kms, as claimed by the company. The real-world range could come nearly up to 170 kms, which is actually not bad. But, Kona EV offers a much more range here.

The eZS comes with a 44.5 kWh battery packing, that produces around 143 BHP and 353 Nm of peak torque. However, suiting the market conditions in India, the MG eZS is expected to offer more driving range, also to keep the competition in check.

eZS has already been spied testing in India. It will be a CKD unit and will be assembled at MG Motor’s plant in Halol, Gujarat. This is the same plant from where Chevrolet manufactured the Beat, Cruze and other cars for us.

On the outside, it looks identical to the fuel-powered MG ZS, but gets a different front grille and an EV badging on the side fenders. The charging port will be inside the front grille, under the MG logo.

Features onboard will include a touchscreen infotainment system with Hector’s i-Smart technology, voice recognition, dual-zone climate control, panoramic sunroof, power-adjustable front seats, satellite navigation, projector headlamps and much more.

Safety features include ABS with EBD, Traction Control, Hill Hold control, ESP, Rear and Front parking sensors, 6-airbags and rear parking camera as the highlights. Globally, it comes in two variants – Excite and Exclusive. However, we expect only one variant to come to India.

In the UK, MG is offer a 7-year warranty on the car and the lithium-ion battery pack. In India, MG will offer a similar attractive deal on the warranty along with the car’s sales and service packages.
