MG ZS EV recalls in Australia
We found no recalls for the MG ZS EV on the Australian recall register. The register can't be searched in bulk, so still enter the car's VIN at vehiclerecalls.gov.au before you buy.
Battery and warranty
8 yrs / 160,000 km. The warranty runs from when the car was first sold, so a 2021 car has about 3 years left and a 2023 car about 5 years left. Ask for a battery health (state of health) report before you buy: how to check the battery, including independent tests from about $200. If it ever needs one: what a new battery costs.
Running costs
At 250 km a week with NSW prices, a 2022–24 update MG ZS EV costs about $16 a week charged mostly at home, or $31 on public fast chargers.
