MG ZS EV Trophy Long Range 72kWh
Replaced in 2025 by the MG S5 EV · Compare old and new
The MG ZS EV Trophy Long Range 72kWh is among the more affordable SUVs available to buy. It charges more slowly than most rivals, only about 39 miles in 10 minutes.
By eight years on the road it should still hold about 90% of its battery health, roughly 298 km of real-world range, which is a useful yardstick if you’re buying used. What owners say: Excellent value compared with rivals such as Tesla and VW, supported by well-equipped trim levels. Software and app problems include infotainment glitches and connectivity issues where signals are weak.

What Owners Say
PositiveOwners Love
- Excellent value compared with rivals such as Tesla and VW, supported by well-equipped trim levels.
- Very low running costs versus petrol when using an off-peak charging tariff
- Good real-world range of 200-270 miles in mixed conditions, with comfortable reserves from the 72.6 kWh battery.
Watch Out For
- Software and app problems include infotainment glitches and connectivity issues where signals are weak.
- At a steady 70 mph, real-world motorway range is limited to typically 160-180 miles before a charging stop.
- Winter range falls significantly to 200-220 miles, compared with more than 250 miles in summer.
Owner Tips
- Keep running costs low by charging at home on an off-peak tariff
- Choose the Long Range (72.6 kWh) battery for a comfortable range reserve on longer trips; Standard Range (51 kWh) is adequate only for daily commutes below the 120-mile mark.
- Make full use of the iSmart App’s pre-conditioning, battery monitoring and remote controls to maximise efficiency and convenience.
