Introducing the new MG ZS
If you want a family-friendly SUV that feels easy to drive from day one, the new MG ZS is a great place to start. It blends a practical cabin and a generous boot with modern driver assistance that helps with the parts of driving people often find stressful - busy roundabouts, motorway lane changes, and tight car parks.
This latest MG ZS takes a clear step forward in day-to-day tech and comfort, with features like a large floating infotainment screen and improved driver assistance available across the range. The end result is a car that feels up to date without being complicated.
When you're ready to try it for yourself, you can book a test drive with Vertu and see how the MG ZS fits into your routine.

New MG ZS FAQs
Is the new MG ZS easy to park in tight spaces?
Yes, it suits everyday parking well. The MG ZS gives you a clear driving position, and the parking assistance tech on selected trims helps you judge distances with more confidence. If you do a lot of supermarket and school car park driving, look for versions with enhanced camera support, as it makes reversing into bays and checking for pedestrians much easier.
What insurance group is the new MG ZS in?
Insurance groups can vary by insurer and exact specification, but MG ZS models are often listed across a broad range (commonly around groups 10-18). As a general rule, SE versions tend to sit towards the lower end compared to Trophy, because higher trims usually cost more to repair and replace. The quickest way to confirm the exact group for the MG ZS you want is to check a quote using the specific trim and model year.
What warranty cover should I expect on a new MG ZS?
MG is known for strong warranty cover. Typically, you can expect a seven-year/80,000-mile manufacturer warranty on the car (terms apply), which is reassuring if you plan to keep the MG ZS for several years. On hybrid systems and high-voltage components, warranty cover can differ, so it's always worth confirming the details for the exact version you choose.
Which new MG ZS trim should I choose?
Go for SE if you want the core MG ZS experience with the key tech and safety features at the keenest price point. If you like extra comfort and convenience features that you feel every day�especially in winter and in stop-start traffic�Trophy is usually the better fit, thanks to upgrades like the heated steering wheel and higher-spec parking support.
Should I choose a fixed or flexible servicing plan for a new MG ZS?
A fixed plan can suit you if you like predictable costs and you want to keep everything simple year to year. A flexible approach can work well if your annual mileage changes or you prefer to pay as you go. Either way, keeping on top of routine checks helps your MG ZS stay in great shape, so it's worth comparing options with our MG servicing team.
Are the tech features of the new MG ZS easy to use?
They are, and the layout helps. The 12.3-inch floating infotainment screen keeps navigation clear and reduces the need to squint at smaller displays, while key functions stay easy to find day to day. Once your phone is connected and your favourite routes are saved, the system fits naturally into regular driving�school runs, commuting, and weekend trips.
