Can the MG ZS EV tow? Need to take your bikes along? MG ZS EV Towbars now available.

Affordable, practical and extremely likeable, the battery-powered MG ZS EV is creating a storm - but can it tow? Need to take your bikes along?

The ZS sits towards the more practical side of the small SUV market, offering more space than many of the alternatives.  

Manufacturing costs remain high for electric vehicles so few makers are able to offer prices anywhere near those of petrol or diesel equivalents. Despite this, MG has managed to deliver a pure electric SUV at a very attractive price which is ultimately its main weapon in attracting buyers.

The growing demand for small EVs means the ZS EV could be ideally positioned to be one of MG’s best selling cars.

The ZS isn’t a hero in the fun handling department, but for some this won’t matter one jot. Like many electric cars, the ZS EV is brilliantly easy to drive. Turn it on, select drive with the simple rotary controller, press the accelerator pedal and you’re away. The driving mode selector is equally straightforward and helps drivers prioritise between efficiency or performance. 

Driving in town is incredibly easy and thanks to the immediate availability of torque, nipping away from traffic lights and out of junctions isn’t stressful at all. Furthermore, there is a toggle switch in the centre console that is used to adjust the amount of regenerative braking applied when a driver lifts off the throttle. There are four settings that range from no regeneration to one that MG claims offers “near one-pedal driving” by slowing the car quickly when the accelerator is released. With a bit of practice, drivers will find that MG isn’t far off the mark with that claim.

Zero tailpipe emissions and rock-bottom running costs await drivers of MG’s electric SUV.

Thanks to its boxy shape, the ZS EV is quite practical despite its compact dimensions and is ideally suited to those with kids, dogs or both. 
MG has managed to make sure that adding a big battery hasn’t translated to a tiny boot. With all seats in place, there is 470 litres available and with the rears down you get 1,100 litres.

While many MG ZS EVs have no tow rating, it can be fitted with a bicycle carrier. The maximum tow bar load is 75 kg.  We have a bicycle carrier towbar now available.  Check your owner's manual - depending on your specs, your MG could be rated for a maximum of 450kgs - we have a towbar rated the same.

The feature-filled MG ZS EV is the first truly affordable, new, electric family SUV that makes no concessions in terms of style, comfort or space.
With a towbar, you can now take your bikes along on your next weekend away.
