Water wading capacity
MG has the
water wading capacity of the ZS EV and the model wades through the water with more
than 50 per-cent of the wheels submerged inside while the body of the car
hardly touches the water for a brief period. The ZS EV effortlessly passes
through without stalling.
Fast Charging
MG
ZS EV’s rapid charging enables longer drives by putting up with as much range
as possible in a small period of time. Charging power decreases significantly
after state-of-charge reaches 80%. A typical rapid charge however barely
exceeds above 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger
used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle.
