With all the features it offers at that price, the MG has no competition. A BMW X1 of similar dimensions with a few extra upgrades costs more than twice as much, and considering that 40% of MG’s spare parts come from Germany (Bosch, Continental, etc.), I’d go for the MG ZS Hybrid without a second thought.

KGM Musso EV

The Musso EV blends pickup practicality with an electric drivetrain, delivering quiet performance and a roomy, well-equipped cabin that suits both work and everyday use. Its robust design and straightforward controls make it a compelling choice for buyers who want a capable utility vehicle with cleaner operation.
