Vehicle Overview

The 2018 MG ZS Essence is a compact SUV that combines an elevated driving position with the manageable dimensions of a smaller urban vehicle. Its black exterior gives the ZS a restrained, contemporary appearance, while the five-seat cabin and split-folding rear seats provide useful flexibility for everyday errands, commuting and carrying larger items when required.

Power comes from a 1.0-litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine producing 160 Nm of torque, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. This combination is suited to straightforward daily driving, with the automatic gearbox keeping operation simple in traffic and on longer trips. The advertised fuel consumption is 6 L/100km, supported by a 48-litre fuel tank.

The Essence grade brings a practical equipment mix. An electric sunroof, leather-look seats, a leather steering wheel, automatic headlights and LED daytime running lamps add everyday convenience, while 17-inch alloy wheels and roof rails contribute to the SUV’s exterior presentation and utility. Inside, the multi-function colour display, trip computer, Bluetooth connectivity, USB and auxiliary audio inputs, Apple CarPlay and smart-device integration provide familiar ways to stay connected.

Parking and low-speed manoeuvring are assisted by a rear-view camera and rear parking distance control. Cruise control, keyless start, electric power steering, front and rear power windows, air conditioning and a pollen filter further support comfortable daily use. The cabin also includes a space-saver spare wheel and a flat-folding second row, giving the compact ZS useful versatility without requiring a large vehicle footprint.

Safety equipment includes electronic stability control, ABS with electronic brake-force distribution, brake assist, hill-holder functionality, tyre-pressure monitoring and front, side and head airbags. The vehicle is listed with a four-star ANCAP safety rating. With 65,068 kilometres, five seats, automatic transmission and front-wheel drive, this MG ZS presents a well-equipped compact SUV configuration with an emphasis on accessible running and practical urban usability.
