Electric FAQ's

Is Electric right for me?

Deciding whether an electric car is right for you comes down to the sort of driving you'll use it for. If you cover no more than between 150 - 200 miles per day, and have access to a charging point at home or work, then the answer is that our New MG ZS EV or MG5 EV Long Range are ideal for you. And with the UK's EV charging network growing rapidly, it means finding a place to plug your car in is easier than ever before. Plus the cost of electricity to power an EV is about a third of that for petrol or diesel. And these are just some of the reasons why electric may be right for you.
