Review by topic

Safety and driver assistance

4 airbags
  • The MG ZS handles Philippine expressway driving adequately for a budget compact SUV, though it reveals its limitations when compared to turbocharged and ADAS-equipped competitors.
  • The 1.5L naturally aspirated engine with 112 hp and 150 Nm provides sufficient power for maintaining 80-100 km/h cruising on NLEX and SLEX, but overtaking requires careful planning, building speed before lane changes is essential, as the CVT takes 2-3 seconds to downshift and deliver meaningful acceleration.
  • Standard cruise control on the Alpha variant is a genuine advantage for long drives on TPLEX, helping maintain consistent speed and reducing right-foot fatigue.

Gearbox

CVT
  • Powered by a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine producing 112 hp and 150 Nm through a CVT, the ZS prioritizes smooth cruising and everyday practicality over outright performance.

Comfort and refinement

  • NVH is moderate, the cabin is acceptably quiet at 90 km/h but wind noise from the large side mirrors and roof rails becomes pronounced above 100 km/h.
  • The 2025 MG ZS is one of the most accessible compact SUVs in the Philippine market, offering a spacious cabin, modern British-heritage design, and a generous feature set at a price point that undercuts most Japanese competitors.

What works

  • Standard cruise control on Alpha variant helps reduce fatigue on long expressway drives
  • 30 MG dealers nationwide, larger service network than Geely (20) and Subaru (12)
  • Modern 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment on Alpha with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
  • 359L trunk is practical for weekend road trips and daily errands

What to weigh

  • 112 hp naturally aspirated engine lacks punch for confident expressway overtaking
  • Only 4 airbags, below the 6-airbag standard offered by Honda, Hyundai, and Geely competitors
  • Average 15 km/L highway fuel efficiency trails segment leaders by 20-30%
  • MG resale value in the Philippines is still uncertain, brand has limited long-term track record
  • CVT feels sluggish during sudden acceleration requests, with noticeable 2-3 second delay

What are the common problems of the MG ZS?

Common issues reported by Philippine MG ZS owners include the CVT's sluggish response when requesting sudden acceleration, moderate cabin noise at highway speeds above 100 km/h, and occasional infotainment system lag when switching between apps.

Is the MG ZS good for long expressway drives?

The MG ZS Alpha is adequate for long expressway drives with cruise control helping manage speed on NLEX and TPLEX. The comfortable seating and spacious cabin reduce fatigue. However, the absence of ADAS features means the driver must remain fully attentive for speed and lane management, and the 112 hp engine lacks the overtaking confidence of turbocharged rivals on 3-4 hour highway runs.

MG ZS vs Toyota Raize, which is the better budget SUV?

The Raize has better fuel efficiency (21 vs 15 km/L), higher ground clearance (200 vs 175mm), lighter weight (1,020 vs 1,280 kg), and Toyota's unmatched dealer network. The ZS offers more interior space, a more powerful engine (112 vs 86 hp), cruise control on the Alpha, and a panoramic sunroof. For expressway fuel economy, the Raize wins. For cabin space and features per peso, the ZS Alpha offers more.
