A group of MG ZS patent images has been circulated on Internet. Patent images show appearance of a new car. Based on current information, changes in all aspects of new car are still relatively large and there are many changes compared to current model.

First, this is design of front. The new car changed simple image of past MG ZS. The front end has undergone major changes. Headlights are integrated into entire front. Lens placement can only be considered qualified at this time. The design of center grille is quite interesting. Currently, it seems that a large area of ​​the closed design is used, which is slightly different from image of traditional cars. The air intake is in center grille, which looks more sporty. The bumper details echo the current model, with large air intakes on both sides, but it doesn't seem to have any real performance.

Compared to current model, lateral changes are not too great. The biggest change is reflected in rim design. The low rolling resistance five-spoke rim design is rarely used. Not to mention performance, visual impact. much stronger than cash.

The changes to rear of car are also relatively minor. So far, only bumper parts are visible. First impressions of tail.

In terms of power, new MG ZS will continue to be powered by a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine with a maximum output of 120 horsepower and a maximum torque of 150 Nm. It can choose a manual transmission or a CVT transmission. The parameters and performance of this power system can only be called average, and there are no big problems with everyday use. I believe that driving experience of new model will be consistent with current model.

Overview

From design of patent drawing, new MG ZS still has some obvious changes. A more fashionable front panel design makes ZS more attractive. Compared to old model, it has a positive improvement, but compared to current model, Sports version of car seems almost pointless. On other hand, this facelift has not changed mechanical part and it seems that driving aspect has not improved. As an entry-level model, its main objectives are economy and peace of mind.
