MG Motor India has introduced the 2022 ZS EV in India. The ZS EV was the company’s first electric SUV in the country when it debuted in 2020, and it now gets a mid-life refresh. The vehicle’s appearance has changed significantly, but the overall silhouette remains largely unchanged. There are two options available: Excite and Exclusive. The ZS EV starts at Rs. 21.99 lakh (Excite) and goes all the way up to Rs. 25.88 lakh (Exclusive). The company also announced that the Excite variant will be available in July of this year, while the Exclusive variant is already available! The last time the ZS EV was released in India, prices started at Rs. 19.88 lakh, which was very competitive given that the Hyundai Kona was also released around the same time.
