The MG ZS is a compact crossover that was first released in 2017 and by 2021 had become Australia's top-selling small SUV on the back of keen pricing and a value-packed equipment list. It was aided in its cause by the more upmarket ZST version and then the battery-electric variant that arrived as the country's cheapest EV in 2020. The second-generation MG ZS was launched in late 2024.
