JSW MG Motors all set to launch next generation MG ZS EV
MG Motors India is working on the next generation MG ZS EV and Astor, as the company was the first to introduce an electric SUV in the mid-size e-SUV segment. The ZS EV clicked the minds of Indian consumers as the company simply introduced a global model to local markets.
Currently, JSW MG Motors will be phasing out the Astor and ZS EV platform and will be upgrading it with a new architecture that will be the foundation of upcoming mid-side electric SUVs.
Next Generation MG ZS EV Technical Details
This upcoming mid-size electric SUV will be underpinned by MG’s new modular SIGMA (SAIC Intelligent Global Modular Architecture) platform.
This platform will be developing cars such as the 4.5-meter MG One SUV in markets abroad and can also accommodate ICE powertrains, fully-electric, and hybrids, thus giving flexibility to MG Motors as a single platform is an ultimate solution to offer ICE EV and PHEV all in one architecture.
The next generation models will also come with advanced technologies and features, which is compulsory in order to compete with segment leaders like Hyundai Creta. However, the company has not revealed the exact details of the next-generation MG ZS EV.
JSW-MG Motors Vision for India
MG has lined up a series of products for the Indian market. One of the upcoming cars could be IM6 which is expected to be launched by October this year, and could go against the likes of Mahindra XUV 7XO, which could be launched sometime this year.
JSW-MG Motors is investing USD 440 million in order to increase the capacity and produce a fresh range of new electric vehicles. Currently, the company is heavily dependent on cars like MG Windsor EV, which has bagged India's best-selling electric car in 2025.
