Compare the MG HS vs MG ZS
AI generated from our expert reviews
If you need maximum carrying capacity, the MG HS is longer than the MG ZS, can tow heavier loads, and gives you a larger boot. Inside, both SUVs leave room for a six-foot passenger to sit behind a driver of similar height. Out on twisty roads, both cars have light steering that gives you very little feedback about what the front wheels are doing, meaning neither is particularly satisfying to drive quickly. Where they diverge is in comfort and refinement. The HS has pretty soft suspension that handles bigger bumps without too much thudding, alongside well-contained wind and road noise on the motorway. By contrast, the ZS has quite firm suspension that lets you feel more of the road's lumps and bumps, and it suffers from quite a lot of wind and road noise at speed.
