ایم جی ZS 2022

Morris Garages (MG) Motors, a Chinese-owned British automotive company, has launched its second car in Pakistan. The MG ZS is a subcompact crossover SUV and an affordable toned-down version of the MG HS. Internationally, the car comes in three variants: 5-Speed Manual, 6-Speed Manual, and 6-Speed Automatic. The one available in Pakistan is the 5-Speed Manual. 

MG Motors acquired the greenfield status under the Automotive Development Policy 2016-20. Javed Afridi, the CEO of Haier Pakistan, partnered with the company to set up a vehicle assembly plant in Pakistan. MG Pakistan, then, debuted in the local market with MG HS in November 2020, which received an overwhelming response from the public.

MG ZS will follow the path of its older sibling, the HS, and turn many heads in the local auto market. Other than excellent features, the MG car has the cheapest price tag and is the most affordable SUV in Pakistan.
