What happens when you add a turbo to a car? Well, great things happen to it, and that is just the case with the 2022 MG ZST. An upgraded version of the MG ZS crossover that blazed a trail back when it first launched. Now in its 2022 model year, here's our review of the brand new subcompact crossover from the British brand in the Philippines. Welcome to our Behind the Wheel review.
I give this car to my wife as a birthday present and she's so happy with the features and comfort of this car. By the way thanks to MG congressional and my sales advisor as well... Will post my review about after sale service in the future.
A drive from Cavite to Manila gave me a fuel economy of 10km/l, and that's with only light to moderate traffic and a trip on the expressway.that's 4 liters of premium fuel by the way.
Besides my problem with fuel economy, I think the MG ZST is a good buy for first time car owners like me, as it's tech features, like the rear cross traffic alert, blind spot monitoring, and the 360 camera, have really helped elevate my driving experience.
