Estimated prices by model year, from its price when new and typical EV depreciation, and the real-world range you can expect today after about 2% battery wear a year. These are estimates, not valuations: mileage, condition and battery health make a big difference.

Summary
The MG ZS EV Standard Range is a 5-seat SUV with front-wheel drive, sold new from 2021 to 2025, when it cost £30,495 in the UK, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 8.6 seconds, slower than 78% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 165 miles (265 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That puts it among the shortest-range 10% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 233rd of 242 SUVs.
It uses around 3.4 mi/kWh (185 Wh/km), about the same as the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 49 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 50 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 160 miles (257 km) at motorway speeds.
No heat pump is listed for this version, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery.
Second-hand, a 2021 example is estimated at £8,400–£10,400 and a 2025 one at £17,400–£19,800, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2021 car should still manage about 149 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
