The electric ZS has been around for a while now but received a major facelift in 2022, with a blanked-off grille and a choice of 51kWh or 72kWh batteries. The longer-range version will put an official 440km between charges, but it doesn’t have the fastest charge-up speeds for longer journeys. The interior looks and feels a bit cheap, but it’s very well priced.
