MG Gloster & ZS EV: Contrasting Drives
खबर का सार AI ने दिया · News Team ने रिव्यु किया
The MG Gloster is a huge, heavy SUV offering a soft ride, but can be challenging in crowded city lanes.
The MG ZS EV is light, quiet, and provides instant power, making it ideal for city commutes.
While Gloster excels in stable long-distance travel, ZS EV requires careful charging planning for highway use.
The first thing you notice is the size MG Gloster looks huge The kind of huge where you almost hesitate before taking a tight turn I remember the first time I drove the MG Gloster inside a crowded market lane My left mirror almost kissed a fruit cart The salesman just said careful sir and walked away like it was normal.
ZS EV is the opposite Quiet Light Easy It moves like a phone that suddenly got extra battery and wants to run But the moment the charge drops a little the confidence also drops and you start checking numbers more than the road.
MG Gloster has that big diesel dhum noise It tries to act calm but whenever you press the pedal a little hard it takes a second to wake up Turbo lag hits sometimes City drives get annoying MG Gloster on highways feels calmer though long straight roads suit it.
ZS EV reacts quicker Instant pull No delay But the claimed range is like those old school promises which sound sweet and break easily MG once said the EV can go long but on my Gurgaon to Jaipur run I had to hunt for a charger mid way So yes real world is different.

Daily comfort and the mood it creates
MG Gloster gives a sofa like ride Soft Sometimes too soft If the road waves even slightly the cabin moves like a slow boat Seats are wide and comfy though Good for people who travel hours and hours.
ZS EV is stiffer It feels nice inside city roads but when you hit broken patches your back gets a small reminder that softness is missing MG Gloster simply eats such patches better.
Tech moments and those strange little issues
Once my MG Gloster screen went blank for two to three seconds I was switching to the camera and it just froze My friend sitting next to me said bro is this normal I had no answer.
ZS EV also gave me a funny moment Car locked Charger plugged App not showing charging status Dealer said network issue Maybe Maybe not.
Ownership and the stuff nobody mentions openly
MG Gloster is not a cheap car to maintain Big SUV means big bills Simple truth MG Gloster also drinks more fuel in slow traffic.
ZS EV feels cheaper to maintain because there is no oil stuff but then charging infrastructure in many apartments is a full time headache Permission approvals Wiring confusion Slow chargers All of that makes you think twice.
What actually makes sense
If your life has highway trips family luggage and long distance runs MG Gloster fits more naturally Even with its small flaws MG Gloster gives that heavy confidence.
If your daily run is short inside the city and you enjoy the quiet EV feel ZS EV is fun until that battery number starts sinking.
My final honest take without any fancy summary
I enjoy ZS EV for the city But the moment I want that big bold feel MG Gloster comes back in my mind MG Gloster is strong ZS is smart Your life decides the winner not specs on paper.
