MG & Pod Point Get Charged up with New Partnership
Posted by Roseanne: Oct 03, 2019 • 2 min read
We’re thrilled to announce a new three-year preferred supplier deal with MG Motor UK.
With deliveries of the MG ZS starting to arrive on UK shores, it couldn’t have happened at a more exciting time.
The MG ZS is a family friendly EV with a 44.5kWh battery, which is capable of up to 163 miles on a single charge*. It has won praise from reviewers for its spacious interior and boot capacity, ease of use and software which includes Lane Departure Warning, front collision warning, adaptive cruise control and traffic jam assist**.
Pricing for the MG ZS EV Excite model starts at £28,495 before the Government’s plug-in car grant (PICG), however, MG is offering to match the Government’s plug-in car grant (PICG) for the first 3,000 customers, bringing the price down to just £21,995. The first 1,000 ZS customers are also set to benefit from the installation of a free homecharger***, which has been included within the cost of the car. Deliveries to the UK commenced last week.
Daniel Gregorious, Head of Sales and Marketing at MG Motor UK, said: “We’re pleased to confirm our partnership with Pod Point as we commence deliveries of the ZS EV to the UK. We were impressed with the quality of Pod Point’s smart homechargers and the company’s dedication to excellent customer service.”
Erik Fairbairn, Pod Point CEO and Founder, said: “The launch of the ZS EV has generated an enormous amount of interest from the EV community who are always excited by the launch of a new mid-range model with excellent features. We’re delighted to be working with MG Motor UK as a preferred chargepoint supplier.”
*From a single charge on the WLTP combined cycle: Combined range: 163 miles; City Range: 231 miles.
