Welcome to the all new MG ZS Vs Mazda CX-3 comparison for 2019. We’ve written quite a few comparisons with the MG ZS and it has some compelling features that make it worth considering it ahead of it’s competitors. However it is not perfect and there are also reasons why you shouldn’t just like any other. However we know exactly where it fits in the class but just to be sure are comparing it to the most popular int he class at the moment the Mazda CX-3.<\/p>\n

MG ZS Vs Mazda CX-3 exterior comparison: The CX-3 looks great regardless of model grade and has a quality that gives it a upmarket look. The CX-3 design is also a little different in design than it’s competition is easy to recognise as a Mazda. The MG ZS is arguably the opposite of the CX-3 in terms of looks. The MG ZS design is a combination of other manufacturer’s themes including the larger Mazda CX-5.<\/p>\n

MG ZS Vs Mazda CX-3 interior comparison: The CX-3 interior is a great looking place that looks a feels good to be in. Even the base model is decent enough. Sure the top the dashboard is hard plastic but it looks good enough to pass as soft which is the point. We assume the designers knew what they where doing as the materials blend in perfectly. The dash and interior is shared with the Mazda 2 and the MX-5 so it is familiar. The MG ZS interior is a good place to be in as well certain looks and feel more than it’s entry price tag. However MG ZS is completely conventional in design \u00a0looking like a 90’s Mitsubishi and looks old.<\/p>\n

MG ZS Vs Mazda CX-3 engines and and technology comparison: Dependent on model grade the CX-3 has all the latest safety tech and all models get auto emergency brakes. In comparison the MG ZS does not and it doesn’t get the industry standard 5 star safety rating which means the design tech is compromised e.g. missing the 7th airbag, blind spot monitor etc… all the features that are increasingly standard in new cars and SUVs in 2019. In some ways the lack of thee features encourage better driving skills but in constant slow heavy traffic in 2019 the lack of these features is annoying – just like the manual transmission.<\/p>\n

MG ZS Vs Mazda CX-3 drive comparison: N\/A<\/p>\n

The winner of the MG ZS Vs Mazda CX-3 comparison is the CX-3. It would appear then MG saved money in designers by copying other designs for the exterior and interior but at least the quality of materials has been increased. The rest of the parts or hidden mechanical item sare barely class average including the not unexpected safety score but most is forgiven due to the cheap price tag. It really does appear that it should be marketed to those wanting a used SUV from other manufacturers rather than a new model! Only time will tell if the MG brand will represent reliable cars or weather the fall apart. Can you live with a base CX-3 with an automatic vs top range MG ZS with all the cosmetic enhancements essentially skin deep? Put it another way when ever we see a MG ZS on the road we immediately consider whether the buyer got ripped off.<\/p>\n
