00:47the MG3 Light Vehicle, and the Compact SUV ZS, which is also available in the electrified form.

00:58underneath the strangely titled Marvel R. The MG5 is powered by a single electric
01:04motor with 135kW of power and 280Nm of torque. The range is about 400km, although MG does not
01:13specify the battery capacity or maximum DC fast charge speed. It can be charged from 0% to 80%
01:19in around 30 minutes. Starting price is $22,000.
01:26X-Ping G3i X-Ping Motors has redesigned the front end
01:31of the G3i to make it appear more upmarket and aggressive. As with the previous generation,
01:37a permanent magnet synchronous motor with 145kW of power and 300Nm of torque is standard.
01:44This motor powers the front wheels and has the same 0-100kmh acceleration time and a maximum
01:51speed of 8.6 seconds and 170kmh. The electric SUV has a high-tech look thanks to split headlights
02:00and a segmented broad light band. The new front lighting structure is an X-shape, similar to the
02:06X-Ping P7. This style is known as the X-Robot Face Family by the business. Unlike the X-Ping G3,
02:15the X-Ping G3i has flush door handles on the sides for a luxurious appearance.
