The new MG ZS quite disturbed the Honda HR-V SUV, which has long been marketed in Indonesia. The price of the MG ZS, which is priced at IDR 255, is even more affordable than the HR-V which is higher at IDR 42 million. But in terms of fuel consumption, this difference is also clear.
MG ZS fuel consumption
The MG ZS 2020 engine uses a Naturally Aspirated 4-cylinder 15S4C 1.5L with DOHC and VTi-Tech technology. MG Motors' new SUV is capable of delivering up to 114 PS at 6,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 150 Nm at 4,500 rpm.
Power is channeled to the front wheels using a 4-speed automatic transmission with a manual model. Although the acceleration offered is quite good, this is coupled with the engine efficiency which is quite impressive on the way.
It's just that the 4-speed transmission is not very good with a little gearshift. Whereas use in cities with stop-and-go conditions and unstable trips gives a record of 10 km / L. Not bad for a 1.5L engine class car.
When taken to drive at a more stable speed, for example when taken on roads outside the city. Based on tests conducted by the media, it has succeeded in bringing MG ZS fuel consumption to 18 km / hour.
Fuel consumption for Honda HR-V
Meanwhile, the Honda HR-V is quite impressive even without turbo power. Using a 1.5L 4-cylinder in line 16 valve already uses Honda's distinctive DBW technology which is known to be able to provide more efficient fuel consumption.
Its power is also greater than the MG ZS with a maximum achievement of 120 PS at 6,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 145 Nm at 4,600 rpm, slightly lower than the maximum torque of the MG ZS.
Channeled through a choice of CVT transmission and 6-speed manual transmission with DBW technology, Honda HR-V's fuel consumption feels more efficient due to more gear shifts. When taken on a trip in the city, the consumption is recorded at 12-13 km / hour.
Moreover, if the HR-V is driven at a constant and more stable speed, it can save more fuel consumption. In tests conducted by the media, the out-of-town fuel consumption provided by the Honda HR-V is able to reach 20-21 km / hour.

Conclusion
MG ZS is quite attractive by presenting a more affordable price and power that is not inferior to the Honda HR-V. But for fuel consumption, the Honda HR-V remains superior by using Earth Dream Technology which is more efficient than Honda.
