Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica vs MG ZS EV

Side-by-Side Specs

Charging Speed

The Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica has a peak DC charging speed of 100 kW, which is roughly 6% faster than the MG ZS EV at 94 kW. In practice, peak speed only tells part of the story. The charging curve, battery temperature, and state of charge all affect how quickly your car actually charges.

For the 10-80% charge (the most common DC fast charging scenario), the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica finishes in about 27 minutes, which is 10 minutes quicker than the MG ZS EV at 37 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.

Range and Efficiency

The MG ZS EV has a WLTP rated range of approximately 440 km, which is roughly 40 km more than the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica at approximately 400 km. WLTP is a standardized lab test. Expect your actual range to be lower, varying with speed, weather, terrain, and driving style.

Efficiency matters more than battery size for daily driving costs. The Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica consumes 159 Wh/km, compared to 185 Wh/km for the MG ZS EV. That means the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica uses less energy per kilometer, which translates to lower charging costs and fewer charging stops on longer drives.

A more efficient car does not always mean more range. Battery size plays a role too. The MG ZS EV has approximately 68.3 kWh of useable battery , while the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica has approximately 51 kWh.

Which One Should You Choose?

If fast charging speed is your priority, the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica wins on both peak power (up to 100 kW) and time at the plug (approximately 27 minutes from 10-80%). For long road trips with multiple charging stops, that faster turnaround makes a real difference.

For AC charging (home wallboxes, workplace chargers, and public street chargers), the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica supports up to 11 kW, compared to 7.4 kW for the MG ZS EV. In Europe, many public chargers are 22 kW AC, so this difference can mean charging roughly twice as fast at those locations.

If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica is the more efficient choice at 159 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.

For maximum range between charges, the MG ZS EV has a WLTP rated range of approximately 440 km, which is roughly 40 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.
