About the MG ZS EV
The MG ZS EV made a practical electric family SUV affordable for a huge number of buyers, and the latest version adds a bigger battery and range. Its roomy, flat interior hides a tracking phone easily.
Where to mount a tracking phone in the ZS EV
- Under-floor boot tray - deep and hidden.
- Under the rear bench - flat and dry.
- Centre console - near USB power.
- Power - USB or 12 V.
- Signal - glass areas pass GPS; avoid metal frames.
Private by design - no manufacturer cloud, no foreign servers
Modern cars are permanently connected: the maker's own app knows where your car is and routes that data through its cloud. Our approach is the opposite. Tracking runs entirely on a phone you own, and your location history lives in your own SpySat account. We do not pass it to the car maker and we do not send it to any foreign data centre.
