MG ZS EV Inverter Reverse Engineering Part 1

[@lukemason9500]

This would be a fantastic package with decent power rated motor. 129kw is what they are rated at.

[@gromit4x4]

Fantastic work, thank you for your continued effort.

[@idrisddraig2]

Looks sensibly simple. Hope it proves to be that in reverse engineering.

[@philip_fletcher]

Very interested in this as the units seem to fairly readily available at a reasonable price (although the one's I've seen may e earlier as the drive shaft does not go through the motor). Thank you Damien - your work (and delivery) is very much appreciated.

Great news! I've a ZS motor in the corner of the shed....

[@Good-Enuff-Garage]

thumbs up this if you believe the only way to truly test this is using a fresh new blank canvas ie acquire a new vehicle ==>

[@KingfisherAbuGarcia]

Well there's always the JCB... which is in a dire need of 129 kW.

Fantastic news Damien. I am eyeing off one of these as my donor EV so great to see you working on the reverse engineering, and also great to see how well designed it is. Am I right to assume that if I order my Zombieverter now, a future firmware update will bring integration of the MG inverter and Battery charger? Cheers and keep up the great work!

[@celeron55]

Charger probably, but if you listened to anything said in this video you should realize Zombieverter won't be able to control this inverter with its OEM logic board.

[@andrewbrooks8236]

@@celeron55 Hi Celeron - I actually did listen to the whole video, and Damien said that he was going to work on a new board for the inverter. Hence the reason for my question to him.

Hello Damien! Nice work. You have done a lot for providing cheap and reliable solutions for the EV conversions and it has really helped me alot with my budget EV plans. Could you please tell me if Zombies could also work with the Nissan e power inverters as well? I believe E power vehicles are very common nowadays and although they have the same EM57 motor setup and one can extract not just one but two motors from a single transmission. actually I cant find leaf parts here in Pakistan as leaf isn`t very common here but note and kicks e power are in a significant number and the parts are coming in too. cant find much of content on e power inverters but thought I should ask you if you ever came across any of those too. Thank you in advance.

Another drive unit for a Front Wheel Drive car? Another Volvo you say? 👀👀

I want to transplant EV stuff into my L322 Range Rover which is currently running a 3.6tdv8 . Would I be best to purchase a damaged EV and just stuff it all into the range .

[@tomaslundberg465]

That looks like a MG5 motor and inverter. At least here in Sweden the ZS EV has a different motor

[@ckafam]

Same here in Australia. The MG ZS EV here has the motor offset to the axle centerline

[@davefiddes]

Time to convert the Muskvo to a MGvo I think.

[@jolive3743]

anyone know where i can find the dimensions of this motor?

[@jeffreylebowski3216]

Fock that "three" stuff. In a perfect world we would all speak with Irish accent.
