The Rover 25 and MG ZR were compact hatchbacks produced by the Rover Group and later MG Rover Group from 2000 to 2005. They were essentially the same car, with the MG ZR slightly sportier in terms of styling and performance. The Rover 25 replaced the Rover 200 series, while the MG ZR was a spiritual successor to the MG Metro. Both vehicles were built on the "T-Series" platform, a modified version of the Honda Civic platform, and were known for their excellent handling, comfortable interior, and fuel-efficient engines. The Rover 25 was offered with a variety of gasoline and diesel engines, ranging from a 1.1-liter four-cylinder to a 1.8-liter K-series engine. The MG ZR, however, focused on sporty performance and came equipped with more powerful engines, such as the 1.4-liter and 1.8-liter K-Series engines. Both cars offered a choice of manual or automatic transmissions, with the MG ZR offering a sportier gearbox option. While the Rover 25 aimed for practicality and affordability, the MG ZR aimed to provide a more engaging driving experience, with its sporty styling and handling. Both vehicles found success in the compact hatchback market, with the Rover 25 becoming popular for its versatility and affordability, and the MG ZR gaining a reputation for its spirited performance. Despite their positive reception, the Rover 25 and MG ZR ultimately faced the same fate as the rest of the Rover Group, ceasing production in 2005 due to the company's financial struggles.
