MG Takes Covers Off New MGS5 EV

MG has taken the covers off the all-new MGS5 EV, which will be available in the UK from April.

The SUV will be priced from £28,495 on the road, with three different variants being available; SE Standard Range, SE Long Range and the top-spec Trophy Long Range.

As with other models in the MG range, the MGS5 EV will come with a seven-year/80,000 mile warranty as standard.

“MGS5 EV is an advanced, enjoyable and refined EV,” David Allison, Head of Product and Planning for MG Motor UK, said.

“MG’s advanced and dedicated EV platform has been further enhanced to create a truly spacious, practical and elegant cabin experience for this all-new MG SUV. Meanwhile, the technology offering surges ahead with the introduction of iSmart and MG Pilot Custom, an attractive dual screen layout, five drive modes, Five-Link rear suspension and a bespoke EV braking system created in partnership with Continental.

“The rear wheel drive MGS5 EV features highly responsive and engaging driving characteristics, seamlessly combining sportiness with excellent range as well as rapid charging and a choice of two batteries. It is our most compelling and complete EV so far, performing strongly in every arena.”

The MGS5 EV is based on the same platform as the award-winning MG4 and will be available with a choice of two battery options.

A 49kWh battery is offered in the SE Standard Range and 64kWh for both the SE Long Range and the Trophy Long Range. That provides a range of up to 298 miles on the SE Long Range, with fast charging from 10 to 80 percent available on both battery options in under half an hour.

Rolling resistance has been improved compared to previous MG models to improve efficiency, with a combination of an Integrated Braking System and Kinetic Energy Recovery System helping to recover energy during deceleration.

Alongside a number of internal storage spaces, the MGS5 EV offers 453 litres of boot space, which increases to 1,441 litres when the rear seats are dropped with features including a 12.8” HD touchscreen, HD digital drivers display, Apple Carplay and Android Auto, keyless entry and sat nav as standard.

All models also come with MG Pilot, which offers the likes of adaptive cruise control, speed limit assist and forward and rear collision warning.

Six colour options are offered, including a new Piccadilly Blue.
