Since 2019 and the launch of its ZS EV electric SUV, the MG brand has made a successful return to our roads.

In two years, two other SUV models have joined the range: the electric Marvel R and the plug-in hybrid EHS.

MG continues to grow in Europe thanks to a 100% electrified range (electric or hybrid), which continues to grow.

The start of 2022 thus sees the arrival of a new model: the MG 5, the first 100% electric station wagon on the market.

If this is the first time that we have seen such an engine in a station wagon, this does not upset the codes for all that: this MG 5 is a real station wagon, spacious and cut out for families.

With a length of 4.60 meters, a width of 1.82 meters, and a height of 1.54 meters, it can comfortably accommodate five people.

Its trunk has a volume of 479 liters, and up to 1367 liters once the bench seat (split into 2-3/1-3) is folded down... This is as much as for its main thermal or rechargeable hybrid competitors.

The break for long journeys

Flying under the Chinese flag, MG has accustomed us to offering excellent price/performance ratios.

This MG5 is no exception and offers from the first Comfort finish a 10.25-inch touch screen, LED headlights, a reversing camera, heated seats and MG Pilot driving aids.

The Luxury version adds leatherette upholstery, a 360 camera, 17-inch rims and electric front seats.

Two battery capacities are announced: 50.3 kWh for 320 kilometers of autonomy, and 61.1 kWh promising 400 kilometers.

This MG 5 will accept up to 11kW on public charging station or Wallbox, and up to 87kW in fast charge.

In this last configuration, it can be recharged from 0 to 80% in about forty minutes.

It will also inherit the reverse V2L charging technology, which allows you to charge an electrical device directly in the car, using a household outlet (up to 2.2 kW of power).

The MG 5 station wagon will be available from March in all MG Brand Stores concessions.

Its prices will start at €32,490 excluding bonuses.

Enough to give great ambitions to MG France, which is counting on several hundred sales of "5" this year!
