Very inviting - no wonder people like classic cars! And WITHOUT a spare wheel, how are you going to complete your long journey to your holiday destination? This car DOES have room for a spare. Get your finger out, M.G.! The old M.G. company had a full sized spare wheel under the floor of the M.G.B.G.T., easily accessible through the hatchback. The R.A.C. can't change a spare wheel (if you can't do it yourselves), if there ISN'T a spare! What are you meant to do? Order a spare wheel from the dealer, and keep it in your garage for the R.A.C. to fetch, and bring it to you, while you are stuck somewhere half through France, on the way to your holiday destination,? Modern cars aren't worth having, so buy a MGBGT hatchback anyway!

I know it’s a Chinese MG but… it’s low priced, it doesn’t actually look that bad and lastly it’s not a bloody SUV, very much Passat style front.

I know of people who have an SUV and then regretted buying one… mostly because of the inefficient use of space and small boot (with the seats up at least) . Estate cars are so much more practical, hence why I have one.

Really good cars. Not sure why anyone would buy a Nissan, Renault or Kia etc over an MG to be honest. You get even more car for your money with MG and they are just as good if not better.

Good review and I enjoy spotting my home county's locations as you drive! A lot of digs at the fact that it's Chinese, presumably from people who don't have an iPhone, computer with chinese chips inside, Tesla Model 3 etc, all made in China. This car has a VW Golf GTI steering wheel (SAIC who make this car also build VW's under contract for the chinese market). Only the new Long Range version has MG Pilot, which includes Adaptive Cruise Control, and it uses Bosch technology, just like Audi.

I test drove one before ordering one this weekend - shocked by the pace sportmode gives you.

Excellent review! Thanks. I did a small double take when I saw the MG5 EV title, but please give us more EV reviews. Totally agree with your SUV comments. There's no need for them and they cause more pedestrian injury than estates.

Glad to see how far MG have come in 5 years. This car looks alot better in black than a sliver one I've seen. If I had one, would debadge the MG5 EV badges as they look a bit naff and also not sure what that plastic bar under the number plate is either, looks odd. (5:12)

Good effort, so nearly 9/10! Will definitely get sales at the value end of the electric market… I could go for one of these, if it wasn’t for the Kia e-Niro which is much better for perhaps another £8-9k. As things stand, if I take the electric plunge next year I’d opt for the Kia.

I have to say I think this is a very good car, good value for an EV and an estate! Very objective review, thank you.

Given that it's cheaper than a Corsa-e, MG are really pushing the affordable EV thing, and I think it's going to end up working out well for them.

Seems fair value, although some testers have commented on it being 10+ years behind current ride/handling standards. The full length body crease reminds me of an old 60's Vauxhall Viva. The side hinged charge socket is a huge improvement over the stupidly designed top hinged one on the ZS EV..... Should appeal to many though.....

A friend of mine has just changed his diesel GLC for a MG HS PHEV mainly as he can drive mainly on full electric so save even more money. When he told me about this I assumed once he test drove the MG he would feel it would be too much of a step down especially in refinement. However after driving it he ordered one straight away he concedes it’s not as good to look at but refinement fit and finish cannot be beaten,all with a 7 year warranty.

I have been racking my brains trying to choose my next motability car and I think iv now found it. Thanks Matt 🙂👍

Totally agree with your points about SUVs. I don’t understand the appeal at all, estate car every time! You forgot to show the rear seats folded though, I believe they don’t fold flat?

There is an MG dealer in Sandycroft where I work. There’s a white one of these in the showroom window and I’ve never seen one before, this is the second one I’ve ever seen lol. Really handsome cars, and I do love a wagon and don’t like SUVs. It looks like a cross between an older Passat and a Mazda. The only real despairing thing is the unremitting black interior - typical of new cars. It’s very tedious. Great review Matt!

If the tailgate doesn’t reach down to floor level then can it really be an estate car? It’s a hatchback styled to look like an estate car.

Depends on the SUV and your definition of practicality. I changed from a decent sized Estate to an SUV, and stuck with SUV when I changed car again as the practicality ‘for me’ is better, and I prefer the ride height and ease of entry/exit. Some SUV’s do have awkward boots, wether that be overall size being smaller than it should be or awkward loading but not all are, just like not all Estate cars have a perfect boot. Just like Estate cars vary in size, so do SUV’s too. My current car, Peugeot 3008 has a 590L boot when floor is in low position which is a bit bigger than the MG5 Estate in this video. I personally wouldn’t go back to an estate but that’s because the SUV is practical for my needs, having a knackered back.

Quite nice, like others already noted I see some resemblance with VW-estates from a few years ago, but also some mégane estate in its roofline ... Looks like electric driving is finally getting affordable for many people and judging by the number of ZS-MG's I see, MG plays no small part in that process. This MG5 does at least the most important things right, it seems.

I'm seriously considering one, After finding my good old MK2 Galaxy is gone

Very cheap first quote from AutoTrader today "BRAND NEW - IN STOCK MG MG5 52.5kWh Excite Auto 5dr RRP £27,595 Price £20,295 plus £199 admin fee" So £20,494 on the road.

The Porsche Taycan Cross Tourismo is an estate as well, no? Even if Porsche are somewhat allergic to that term.

As probably mentioned elsewhere Porsche now offer the Taycan in estate form with the rather lovely cross turismo, a lot more expensive and not very practical but then neither is this MG. I feel it's very generous to call the MG an estate with that massive lip and fairly small load capacity, lots of space is one reason I buy an estate but the wide opening flat boot is the other one so it can easily take large loads which I can't see being possible with that lip in the way given how many marks I have on the roof fabric of my current car squeezing stuff in and it has a huge opening.

I'll definitely be interested in a few years when my daily Auris bites the dust. I'll be keeping an eye out for how well they stand up and how long the battery will last. I like the sound of very comfortable seats and super smooth suspension.

Technically, I guess the battery has to last as long as the original warranty ( 7 years), but when it does start to lose efficiency, you can at least have the pack refurbished rather than totally replaced. A refurb usually costs much less than a replacement. There is a KZread video of a UK owned 10 year old Leaf getting a battery refurb. The work took 4 hours, and cost the owner £600.... So comparable cost-wise with fitting a new clutch or similar.

Good video, Matt 👍

It might be an estate but it's got an SUV's ride height! It's some plastic cladding around the bumpers and arches away from being called an all-road! Edit: Ha, I paused the video to make the above remark right before you mentioned it in the video. It needs sorting out as there are not insignificant aerodynamic advantages of a lower ride height. Unfortunately I suspect the ride height will be an inherent feature of the platform and might not be solvable without trashing the ride quality. It doesn't look like there is a front air dam or spats around the wheels either, maybe the engineers aren't being allowed to pay attention to these important details...

They do look a great family ev for the money. I don't know if you tried folding the seats though, in other reviews it looks like you get a very sloping load bay, so not a very good estate. The ZS does give a flat floor, so paradoxically the SUV is better for long loads than the estate!

Chinese cars are coming ahead in leaps and bounds. I'm sure that within a few years, they will be very well built, reliable, great to drive, and be durable and as cheap to run as anything from any other part of the world. The one huge issue, however, is that by shelling out your hard earned for a Chinese car, you are in fact helping to fund the Chinese Communist party, who have a horrific human rights record, and they also have made it very well known that they desire to be the most powerful government on Earth, which considering how they treat their own citizens, is a truly terrifying thought.
