MG Motor UK has announced that it’s stepping up with the all-new MGS5 EV, a vehicle that promises to redefine what we expect from electric SUVs. Taking cues from the groundbreaking MG4 EV (a car that swept awards and accolades for its quality) the MGS5 EV delivers a combination of versatility, premium features, and affordability.
Scheduled to debut in Spring UK 2025, the MGS5 EV is built on MG’s Modular Scalable Platform (MSP), the same engineering marvel underpinning the MG4 hatchback. This platform ensures a harmonious blend of dynamic on-road performance and long-range capability, whether you’re navigating tight city streets or cruising down open highways. But what truly sets it apart? It’s an SUV, meaning drivers will also enjoy enhanced practicality, space, and comfort—a win-win in the modern EV landscape.
The cabin of the MGS5 EV sounds like an avant-garde lounge rather than just a car interior. MG teases a “striking new cabin appearance” decked out with advanced features tailored specifically for this SUV. It’s not just about looking sleek; MG is clearly on a mission to elevate the driving experience with technology and ambiance, forging fresh territory in the electric SUV category.
David Allison, Head of Product and Planning for MG Motor UK, perfectly captures the vehicle’s ethos: “The MGS5 EV has all the credentials to impress, a generously equipped and spacious SUV but with the all-electric performance that MG customers enjoy so much. In terms of cabin ambience and technology this model will offer a new and greatly enhanced MG experience”.
True to its roots, MG remains committed to delivering exceptional value, despite this clear push for more premium features. The MGS5 EV underscores the automaker’s focus on making electric motoring accessible, enjoyable, and, above all, affordable. This is no surprise given the brand’s stellar recent performance: In 2024, MG Motor UK reached a record-breaking 81,536 new vehicle registrations, with EVs making up 27.2% of total sales. Factor in a robust 7-year/80,000-mile warranty and it’s easy to see why MG remains a strong contender in the electric revolution.
