MG ZS Hybrid+ first look: is this the family SUV bargain to beat?
The MG ZS Hybrid+ is difficult to ignore because it launched at £21,995 with 196PS, 55.4mpg official economy and enough family space to replace a conventional petrol crossover. It is not the most polished hybrid SUV, but the value equation is unusually strong.
MG HS Plug-in Hybrid first look: is 75 electric miles enough to make it the smart family SUV?
The second-generation MG HS PHEV is one of the easiest plug-in hybrids to justify because its 75-mile official electric range is long enough to cover many daily routines without petrol, while the engine remains available for longer trips. It only makes sense, however, if you will actually plug it in.
MG3 Hybrid+ first look: is this the best-value hybrid supermini?
The MG3 Hybrid+ made a compelling case at launch because it combined an £18,495 starting price with 64mpg official economy and performance that was unusually lively for a small hybrid. I would put it near the top of a value-focused shortlist, provided the cabin and assistance systems suit you in daily use.
MG S9 Review
The MG S9 is the automotive equivalent of a 'buy one get one free' deal at a posh supermarket. It offers the space and tech of a £60,000 SUV for nearly half the price, and that 62-mile EV range is a masterstroke for company car drivers.
MG S5 Review: The ZS EV's Grown-Up Successor
I drove the MG MGS5 EV Trophy Long Range before checking the price and came away genuinely impressed. Here’s why this understated electric SUV deserves more attention.
MG Cyberster Review: More Electric Grand Tourer Than Modern MGB
The MG Cyberster is no longer the new attraction in the showroom, but its dramatic looks, scissor doors and startling performance still make it one of the most distinctive electric cars on sale.
MG IM5 75 Performance Review: Porsche Taycan Presence at Tesla Model 3 Money
The MG IM5 100 Performance shows just how far MG has come. It combines Porsche Taycan-inspired styling, huge performance, a premium-feeling interior and genuinely impressive technology at a price closer to a Tesla Model 3. It is not the most efficient EV and still relies heavily on touchscreens, but it feels comfortable, capable and far more polished than MGs of the past. For under £50,000, it is an exciting and convincing performance EV.
