In terms of style, the new MG5 introduces a fresh front design, showcasing dynamic lines and a confident stance. It has a spacious interior that comfortably accommodates five passengers. With a luggage capacity of 406 litres, this model is as practical as it is stylish.
The stylish element extends to the car’s interior, which raises the bar with its Zero G five-seater comfort texture. These deluxe seats are equipped with a 20mm zero gravity padding layer, providing a soft yet supportive ride.
The innovative seat design ensures perfect support and comfort for all passengers, comparable to that of premium vehicles. The eco-friendly microfibre leather and high-resilience foam seat framework further enhance the interior’s sustainability and durability.
Providing a versatile performance is also a key focus for the new MG5. Under the bonnet, all variants are powered by a 1.5litre engine delivering 109HP. The intelligent throttle valve design optimises efficiency and extends service life. The new model features an eight-speed CVT transmission, tested rigorously over 2.35 million kilometres to ensure durability and optimum reliability.

This system includes PDC (Pull Drift Compensation) and TCS (Torque Steer Compensation), ensuring stability and control in various driving conditions. The U-beam semi-independent rear suspension enhances ride comfort by reducing stress and improving torsional efficiency.
Drivers can switch between three steering modes – Light, Standard, and Calm – offering a tailored driving experience that suits any preference.
