MGS6 EV

The big brother of the MGS5 EV, the MGS6 EV, is here. This 36,995-pound EV crossover managed to arrive ahead of its Japanese rivals, the Toyota bZ4X and the Subaru Solterra, which are yet to unleash their longer equivalents.

One look at the first-ever MGS6 EV and you'll know that this is basically the longer version of the MGS5 EV, meaning it's easy to confuse them, but the wheelbase makes it easy to tell them apart.

Step inside the MGS6, which boasts a 12.8-inch HD touchscreen and a 10.25-inch display behind the steering wheel. The Trophy variant also includes a wireless charging port. This vehicle can comfortably seat up to five people, and when the passenger seats are folded down, it offers a maximum boot space of 1,910 liters—plenty of room to accommodate your everyday needs.

Running on the same MSP as the MGS5, the MGS6 features an ultra-thin 77kWh battery pack with up to 329 miles of WLTP combined driving range courtesy of its Integrated Braking System and F1-derived Kinetic Energy Recovery System. The 266KW all-wheel-drive Dual Motor variant sprints from 0-62mph in just 5.1 seconds, and it features five driving modes - Normal, Sport, Eco, Snow, or Custom.

Whether it's rear-wheel drive (RWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD), the MGS6 EV delivers an average driving experience. However, it excels in providing a comfortable ride on normal roads and demonstrates a strong sense of practicality. Speaking of practicality, the MGS6 is equipped with MG Pilot, which includes a wide range of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), such as Blind Spot Detection and Rear Cross Traffic Alert. The Trophy variant also features a 360° HD Surround View Camera, utilizing four wide-angle cameras to give a complete view of the surroundings.

Many people refer to it as "big brother," but the truth is that the MGS6 is the most capable all-electric SUV that MG has ever produced. While it may not be perfect, it brings a practical approach that makes the MGS6 a compelling option for anyone looking to buy an affordable electric crossover. That is the bottom line.

Available Colors: Arctic White, Piccadilly Blue, Black Pearl, Camden Grey, Cosmic Silver, Stratford Gold, and Dynamic Red.
