MG S5 EV

For the price point, this car delivers exceptional performance and comfort level that can rival its competitors which are more costly. The seats are plush and extremely comfortable, even for long drives up north. The interior styling is classy and feels expensive. And it’S very very quiet both on the inside and outside. The handling of this car is what makes this car a stand out. Very easy to manoeuvre and the turning angle is great especially for a car of this size. And the pick-up and acceleration of this car makes other (more expensive) electric SUVs pale in comparison.... Read More

Just got my MG S5 EV Luxury 2 weeks ago and driving it everyday since (approx 800km now). It is such a nice drive. A few things if I do have to nitpick • ?wireless charging is really slow, feels like one of those third party Qi wireless charger with suede places on top. Using wired charging is much faster • ?mg pilot custom setting needs to be selected each time you start the car - only applies to drive setting and doesn't apply to pilot car seat (ie pilot car seat doesn't have memory function) • ?front passenger car seat shifting is manual and not electric Despite the above, it is a really nice drive and at that price point getting a RWD, it's been a joy driving it. The sunroof and all makes it especially mesmerising for my toddler in tow. Apple CarPlay works perfectly as well. Before deciding on this, I was considering the BYD ATTO3, and it felt too plasticky for my liking. The S5 felt like a proper car on battery. It's not much of a "tech" car per se if you were to compare it to the likes of BYD or Tesla, but it gets you to your destination, safely. You should check out the crash test for the s5 on YouTube, pretty solid. Personally, I'm someone who just wants to get my family and myself from A to B safely with no need for speed. If you are of a similar profile, you won't regret the purchase :) best of luck mate!... Read More
