MGS5 64 kWh range test

Uploaded 2 months ago by Bjørn Nyland

Video Summary

The car shares a platform with the MG4. It has a 64 kWh battery. The charging curve tapers off earlier than the MG4, around 40-45%, sometimes over 50%. The net capacity is measured at 64 kWh. It has decent interior space similar to a VW ID3 or ID4. It costs 350k NOK, which might be similar in specs to an Eldrock. It has Bridgestone tires and plastic hubcaps with metal rims, and aims for an aerodynamic design. The e-database reports slightly more energy consumption than the MG4, which is questioned as this car is larger. The car felt slightly more efficient than the MG4 in the 1000 km challenge. The drive quality and sound proofing are considered very good. The software is its weakest aspect, even though there is a proper trip meter. The brightness is controlled separately for each screen. Navigation is lacking in detail. It seems that the MG pilot is performing more smoothly than in other MG cars. It does not adapt to driving style. It also has phantom braking in certain curves. At low charge, performance can be sluggish.
