Here in Thailand we only got the 1.5 NA cvt. Mine is over 2 years old with 73k kilometers and got a stage 1 tune because of the lack of power, the standard engine does makes 114 ps but on the dyno it's making only 79 ps at the wheel duo to drivetrain loss, right now with the tune it has 107 wheel ps (142 ps engine). I use it every day in heavy traffic and to be honest it's not really economical compared to it's rivals ,but its still a nice little car with no major problems🙂
Hi! I'm from Malaysia. We finally be getting mg cars to be launched in malaysia, finally to launch mg5 next month. I really like mg car. I always go to Thailand and see many mg car on the road. Because my relatives and cousins from Thailand. And I'm really planning to get this mg5. Our spec is same as yours. 1.5 na 8speed icvt. I just wanna use this car as daily driven. In town. Back and forth. My questions are. How's the reliability of this car? What are the common issues people facing. And most importantly the NVH level. I understand the price range and cannot aspect it to be super quiet, but just ok. Hope to hear from you. Thanks
@@KingKeladi if you mainly using it in the city it drinks quite a lot of fuel, in start stop traffic you'll be looking around 7-8 km/l and for highway driving you'll get 16-18 km/l when driving under 90 km/h but when driving over 110 you'll be looking at 11-13 km/l The common issue you get is changing spark plugs very often ,the battery last only 2 year at most, the infotainment screen likes to freeze, under the brake peddle is a switch which like to brake and when broken you cant start the car ,some parts are expensive close to bmw prices but mostly when something brakes the warranty will cover nearly everything ,and the car speakers are terrible and gets worse when listening to high pitch music The good thing are that the car chassis is very strong and safe( i got rear ended by a yaris last year,the yaris front was destroyed meanwhile the mg only has a dent in the rear hatch and only scratches the rear bumper) suspension is really soft but can be trusted when driving high speed and handles very good (better than most normal Japanese cars) Thats all i had and can say about my mg5 so i hope this info helped you decide a bit more, please go test drive the car to make sure you really like it or not Good luck with your purchase 🙂
As a 45 yo woman, I just want something affordable to get me around Sydney. Mainly to and from work. I have a nearly 20 yo Toyota corolla, but a new one in 10k more and it's just to put of budget. I just hope the 7 year warranty covers what needs to be replaced when faulty.
I had one of these as a hire car for a week in Cairns, and yes your conclusions were the same as mine. It’s just a car, and a cheap one at that. There’s nothing enjoyable about it, other than it gets you from a to b. I found the touch screen for the heater/aircon hard to use, and the MG mascot with the racing helmet was pretty funny considering how slow the car is 😂 The MG badge seems really out of place, considering that MG back in the 60s was a more premium brand than Morris or Austin.
So if they didn't receive any ancap safety rating which in Australia every comes with some sort of rating how did they allow this car in the country and sell it as well??
Several BMW models have no ANCAP rating, and the Mazda CX-3 doesn't have one. Yup that's right, the CX-3. ANCAP is not the law, it's just an advisory body.
@@Bribie12 ANCAP is a political stunt used to fleece car manufacturers of money to get an advertising stamp of approval. They copy and paste most vehicle ratings from Euro-NCAP, and the cars they choose to review here are paid for with taxpayer dollars. Lest a manufacturer pays them to review a car. they're a farce. A 3 Star car in 2024 is a 5 Star car from 2020. The Corolla still holds a 5 Star rating even though the last review was in 2017. ANCAP can easily be ignored in every aspect.
Good for around town and on a budget. I just wonder how often you change timing belts and brakes... I saw another long term review on the Small MG SUV and they had to change brake pads and the discs at 20,000kms!
If I could spec a car to my liking. Think 1960's. Suspension and brake upgrade. That will do. Today's cars have everything you don't want, or need. All look the same. Designed by the same drag coefficient computer. Weigh a ton because of all the extra crap. And have taken away any driver input or experience. We are getting closer to autonomous vehicles. Only one more stage to fully autonomous. What is the point. Take the bus. Driving used to be more than just transport. It was an integrated experience between man and machine. It evolved as you learnt the quirks and limits. Now the cars tell you what to do, and take over. They tell you what to do. Won't let you do what you want. Ridiculous. Add to this the draconian road rules and legislation. Implemented by over zealous robots in uniform. In a bid to generate enough funding to cover their existence. Driving is no longer a pleasurable experience. Whatever you drive.
Wow. Pretty true...although if you search for a manual (and can find one) you might find some pleasure. Even the new Mazda3 and Golf now have no manuals in any spec. Manuals will very soon become something quant; like a pianola.
For the majority of people, driving is absolutely just transport and not for enjoyment. Australia has extremely car-focused urban design, it’s a necessity for most people to drive.
A person who prefers silence and avoids being in a crowded place would never take public transport if he has his own vehicle. So even if that person has his own autonomous vehicle, he would still take that instead of public transport. Plus, you have to spend money everytime you take public transport, but not everyone wants to do that. And if you think that you have to do whatever your car tells you to do, then you are badly mistaken. It just helps you by giving warnings and suggestions, but you can still do whatever you want. Your car cannot stop you from doing anything. And even today, only a handful of cars are fully autonomous, and they are very expensive. Most of the cars today are still driver dependent, just with extra features.
I'd like to get another E36 M3 3.2L manual but prices are starting to rise a bit. Could find a high-km E90 M3 before they go up as well. A cool E12 5 Series or a clean E30 would go down nice too... Tough choice!
Exactly the same as my Nissan X-Trail, which is a roomy five seat, medium size SUV with great cargo capacity and a nice 2.5litre engine. I could almost fit your MG3 in the back, though I'd have to fold the rear seats down ... ;-)
Thank you again Brett. Really liked your review. I had wondered what it was like as I Iove my sedans. While I appreciate knowing that in your view the i30 is the best all round sedan (and there aren't many to choose from any more), unless it is in N form, I just can't handle the styling. Way way way too busy for my preference. Looking forward to the next one.
Hi, yes we get what we pay for.Resale will be poor, but its still gets people around.Who wants to pay a stack of bank interest on a better car?its an option for people not rolling in money
For the price and value for money is definitely worth considering! But I would questioned their claim on fuel usage and actually get an accurate reading. I think it does drink allot more than they claim and MG should be truthful or they could tarnish their reputation like some other car manufacturer for lying. Great review mate as always and thank you for being honest and not too judgemental with this car!
I do most of my kms on motorways (retired and visit lots of rellies). I keep a good record of fuel purchases and Kms and the claimed fuel consumption is spot on.
people those who laugh at this car really make me want to laugh at them. do ur guys know how much it is in China. 8000 thousand American dollars can drive it away. what could you expect to this car. this car has 6 airbags. equip with same even more safe functions as 2019 Mitsubishi asx. why ur guys rely Mitsubishi this shit brand more than mG5? car made in China s quality is day and night difference compare with10yrs ago.
Airbags are good but don't necessarily make it safe. Structural integrity? Not tested...Why not? Chinese manufacturers are very good at producing items that look good, and are superficially capable, but which are not durable or have substantial deficiencies hidden underneath the pretty exterior.

Perhaps, therefore, a bit of a poor bias review.comments like the vibe " could be more refined than the essence" really mate - you havnt driven the DCT essence but make this comment ??? I dont think your review holds any merit if you havnt realistically driven both to compare a well known dct vs cvt and the benifits of the dct.
Thanks for your comment. The review is for this variant. I don't think the refinement, performance, or quality is up to the segment standards, in my opinion. I have driven all rivals extensively and this is the conclusion that I draw. That's ok if you don't like/agree with my opinion. But my opinion still stands.
This MG5 is $24990 Drive Away no more to pay. An i30 is $29.990 (EOF Special) PLUS ON ROAD, OR, $32,995 Drive Away. Corolla is also $10,000 more expensive, KIA Cerato is $28.790 plus onroad equals $31,995 almost $10,000 more.

I would suggest saving a little bit more money and getting one of the far-superior alternatives. It might only be $24,990, but so what? The item you're left with isn't very good. You might as well compare it to a used car, in my opinion.
bruh! if ur talking about power and transmission try and review the turbo variant. If not then stop diz sht reviews. I would rather save more for an upgrades than what you call superior but not in the same category. Dudette ffs if you compare sht you need to consider the closest price, engine displacement tranny stock tires and etc....for example an MG5 Turbo vs Honda Civic Rs Turbo. Same engine but way out of price and difft. tranny.
Interestingly, MG never claimed their cars are now made in China. Dealers mislead people to think they are British cars. Very ridiculous right? Everyone trying to promote MG5 should feel sorry for it's ANCAP zero star. If someone really wants a sedan why not buying a used Camry or Mazda2/3? Even a brand new Mazda2 Sedan is just ~10% more expensive than this garbage.
I'm confounded how we're able to accept such a compromise which is detrimental to more expensive but superior quality cars!? I've hired this car while in Australia but your analogy about just a car is right on the button but this will drag down legitimate good car manufacturers which I believe is a travesty. Acoustically the interior is affected by the hard plastics. I feel that is a compounding issue along with other cost cutting factors that this car is compromised by all adding to a tinny drive. However I did manage better mileage but still nothing to write home about.
Really very average, definitely a case of getting what you pay for and what seems cheap up front could easily cost more in the long run because the resale on that will be dreadful and I certainly wouldn't want to own one out of warranty. And that's before you consider that you're buying a car that was literally built by the Chinese Government which is pretty irresponsible. Would definitely get an i30 or Cerato over that.
