Overview

The MG S5 EV is the direct replacement for the popular ZS EV, and it is a substantial step forward - sharper to drive, better equipped and available with class-leading range. The SE Long Range version pairs a 64kWh battery with a 228PS rear-mounted motor for up to 298 miles of WLTP range and a 0-62mph time of just 6.3 seconds. DC charging at up to 139kW takes the battery from 10 to 80 per cent in around 28 minutes, while MG's new ultra-thin battery technology frees up cabin space. Inside, the S5 EV offers a modern five-seat cabin with a 12.8-inch touchscreen, wireless phone charging and MG Pilot safety systems as standard. Priced from £28,495, it delivers the same value-focused formula that has made MG one of the UK's best-selling EV brands, with a seven-year, 80,000-mile warranty for total peace of mind.
