Overview
SAS23 MY21 Core Wagon 5dr DCT 7sp FWD 1.5T The Chinese-owned British brand MG has a strong contender on its hands with the 5-star safe, well-built, well-equipped and commodious mid-size MG HS. A strong presence among class leaders including Toyota RAV4, Mazda CX-5 and Nissan X-Trail, the HS range offers base Vibe, mid-spec Excite Essence, Core, top-spec Anfield and a plug-hybrid variant that arrived in 2020. Power in non-hybrids comes from a 119kW/250Nm 1.5-litre turbo four driving the front wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Universal five-star safety tech includes high and low-speed autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian avoidance, lane departure warning/lane-keep assist and blind-spot monitoring, while sat-nav is standard from Excite onwards.
