The MGS5 Electric SUV has officially arrived on UK roads, and it’s already making waves in the electric vehicle community. With impressive range options, modern tech features, and an affordable price point, the MGS5 is positioned to become one of the most sought-after EVs in the UK rental market. In this post, we’ll explore why this electric SUV could be the next big thing in EV rentals. Especially if it makes an appearance to the EVision fleet.
What Is the MGS5 Electric SUV?
The MGS5 Electric SUV is the latest addition to MG’s all-electric line up in the UK. Designed for drivers who want more space and style without compromising on sustainability, the MGS5 offers a balance of performance, comfort and efficiency.
Three model options are available:
- SE Standard Range: Equipped with a 49 kWh battery and a WLTP range of approximately 211 miles.
- SE Long Range: Features a 64 kWh battery offering up to 298 miles of WLTP range.
- Trophy Long Range: The flagship model with additional tech and styling upgrades, also using the 64 kWh battery.
For those interested in EV rentals, the flexibility in range options makes the MGS5 Electric SUV ideal for both short city trips and longer countryside journeys.
Performance and Driving Experience
The MGS5 Electric SUV delivers impressive performance, offering a smooth and confident rear-wheel-drive experience that feels refined on both city streets and open roads. The Trophy Long Range variant stands out with a 0 to 62 mph acceleration time of just 6.3 seconds, placing it among the quicker electric SUVs in its class.
Complementing this performance is a five-link rear suspension system, which enhances stability over uneven surfaces and significantly improves ride comfort. These features make the S5 an excellent choice for drivers looking to rent an electric car that blends everyday practicality with engaging driving dynamics.
Fast and Convenient Charging
The MGS5 Electric SUV supports fast charging, with DC rapid charging capability of up to 139 kW, depending on the model. This means you can charge the battery from 10% to 80% in as little as 28 minutes, making it ideal for busy London renters or business users who need a quick turnaround.
It also features AC charging up to 7 kW, suitable for overnight home charging or slower public chargers. Thanks to its compatibility with the UK’s widespread charging network, including providers like bp pulse and Pod Point, charging on the go is easier than ever.
Why Renting the MGS5 Electric SUV Makes Perfect Sense
The MGS5 Electric SUV offers a host of benefits that make it an ideal choice for UK rental customers, whether you’re planning a weekend trip, need a temporary replacement vehicle, or want to experience electric driving before buying.
Impressive Range for Peace of Mind
With a real-world range of up to 298 miles, the MGS5 allows you to travel long distances without constant charging stops. This is especially valuable for renters looking for flexibility and convenience on longer journeys.
Spacious and Comfortable Interior
Designed with practicality in mind, the MGS5 easily seats five adults and offers generous boot space for luggage or shopping. It’s the perfect rental for families, group travel, or even business use where comfort and space are key.
Tech-Loaded Driving Experience
Renters will enjoy a modern, connected drive thanks to the MGS5’s 12.8-inch HD touchscreen infotainment system, smartphone integration, adaptive cruise control, and advanced driver assistance features. These intuitive systems make for a stress-free and enjoyable driving experience.
Smooth and Refined Ride
The rear-wheel-drive layout and five-link rear suspension provide excellent stability and comfort, especially over uneven road surfaces. Whether you’re navigating London streets or cruising down the motorway, the MGS5 delivers a composed and relaxing drive.
Eco-Friendly and Cost-Effective
Renting an electric vehicle such as the MGS5 means you can drive through low and ultra-low emission zones without facing daily charges. This makes it not only a greener choice, but also a more economical one, particularly for city travel.
In short, the MGS5 Electric SUV combines the practicality renters need with the features and performance they’ll love. It’s a smart, sustainable choice for anyone looking to hire a reliable and stylish electric vehicle in the UK.
