I’m a happy owner of one for nearly 2 years now. For the price, the interior quality and ride can’t be matched imho. No issues so far after 10000 miles and even manage 39mpg real world on long runs. Agree with everything you’ve said on the review but I can live with its poor points just because it is such good value.

I definitely bought mine with my head, and glad I did....it does everything I want, and in comfort!
My only bugbear is the cruise control stalk, which is blindly stuck under the steering wheel, so have had to memorise how to use, set and resume....otherwise, no regrets and love it!!

I am a happy owner of the MG HS Exclusive. The Quality, Convenience, Practicality, Fuel Economy, Price, Performance and Comfort is second to none. It's not a luxury car like the Mercedez, Audi, Volkswagen and BMW. Honest opinion, If you're a bachelor this car is not for you but If you are a family man like me, it feels like home.

Fantastic no nonsense review, no smart Alec put downs, is quite refreshing..

[DJFerg]

Really good straight forward review, I personally really like the HS, I currently own a 22 plate MG ZS, and I'm really pleased with that as well.
MG really have raised the bar with "affordable" motoring in that price point.

[Beetroote]

I'm a happy MG HS full option owner since Nov 2021 in Dubai.
Only thing I hate is the missing physical ac controls. Other than that, Car is well built in and out with high quality materials everywhere.

Great to see a no nonsense road test. Yes, not the most exciting car in the world but probably the best value. There are only 2 specifications in the UK, Excite and Exclusive. The Exclusive you tested does have real leather interior including the door cards, with alcantara accents on front seats as seen in your video. The Excite model has faux leather interior. We have a new 22 year model which now has a full digital instrument cluster. SAIC, the Chinese manufacturer who owns the MG brand produces about 9 million cars a year! They build, under licence, all the Audi, Volkswagen, Skoda, Chevrolet, Cadillac and Buick models for the Asian and Australian markets and have learnt how to build good cars very quickly.

Got this as a rental from enterprise as they didn’t have a qashqai, now I’m here. Drove it 1000 miles to Scotland and back was nice drive with all 4 of us being 6ft plus.. considering purchasing it

Very nice honest review. We have been searching for a good honest review of this car for a while as we are thinking of buying the 2.0L Trophy edition in Saudi.
Having been to many showrooms here, you clearly get a lot more for your money than other car brands.
The comments under this video have also been a great help, particularly those who already own the car. Thanks very much 👍👍👍

We have a 2 litre AWD in Australia and we love it. As for the A/C controls many cars are using the touchscreen (including Tesla) and I have found it to be better than all of the vehicles that I drive (work etc) Having the screen /buttons so high on the dash means I don't have to look down and usually you only need to change the temperature or fan speed. Want to change from face to feet has you pushing 1 button instead of scrolling or twisting a dial. The 2 litre has 40 percent more power and torque and it easts hills and corners. Much better than the 1.5 litre that you drove.

I got my HS this year and I couldnt be happier with it

[sumosprojects]

G’day mate, I’ve got one as a rental & getting nearly 800km a tank. People have become snobs & want everything nowadays.
Good review 👍

[nunyabizniz]

Took one on a test drive today and loved it so much I ordered one lol 😂

[atcha]

Thank you for a great review. I ended up going for the MG ZS Auto Exclusive.

[DeadSkullWolf]

I had the manual one of these a few months ago as a courtesy car after someone drove into the back of my Audi. I have to say i absolutely loved it and will definitely be considering buying one once the price in the second hand market starts to drop a bit more

[noellorbes]

I love long drives and driving MG RX5 2021. I was surprised with its reliability, very comfortable to drive, suspensions are very nice, the breaks are good, speed is fine considering its 1.5 engine, maneuverability is good as well and the price is affordable with its panoramic features. Been driving this car for 2 years and I had no problems with the maintenance. My only concern was that, my car’s battery has gone busted in 8 months and the car dealership failed to replace the battery for free. So i bought a different battery.

[daveinthailand]

Higher spec version here in Thailand only 700, 000 baht (£16, 200)
Now fitted with new CVT 8 speed AUTO gearbox
Great car just got one fitted with lots of extras electronic boot opener and external trims
Crazy price could not get a nissan juke for that in UK. BRILLIANT

[Fairyfink]

Very fair review which 11:03 summed up the pros and cons well. Having driven a MG HS as a hire car (for comparison, my car is a Mazda CX-30 satnav auto), my view is they've got lots of good-looking features but none of them work particularly well. The ropey transmission and poorly designed infotainment system are definite problems. If I had 22-25 K to spend on a car, I'd be looking at what I could get for that money on the second hand market.

[FrankGourlay]

Fantastic car for the money. I fish all over the west coast of Scotland with kayak & boat. So far this car has done everything I've asked

[erichaynes]

My neighbor in Thailand bought this for around 27K USD last Oct. I got to ride in it today it's a very nice ride with excellent refinement. The infotainment screen was super impressive, his Apple Car Play worked flawlessly and I was amazed by the overhead animation(or whatever it's called). I think he said the parts were made in China but fit together here in Thailand but not sure. A very nice car for the price imho.
