The MG HS is a significant step forward for the brand in Australia, and it isn't just about the sharp pricing. It is a compelling competitor in the medium-SUV segment.
Pros General feeling of quality, fit and finish is excellent Cabin insulation and execution are well done Value is unquestioned, including the warranty
Cons 1.5-litre engine is a little small for the medium-SUV segment There is a slight torque hole off the mark that you do notice Transmission is occasionally caught in the wrong gear when cruising
Not only does the MG HS offer excellent value for money, it also has a classy interior and punchy performance if you’re prepared to work the engine for it. Although its infotainment system is laggy and its engine rather coarse when pushed, it’s well worth considering.
Pros Cheap yet well equipped Plush interior Good ride and handling balance
Cons Small boot Coarse engine Pricey PCP deals
The MG HS is a practical family car that comes with a decent amount of standard equipment, but alternatives have more powerful engines that are cheaper to run. The MG HS is the brand’s largest SUV and an alternative to the likes of the Nissan Qashqai and Skoda Karoq. MG might not quite have the same brand kudos as these cars, but it makes a pretty good first impression. At least you get cruise control and automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection as standard, though, but you’ll have to fork out for a top-spec car if you want a reversing camera, LED headlights and a panoramic glass roof.
