New MG5 EV debuts at Goodwood Festival of Speed

Today marks the first day of the 2022 Goodwood Festival of Speed and also the day when various models from some of the biggest automakers are to make either a global premiere or a dynamic UK debut. The latest all-electric version of the MG5 is attending the festivities at the Goodwood Estate for the latter.

According to MG Motor UK, the first official UK viewing of the new MG5 EV will take place on Electric Avenue starting today, June 23, with the award-winning all-electric estate car taking center stage at Goodwood’s dedicated EV section.

“The MG5 EV has quickly established a strong following as a practical, affordable, and efficient estate car and we’re seeking to build upon that success by offering customers an even more attractive, compelling design as well as a generous range of technology upgrades. The MG ‘Get More’ philosophy is a key part of our approach — we believe our customers should get more and as standard — and we are confident that the new MG5 EV strongly reflects this,” said MG Motor UK Commercial Director Guy Pigounakis.

Some of the features flaunted by the new all-electric station wagon include revised front and rear bumpers, redesigned LED head and rear lights, and new wheel designs. The new MG5 EV will also come equipped with vehicle-to-load (V2L) capability — a feature first seen on the ZS EV — that allows owners to power other electric devices, such as e-bikes, portable heaters, and camping equipment, using the energy stored in the battery.

The new MG5 EV has also received interior design and technology upgrades, including a 10.25-inch widescreen infotainment system with upgraded software, and is now capable of supporting iSMART connected car functionality through MG’s dedicated smartphone app.

According to MG, further details on the new MG5 EV will be released soon, including announcements on UK pricing and expected delivery dates.
