Used MG MG5
With generous boot space, a roomy cabin and low running costs, it’s a smart, no-fuss option for everyday family life. If you're after estate-style versatility with the benefits of electric driving, the MG5 could be just the ticket. It’s known for its spacious layout, easy-loading boot and strong value – especially when compared to pricier electric rivals. First launched in 2020, the MG5 helped fill a gap in the market as one of the first budget-friendly electric estates. A 2022 facelift brought fresh styling, updated tech and improved range, making it even more appealing. Against other electric family cars, the MG5 keeps things accessible, offering practicality without the premium price tag. Long Range versions can travel up to 250 miles on a single charge (WLTP), and you’ll find plenty of equipment as standard, even on entry trims.
