MG launches a 7-seater hybrid SUV
With the MGS9 PHEV, MG enters the mid-size family SUV segment for the first time in Europe.
The Sino-British manufacturer MG is expanding its range with a new model aimed at large families and versatile uses. Named MGS9 PHEV, this large plug-in hybrid SUV marks the brand’s entry into the seven-seater vehicle segment, a growing market in Europe.
Positioned above the MG EHS in the lineup, the MGS9 PHEV stands out with more generous dimensions and the integration of a third row of seats. The interior thus offers three rows allowing it to accommodate up to seven occupants.
Modularity is one of the key selling points of the model. When the third-row seats are folded down, the trunk can exceed 1,000 liters in volume, providing space suitable for transporting bulky items or for family usage. Even with all seven seats occupied, the trunk retains a capacity of 332 liters, allowing for several pieces of luggage.
A well-electrified hybrid
Under the hood, the MGS9 PHEV adopts the plug-in hybrid architecture already used by MG on other models. The system combines a turbocharged 1.5-liter gasoline engine with a 24.7 kWh battery. According to data provided by the manufacturer, this configuration allows for up to 100 kilometers of range in 100% electric mode, a value that can cover the majority of daily trips.
The standard equipment is also comprehensive. The SUV features synthetic leather upholstery, a panoramic sunroof, heated, ventilated, and massaging seats, as well as a tri-zone climate control system aimed at enhancing the comfort of occupants in all three rows.
In terms of safety, the model claims to have received the maximum five-star rating in Euro NCAP tests. This performance is notably backed by the use of high-strength steels in the structure and the integration of up to 16 driving aids, encompassing various assistance and prevention technologies.
