Choose your MG HS trim to decide on the features and kit you want from your SUV. Each model is impressive and great value for money, but there are levels of extras to pick from.

MG HS history

The MG HS is a relatively new option on the SUV market but it’s easily catching up with the old favourites.

> First-generation MG HS (2019 – present) - replacing the MG GS, the HS was first launched with a choice of petrol engine options and automatic or manual gearboxes

> MG HS PHEV (2020) - the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) HS model was launched in 2020

> MG HS facelift (2023) - adding a larger grille, new rear LEDs, plus sharper lighting all round

What features does the MG HS have?

With the HS being placed as a budget SUV, it won’t come close to any Range Rover as far as technology and luxury is concerned, but it still does a good job.  

In the centre of the dashboard is a 10.1-inch infotainment system that’s easy to use and smooth to operate. It has an inbuilt sat-nav system as well as Android Auto and Apple CarPlay smartphone connectivity. 

The standard SE trim boasts features such as a leather steering wheel, air-con, leather-style upholstery, reversing camera with sensors and adjustable seats.  

Move up to the Trophy spec and you’ll get all the above plus heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, sportier seats, a 360-degree parking camera and ambient lighting. 

Is the MG HS reliable?

In the past, MGs never had the best reputation regarding reliability, but when the brand was taken over by the Chinese giant SAIC Motors in 2007, this improved tenfold. 

This change saw vast improvements to overall reliability and build quality thanks to SAIC’s expertise. 

Every new MG car comes with a seven-year/80,000-mile warranty that transfers to the new owner – assuming it hasn’t expired. 

Following its most recent Euro NCAP crash-test, the MG HS scored a full five stars thanks to safety features such as Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), ISOFIX child seat mounting points, plenty of airbags and a lane assist system. 

How much does the MG HS cost to run?

There are two different engines on offer: a 1.5-litre petrol engine, and a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) – both mated to an automatic gearbox.  

Obviously, the latter is pricier, but you’ll save money in the long run with fuel costs as it’s more efficient.  

In terms of fuel economy, the petrol engine offers around 35mpg, whereas the PHEV has a claimed figure of around 150mpg. 

Insurance is another large factor in overall vehicle ownership, but with the HS sitting between insurance groups 16 and 33 (for older models), this shouldn’t be as high as with some other cars. 

Being owned by SAIC, MGs are now more reliable than ever and therefore require less maintenance than perhaps they once did – providing you keep up with regular servicing and general maintenance. 

Who is the MG HS suitable for?

A used MG HS is perfect for families who don’t wish to spend a fortune on a large SUV. 

Buying this model will get you a great SUV deal that comes with lots of interior features and practicality.

 It rivals the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4 and Skoda Kodiaq but undercuts them in price while still offering high levels of interior tech.
