We have been keeping an eye on the MG5 Electric for a while, because we do see something in a fully electric station wagon. Thanks to the large and practical trunk, this could be the most useful EV of all. That comes with a sober price tag.
Because the Dutch prices of the MG5 Electric start at 33,985 euros, while at the unveiling it was promised that "prices start below 30,000 euros"! Logically, we were looking forward to a base price of 29,995 euros. But the final price is 4 grand higher.

The Comfort version is the downright rich basic version with 16-inch wheels, fabric upholstery, air conditioning, LED lighting, heated seats and an extensive safety system including adaptive cruise control. The Luxury is 1500 euros more expensive and has 17-inch wheels, leather upholstery, climate control and a 360-degree camera.
The MG5 Electric will arrive at the Dutch MG Brand Stores in March.
