New budget-friendly MG S5 EV undercuts SUV rivals

The latest MG SUV model, oddly named MG S5 EV, has just arrived in the UK with prices starting at just £28,495. That buys you the Standard Range model which gets 211 miles from a 49kWh battery. The Long Range model gets a bigger 64kWh battery for a maximum claimed range of 298 miles, which drops to 288 miles for the sportier-looking Trophy Long Range.

Prices rise to £30,995 for the Long Range and £33,495 for the Trophy, which is just £500 more than the entry-level Kia EV3 with its 270 mile range and £145 more than a Skoda Elroq SE L 60 with its 260 mile range.
