You're trying to wind me up aren't you?rickwookie wrote: ↑Sun Jul 19, 2020 10:38 am Has anyone else seen the MG 5 EV? I know it’s OT since it’s not a comparable alternative, more an entire new category. If they can somehow squeeze a rear motor in it, to make it AWD and twice the power (It’s currently FWD only at about 100 kW), it would definitely get me out of my R36 (is practically looks exactly like a Passat estate anyway!)
It’s a hell of a lot more space and range for less money than the e.
For me, an estate is a really welcome addition to the EV world, when even Nissan’s new offering is yet another chuffing SUV.
Oh and the Polestar 2 desperately needs an estate version, after all, isn’t that what Volvo are famous for?
The MG5 is not an new category, it's an estate car.
Not surprisingly it looks like the Passat, that because it's built with VW parts as SAIC own both VW & MG.
It's cheaper for a reason, go and have a look & drive of the ZS EV, it'll soon become apparent to you. However if you're one of those people that likes the MG then good for you, and go buy one.
As for the for a second motor comment, where did that come from? Might as well say 'make a car run on water and I'll buy one'!
