Combining all the comfort and practicality of a classic estate with a modern interior feel and state-of-the-art features, the MG 5 Exclusive 52.5kWh is an ideal choice for those looking to go electric with their family car.

In partnership with Cheltenham-based EV specialist Cleevely EV, SoGlos explores all of the important bits — along with what sets it apart from other estates on the market — in our Gloucestershire EV of the month series.

Key stats

The MG 5 Exclusive 52.5kWh has a great range of 190 to 210 miles on a single charge — plenty for heading off on adventures.

It comes with a Type 2 three-pin charge cable included and has rapid charging capabilities, too, giving you up to 80 per cent charge from zero in 50 minutes from a 50kwh charging station.

Interior features

The interior of the MG 5's Exclusive spec offers all-round comfort and a splash of luxury for drivers and passengers, with leather upholstery throughout, a leather steering wheel and ample leg room in every seat, front and back.

Other features include an eight-inch central touchscreen display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity; a DAB radio; heated front seats; air conditioning; and electric windows, while other key bits for drivers include an inbuilt sat nav and cruise control with a speed limiter function.

Exterior features

Outside, the MG 5 Exclusive has a modern estate design with a sleek red paint job and alloy wheels. It also has roof bars — another feature that is perfect for adventuring, allowing you to transport anything from bikes and kayaks to camping equipment. 

For drivers there's a colour reversing camera; rear parking sensors; automatic headlights with LED daytime running lights; and electric folding wing mirrors.

SoGlos loves

While the comfort and luxury of its heated leather seats is most welcome, the MG 5 Exclusive 52.5kWh is, after all, an estate — and its main draw is the space you get inside. Its boot is a sizeable 464 litres, giving you plenty of room to pack everything for your family holiday, day trip or outdoor adventure.

The MG 5 Exclusive 52.5kWh is available at Cleevely EV from £13,995.
