Adding new dimension to MG’S electrified drivetrain line-up, the MG HS Plug-in builds on the popularity and success of the MG ZS EV.

Providing an EV-only range of 32 miles with zero tailpipe emissions, it becomes MG’s first model to feature a Plug-in Hybrid drivetrain.

The combined electric and petrol motors provide an overall power output of 258PS, which also gives the model a performance advantage too.

With the ability to accelerate quickly from 0-60mph in 6.9 seconds, the MG HS Plug-in also introduces an innovative 10-speed transmission.

This transmission works with both the petrol and electric motors in order to optimise power and efficiency.

A six-speed automatic gearbox channels power from the petrol engine and the electric motor transfers power through a four-speed electronic drive unit.

Together they combine to provide optimal gear combination, keeping emissions as low and driver enjoyment and performance as high as possible.

The MG HS Plug-in boasts highly impressive economy figures and a low CO₂ emissions figure of just 43g/km.

In hybrid mode, this is an ideal car for longer journeys as the range of the car is limitless and you can put more petrol in when needed.

When using a Type 2 fast charger, the MG HS Plug-in can be charged from zero to 100% in just three hours.

A key feature of the MG HS Plug-in is its high-tech driver assistance suite called MG Pilot, which comes as standard.

MG pilot has been carried-over from the 5-star Euro NCAP rated petrol version and includes a number of safety aids.

These safety aids include Autonomous Emergency Braking, Blind Spot Detection, Adaptive Cruise Control, Forward Collision Alert, Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Alert.
