MG5 Electric Standard Range

The MG MG5 Electric Standard Range is a 5-seat estate with front-wheel drive, sold new from 2022 to 2025, when it cost €35,490 in Germany, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 7.7 seconds, slower than 67% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 165 miles (265 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That puts it among the shortest-range 10% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and the shortest of 26 estates.

It uses around 3.6 mi/kWh (174 Wh/km), about the same as the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 46 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 52 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 168 miles (270 km) at motorway speeds.

No heat pump is listed for this version, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery. The battery uses LFP chemistry, which manufacturers generally allow to be charged to 100% routinely.

Second-hand in Germany, a 2022 example is estimated at €11,500–€13,400 and a 2025 one at €20,200–€23,100, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2022 car should still manage about 152 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
