Estimated prices by model year, from its price when new and typical EV depreciation, and the real-world range you can expect today after about 2% battery wear a year. These are estimates, not valuations: mileage, condition and battery health make a big difference.

Summary
The MG MG5 EV Long Range is a 5-seat estate with front-wheel drive, sold new from 2020 to 2022, when it cost £28,995 in the UK, 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 211 miles (340 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 28% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 25th of 26 estates.
It uses around 3.7 mi/kWh (169 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 57.4 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 53 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 192 miles (309 km) at motorway speeds.
No heat pump is listed for this version, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L).
Second-hand, a 2020 example is estimated at £6,800–£8,900 and a 2022 one at £9,400–£11,000, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2020 car should still manage about 187 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
