- The MG HS promises to deliver everything you could want from a mid-size SUV but for significantly less money than most of its rivals. So join Tim for a full walkaround, interior and driving review of the MG HS with its 1.5-litre petrol engine to find out if it's got what it takes to challenge the VW Tiguan… or if it just seems a little too cheap to be good.

I've had the pleasure of hiring this car for a week and I must say I was really impressed! Only downside I noticed was the shifter would often get stuck in N when trying to reverse. It took at least 2-3 shifts to get into reverse, which isn't great. But ride comfort, practicality, quality and space was really impressive.
I picked my new HS up 4days ago and so far it's been fine, There are some things I don't like and some stuff that it has to go back for like the auto lock is not working and the DAB radio will not pick up lots of channels which is a bit odd, But over the ride and drive has been fine. But I am happy with it so far and its a big car for the money.
Had my MG HS Trophy for a week and can only say WOW in the value for money SUV market, The drive is very comfortable and feels quicker than the 9.9 sec 0 - 62 . The amount of kit is crazy for the price this is a very good sized SUV, interior actually feels quite premium is it without fault NO but is it incredible value for very little money YES. I would have liked a rear interior light and some physical dials/ buttons and a bit better ecconomy but as this seems to be the way modern cars are heading and I realise that there has to be some compromise this really is a great car for the money. I have driven many cars that have 4x the price tag that have not felt twice as good, Mind over Heart 7 year warranty this is the car.
Chinese rubbish.
A modern vehicle only doing 30mpg is a big turn off for me.
Mate I can't even get 30 in getting 25mpg big mistake
AMT mode ( 45 to 50 mpg !! 😊 - easily accessible in Engineering mode
@@JP-ms3ml can't seem to get into that mode 2024 mg hs
While still considering, i have been scrutinizing the 7 yr warranty. Duration wise. For the ice engine (auto gearbox) Its only going to cover engine if under the 80k mileage ( if you have regular full mg service history) other items have up too 12 weeks only and moving on for other parts up to 3 yrs or a certain mileage , If any of these items fail in the 12 weeks or fail after 3 years you are left (warrantyless) on your jack Jones . Just sayin .
I can see the attraction but the one I had on rental for a week was a very disappointing drive and the audio is awful.
I get 28mpg I've done 1300 miles got it brand new on eco, DO NOT GET IT unless you love fueling up.
nice one mate 👍 like your review style , shame the uk version now doesnt have glass roof as a option as was with the previous hs , but it seems our european neighbours do have a glass roof in retweaked model, if desired ?
Yes, we have a panoramic roof in Poland :) !
It looks great spec wise, just don’t look at the mpg real world less than 36mpg, my Tiguan Elegance 2.0L 150 DSG diesel real world 46mpg in 30 months of driving over 60mpg on a journey.
Please tell also about its fixing-repair-ability. Cause it is not tin can. you know...
Would you buy this over a standard MINI hardtop?
NO PLS DONT
Mine mg hs is different and soo good it has 2.0L engine and awd and 30turbo
Its beyond me why they didnt make the mg hs with a diesel option, stick in a 1.6 or 2.0 turbo diesel engine and it be economical too, ive got a jeep renegade 1.6 multijet diesel limited edition and its great on fuel over 60 mpg and one trip managed 83 mpg, an has plenty go about it too, only 120 hp but 320 nm torque so great for overtaking , they need stick this mutijet diesel engine into the mg hs and it would make a big difference in real world mpg 👍😁🏴
Diesel is being banned in the UK so not much point unfortunately!
Mpg has just put me off 😢
As Far as I can see. The only thing Missing is in fact, A Heated Steering wheel. Hmmm. M G. Please rectify this. Asap.
No comment- get it….?
Buying an mg is like buying a bluetooth speaker from poundland
I’ve had several of these from AVIS rental and have to say I’m impressed with the quality inside for the price.
Negatives for me are USB-A! Ports. What a joke in a modern car and a nightmare if you have the latest iPhone with USB-C as it’s difficult to get a cable.
The electric tailgate is annoying you have to tap the capacitive button and immediately step back if you try and help it the tailgate just stops and is heavy to open manually.
Oh and the speed warning voice is so annoying and I couldn’t figure out how to turn it off.
How these cars are getting 5 star ncap ratings beggars belief, mgs autopilot has to be one of the most dangerous ‘safety’ systems I’ve ever experienced, it’s almost as though it’s a tick in the box exercise about what a car has rather than does it actually work.
What’s wrong with it ? I have been using it for more than 2 years now and it’s been always reliable . I use it very often like the moment I get onto motorway .
Because of my age and disability. I need a Comfortable car. Is this?
Trying too hard to be a Clarkson clone.
Recomend this car ?
I do not! Is trash.....
@@FreeMySpirit 🤣👍
Just bought the petrol only version. Absolutely trash!!!!! The gear box and engine are rubbish plus the quality of the used materials screams cheap China..... I wish I never bothered with this overpriced junk.....
your getting about
You didn’t drive a test to check car on road , you didn’t touch materials inside before purchase? Really you spend 20k £ and now you are crying like a little girl?
Smells like a fake review to me…..
You like it really
next time don't buy your car over the phone or online. Take it out for a test drive instead.
Its a british car!!! not Chinese
said no one ever.
Not anymore it isnt, chinese own the brand now.
Not a british brand anymore. Chinese owned and Chinese built.
@@redlineste4283
Yet MGs world wide HQ and design centre is in England.
@@johnbrereton5229 british heritage yes but brand now Chinese. Not a single vehicle made here.
Supporting Communism.
keep out of politics and keep support your local pub
Front, Mazda cx5, back lights from Mercedes, and siluet, Renault kadjar, chinese copy junk car..
All cars are copies of each other, nothing new there, that’s why they all look more or less the same. Responding to market demand they call it. Ford are the current design leaders like it or not, they have owned all the leading British automakers over the past decades and have therefore the design rights.
The Aston Martin design is predominantly in the Ford range today. Transmissions from acquisitions are also identifiable.
The owners of MG make parts for most of main brands including vw/ seat/ Audi,/ Skoda, so will look alike but should also prove to be reliable
