At the 2024 Goodwood Festival of Speed in United Kingdom held recently, the new generation MG HS produced by SAIC was officially unveiled. The new car is a brother model of the Roewe RX5 sold in China, equipped with a plug-in hybrid system composed of a 1.5T gasoline engine or a 1.5T + electric motor, priced at 24,995-31,495 pounds, equivalent to about 23-290,000 yuan, more than double the price of the models on sale in China.
From the outside, the silhouette of the new MG HS is very similar to that of the Roewe RX5, but the front of the car has been changed to a MG-style horizontal bar and big mouth design, which I personally think is better than the Roewe version, not so exaggerated.
Its body wheelbase is 2.75 meters, and the interior of the car adopts a 5-seat layout, which is basically similar to the Roewe RX5, and when it comes to the rear of the car, it basically maintains the original appearance of the Roewe RX5, and the familiar through-type taillights are highly recognizable.
此外，新车提供5款外观颜色，分别为White Pearl、Black Pearl、Sterling Silver Metallic、Hampstead Grey Metallic以及Dynamic Red Tri-coat。
The new car has different versions such as SE and Trophy, and the interior design is the same as that of the Roewe RX5, with dual 12.3-inch screens as standard, one is the instrument cluster, and the other is a touch screen, the latter supports Apple Apple CarPlay and Android Android Auto and other mobile phone interconnection, while mobile phone wireless charging and 360-degree panoramic image also appear in the car.
As an important model of MG overseas, the HS series has now developed to the second generation, with a solid user foundation, and can be regarded as a "hero" series made in China to go overseas.
As for whether the domestic market will follow up with the listing, I expect it not, because the domestic market is seriously involuted, and there are already Roewe RX5 and Roewe D5X DMH on the same platform and at the same price, which is actually enough.
