MG made an impact with its European sales in 2020. As the 100% electric MG ZS EV passed its first full year of sales – The Netherlands (since October 2019), Norway (February 2020), Iceland and Denmark (both only 6 months of sales) – the brand not only realized great sales results, but also reached top 10 positions!
With the new MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid, MG launched its second model in mainland Europe. Given the success of the MG ZS EV, it’s a car that the media is looking forward to with great interest. But what is the first impression of the European media on the MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid? We have listed a number of reports from international media. See for yourself!
MG is a new smart car brand for everyone Young at Heart and willing to make a change. MG is convinced that New Energy Mobility is the future and that everyone will drive electric cars soon. For who’s already persuaded, MG offers the 100% electric MG ZS EV. For those who aren’t ready yet to drive purely electric and want to benefit from the advantages of a good old petrol engine and the efficiency of an electric drive train, we have the MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid.
Lots of you couldn’t visit us in December, so we decided to flip things around and visit you instead. We sent a giant MG Christmas truck on a tour through Europe with a huge image of the new MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid on the side. It’s fair to say it was pretty hard to miss!
The electric motors used in the new MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid and MG ZS EV benefit from so-called “Hairpin” wiring. This advanced technology increases the efficiency of an electric motor by “only” 1%. Yet, that one percent has a lot of influence on the efficiency, the power density, the thermal resistance and the NVH performance of MG’s smart SUV’s. Let’s take a look how this works.
The time has come: MG launched the new MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid! Following the fully electric MG ZS EV, this is the second model of MG in mainland Europe. During the online launch, all information about the MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid was discussed. We also gave an insight into our European future strategy, including a first impression of the models that will follow. Watch the video below and discover all the ins and outs of our new MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid!
The MG ZS EV and MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid benefit from highly advanced battery technology with an impressive level of safety and durability. That’s because MG’s parent company – SAIC Motor – is one of the most experienced EV manufacturers in the world, which also partners with China’s largest lithium-ion battery manufacturer CATL.
China’s largest carmaker, SAIC Motor, recently exported 1,800 MG vehicles to Europe via its self-owned direct international route. It’s the first time this new route has been used and it will help realize the company’s goal of selling 100,000 of its self-owned brand vehicles in Europe by 2025.
The MG ZS EV is firmly established as a very affordable, family-friendly electric SUV that meets the high demands of European motorists. Also when it comes to safety. The MG ZS EV is the first electric SUV in the B segment to achieve the maximum of five stars in the Euro NCAP crash tests!
