MG teases the new electric MG S5 SUV for the UK as a replacement for the MG ZS, with a debut expected in the coming weeks.
Now, the MG4 is underpinning a new electric MG SUV with the imminent arrival of the new MG S5, teased today by MG, to replace the ageing ZS with something more current.
The teaser shot of the S5 shows the back end in shadows, but it does seem an almost pointless exercise as the MG 5S is already on sale in Asia (badged either MG ES or MG S5, depending on the market) so those are the images you see at the top and bottom of this article.
MG UK teases the new MG S5 EV SUV
With its MG4 underpinnings, the powertrain offerings for the S5 seem likely to be the same of very similar, although at launch it’s likely to be a single rear-motor offering with around 170bhp and a choice of 49kWh or 62kWh battery.
David Allison, Head of Product and Planning for MG Motor UK, said:
The MGS5 EV has all the credentials to impress, a generously equipped and spacious SUV but with the all-electric performance that MG customers enjoy so much. In terms of cabin ambience and technology this model will offer a new and greatly enhanced MG experience.
MG says the MG S5 will debut in the spring.

Shame about the so called 7 years warranty as most things only cover for 3 years. Leatherette seats only have one year warranty and my friends mg zs has a big split seat which mg say he has to pay so mg u need to upgrade Ur warranty as it falls way behind Kia honda and any other manufacturer Ur the worst car maker selling cars in the UK. I have a 2 year old mg zs Wel it’s two years on the 10 of march it’s had 6 things wrong like the dashboard clocks wall went off and they are £500 to replace the Chinese window wiper blades are £54 and not a touch on the better Bosch wiper blades at only £24 nearly half the price this is my first mg and it’s my last mg rip mg Ur warranty is pertheitic honestly
