Home and Destination Charging (0 -> 100%)

Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the MG MG5 EV Long Range. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.

Type 2 (Mennekes - IEC 62196)
Charging Point Max. Power Power Time Rate
Wall Plug (2.3 kW) 230V / 1x10A 2.3 kW 29h30m 7 mph
1-phase 16A (3.7 kW) 230V / 1x16A 3.7 kW 18h15m 12 mph
1-phase 32A (7.4 kW) 230V / 1x29A 6.6 kW † 10h15m 20 mph
3-phase 16A (11 kW) 230V / 1x16A 3.7 kW † 18h15m 12 mph
3-phase 32A (22 kW) 230V / 1x29A 6.6 kW † 10h15m 20 mph

† = Limited by on-board charger, vehicle cannot charge faster.

Rapid Charging (10 -> 80%)

Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the MG MG5 EV Long Range.

  • Max. Power: maximum power provided by charge point
  • Avg. Power: average power provided by charge point over a session from 10% to 80%
  • Time: time needed to charge from 10% to 80%
  • Rate: average charging speed over a session from 10% to 80%
Combined Charging System (CCS Combo 2)
Charging Point Max. Power Avg. Power Time Rate
CCS (50 kW DC) 50 kW 40 kW † 63 min 140 mph
CCS (100 kW DC) 63 kW † 53 kW † 48 min 180 mph
CCS (150 kW DC) 63 kW † 53 kW † 48 min 180 mph
This vehicle supports Autocharge
This vehicle does not support Plug & Charge

† = Limited by charging capabilities of vehicle

Autocharge: allows for automatic initiation of a charging session at supported CCS charging stations.

Plug & Charge: allows for automatic initiation of a charging session at supported CCS charging stations in accordance with ISO 15118.

Actual charging rates may differ from data shown due to factors like outside temperature, state of the battery and driving style.

All about the MG MG5 EV Long Range

No longer available

This electric vehicle is no longer in production and not available to buy new. The MG MG5 EV Long Range was available from July 2020 until June 2022. Financial data like price, leasing and company car tax were applicable to the final year of availability of the MG MG5 EV Long Range.

A new model of the MG MG5 EV Long Range (2020) is available: MG MG5 EV Long Range (2022).

Pricing

The MG MG5 EV Long Range had a Recommend Retail Price (RRP) of £28,940 and an On The Road Price (OTR) of £28,995. The OTR Price includes VAT, first year of VED, vehicle first registration fee, number plates and delivery.

Drivetrain and Performance

The MG MG5 EV Long Range is a full electric vehicle (BEV). The maximum power of the MG MG5 EV Long Range is 115 kW (154 hp). The maximum torque is 192 lb-ft. The MG MG5 EV Long Range is front wheel drive and can accelerate from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 7.7 seconds. The top speed is 115 mph.

Battery and Charging

The battery of the MG MG5 EV Long Range has a total capacity of 61.1 kWh. The usable capacity is 57.4 kWh (estimate). A range of about 210 miles is achievable on a fully charged battery. The actual range will however depend on several factors including climate, terrain, use of climate control systems and driving style.

For example: sustaining high speeds in cold weather could result in a range of around 145 mi. However, driving at low speeds in mild weather will increase the range to around 315 mi.

Charging is done using a Type 2 connector and the on-board charger has a maximum power of 6.6 kW. This charges a fully depleted battery back to full in around 10 hours 15 minutes. Charging the car using a regular wall plug will take around 29 hours 30 minutes.

Rapid charging is possible through a CCS connection. The maximum rapid charge power is 63 kW. The battery can't be charged continuously at this power. In an average rapid charge session the average charge power will be around 53 kW. This charges the battery from 10% to 80% in around 50 minutes. A rapid charge like this will add about 145 miles of range.

Energy Consumption

The combined (motorway and city) energy consumption of the MG MG5 EV Long Range is about 273 Wh per mile. By comparison, this energy consumption is the equivalent of a fuel consumption of 148 mpg in a traditional petrol car.

The actual energy consumption will depend on several factors including climate, terrain, use of climate control systems and driving style. For example: sustaining high speeds in cold weather could result in an energy use of around 396 Wh per mile. However, driving at low speeds in mild weather will increase the efficiency to about 182 Wh per mile.

CO2 Emission

The MG MG5 EV Long Range emits no CO2 during driving. This only includes direct emissions from the vehicle itself. The energy needed to charge the battery might have been (partly) generated by the use of fossil fuels. Vehicles with an internal combustion engine will always emit CO2 during driving. Additionally, CO2 is emitted during the production and transport of fossil fuels.
