It is equipped with a wealth of safety features, smart technology including MG Pilot Safety Systems and MG iSMART app connectivity, and comes with the reassurance of a 7-year warranty. Experience a smooth drive, smart design, and agile looks for a distinctly feel-good experience.
Made for Joy
Every aspect of the MG3 is crafted to enhance driving pleasure. It features modern styling with agile, athletic lines from every angle, complemented by a sophisticated interior equipped with premium features and intelligent safety systems. The Hybrid+ model offers advanced performance, with its engine working in harmony with a high-capacity battery to deliver low fuel consumption, reduced CO2 emissions, and class-leading power, all while ensuring a quiet and comfortable drive. Personalisation is key, with choices including two powertrain options (Petrol & Hybrid), six striking paint colours, and two trim levels for the Hybrid+ model.
Athletic Looks
The MG3 boasts agile style, evident from its bold grille to its smooth spoiler and distinctive light-trailed taillamp. Its presence is immediately felt, featuring a wide-open black grille and integrated LED headlamps. The sleek, compact body is supported by 16-inch five-spoke alloy wheels, designed to optimize aerodynamics and aesthetics. This design beautifully translates MG's classic style into a compact, athletic form suitable for contemporary drivers.
Refined Interior
Inside, the MG3 offers generous cabin space within its slim profile. The sophisticated all-black interior is highlighted by leather-style front seats* with 6-way adjustability** for the driver, ensuring ultimate comfort. High-gloss panels and chrome detailing add a touch of refinement, while the multifunctional soft-touch steering wheel provides intuitive control. The cabin is also practical, featuring numerous smart storage solutions, including adjustable front cup holders and an armrest tray, along with ample boot space that can be expanded by lowering the rear seats.
*Leather-style front seats are only available on MG3 Hybrid+ Trophy models.
**6-way adjustable seat is for the driver; the passenger seat is 4-way adjustable.
Smart Hybrid Power
The MG3 Hybrid+ combines the benefits of petrol power with economical electric driving, maximizing efficiency for both short city trips and longer journeys. It's an ideal choice for those looking to reduce emissions without committing to a fully electric vehicle.
Dual Power
For those new to electric driving, the MG3 Hybrid+ offers a smooth, quiet electric performance, with the petrol engine providing power when needed, eliminating range anxiety.
Better for the Environment
By utilizing fewer fossil fuels and offering zero tailpipe emissions in fully electric mode, the MG3 Hybrid+ helps reduce your carbon footprint.
Lower Running Costs
Drivers can expect to spend less on fuel and potentially benefit from lower road tax due to reduced emissions compared to conventional petrol and diesel cars.
Driving with a Big Plus
The advanced HEV Plus system in the MG3 Hybrid+ enhances the driving experience significantly.
Performance
The combination of a 100 kW electric motor and a 75 kW dedicated hybrid engine delivers robust power and seamless electric torque, particularly beneficial for urban commutes. This setup ensures great overall performance without compromising fuel economy or emissions.
Low Emissions
With CO2 emissions as low as 100g/km (WLTP), the MG3 Hybrid+ offers significantly lower emissions than comparable petrol cars, potentially leading to savings on tax and low-emission zone fees. It also boasts low running costs, achieving an impressive 4.4 L/100km (WLTP combined).
Ultra-efficient
Designed for efficiency, the MG3 Hybrid+ features a quick-response motor and a 3-speed hybrid transmission, making it one of the most efficient hybrid models in its class.
Smooth
Experience the instant response and effortless acceleration characteristic of electric vehicles. The high-capacity 1.8 kWh battery, the largest in its class, allows for more frequent use of EV mode, transforming stop-start traffic into a smooth, stress-free experience.
