Accordingly, MG5 2026 is sold in 4 versions, with prices ranging from 59,900 - 69,900 Yuan (equivalent to 218.52 - 255 million VND). As a mid-life upgrade, MG5 2026 is mainly improved in equipment, while the design and basic specifications remain unchanged. The 2026 MG5 retains the sporty fastback styling of the previous generation, while adding two new exterior color options: orange and gray, in addition to red and white. The front of the car stands out with a large waterfall grille, combined with slim headlights and a ribbed hood.
At the rear, the 2026 MG5 sedan is integrated with a ducktail spoiler and dual exhaust pipes, emphasizing a youthful, sporty style. The overall dimensions of the car include length x width x height of 4,715 x 1,842 x 1,473 (or 1,480) mm, with a wheelbase of 2,680 mm, unchanged from the previous version. The cockpit of the MG5 2026 still maintains the old design with a flat-bottomed 3-spoke steering wheel, a 12.3-inch digital screen and a 12.3-inch or 10.25-inch central screen depending on the version. The physical button cluster below the screen is still retained for increased convenience.
The seats combine leather and fabric, with a new orange-black color scheme that gives a sporty feel. In the high-end version, the car is upgraded with a high-quality 8-speaker sound system and 256-color interior ambient lighting, which can automatically adjust the brightness and color according to the rhythm of the music and the outside lighting conditions. In addition, the car is also equipped with a series of smart technologies such as OTA software updates, AI virtual assistant, and level 2 driver assistance package (ADAS). The body has a torsional stiffness of 25,866 Nm/deg, of which 65% uses high-strength steel, helping to increase safety and stability during operation. The standard safety system includes 6 airbags throughout the interior. The MG5 2026 has two petrol engine options to suit the diverse needs of users. The standard version is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, producing 127 horsepower and 158 Nm of torque, combined with an 8-speed CVT gearbox. Fuel consumption according to WLTC standards is 6.38 liters / 100 km, while the maximum speed is 180 km / h. In the higher configuration, MG5 is equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged engine, providing a powerful capacity of 178 horsepower and 285 Nm of torque, with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT). Fuel consumption is at 6.45 liters/100 km, an insignificant difference compared to the regular version.
However, the performance of the turbocharged MG5 is outstanding with a maximum speed of 200 km/h and the ability to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 6.9 seconds. This version is aimed at young users who love the feeling of sporty driving and need higher performance at a reasonable price. With a starting price of just over 200 million VND in China, the MG5 2026 continues to be one of the popular sedan options with a unique design, powerful engine, and amenities beyond its price range. If distributed in Southeast Asian markets like Vietnam, this promises to be a formidable competitor in the C-class sedan segment.
