Description
Infinity Automotive Solutions are pleased to market this 2021 MG5 EV 52.5kWh Excite Estate, finished in Arctic White with just 2 owners and 31,000 miles from new. If you want the space of a proper estate car with the running costs of an electric, there is very little else on the used market that does it for this money — the MG5 was Britain's first all-electric estate, and it remains one of the most sensible used EVs you can buy.
The headline is the boot. At 578 litres with the seats up and 1,456 litres with them folded, it swallows more than most family SUVs and does it in a low, square, easy-to-load shape — dogs, buggies, golf clubs, flat-pack, trade gear, it all goes in without a fight. Rear legroom is generous too, so this is a genuine five-seat family car rather than a compromise.
Excite specification covers the day-to-day essentials without fuss: an 8-inch colour touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, DAB radio and Bluetooth, a reversing camera with rear parking sensors, air conditioning, cruise control, alloy wheels, a leather-trimmed steering wheel, LED daytime running lights, electric windows and heated electric door mirrors. Everything you actually use, and nothing you have to pay to maintain.
On the road it is quicker than the badge suggests. The 115kW (156ps) motor produces 260Nm the instant you touch the throttle, so it pulls away from junctions with real urgency and cruises quietly at motorway speeds, with a 115mph top speed and 0-62mph in a little over 8 seconds. Three levels of regenerative braking let you dial in how much the car slows when you lift off, recovering charge as you go.
The 52.5kWh battery gives an official WLTP range of 214 miles, with most owners reporting a realistic 170-180 miles in mixed driving — comfortably a week of commuting for many. A 50kW rapid charger takes it from empty to 80% in around 50 minutes, and a 7kW home wallbox will fill it overnight in roughly eight and a half hours. Charge at home on an EV tariff and the fuel cost is a small fraction of a diesel estate's.
Best of all, MG's 7-year / 80,000-mile warranty is fully transferable to you as the next owner, so there is still meaningful factory cover left on this car — a rare thing at this price and a real reassurance for anyone stepping into an electric vehicle for the first time. Zero tailpipe emissions, ULEZ and clean-air-zone compliant, and cheap to service.
