MG HS Launch Review

Just got the MG HS EXCITE. I love it. It’s so comfortable and easy to drive.

Great quick review. Made me smile all the way through, the quality was somthing way above what I expected. I recently test drove the ZS and was quite surprised by that and enjoyed it. I think MG are learning quick and have brought a british marque to the modern era. Great review I'd hope to test one of these when one comes to a dealer near me.

[@AutoBears]

Thank you very much for your comment. MG has definitely taken a step up in interior quality with the HS without having to add a large premium to the car. As sales and success grow for MG they will develop their line-up and quality of their cars.

[@SupremeBehemoth]

Just purchased the HS Essence today. Can't wait to get my hands on it in less than a week! Great review!

[@TheMarathonomahos]

I did 810km on a tank last week. Longest trip ive done in it. Really impressed on that fuel economy.

[@coogycoogman3715]

Great review. I test drove the Exclusive model last week and was very impressed. I agree that it is no match in driving terms as the Ateca but I did have fun with the supersport button. The dealer also told me that the paddles on the steering wheel can be used as a manual in supersport mode. Nice sound from the exhausts too. Thanks . Dean

[@AutoBears]

Thank you for the comment. I feel that MG are able to produce a very decent car which is good value for money. The look and feel of the HS does feel more expensive than £24K. I might need to look at having one for review.

[@andymcafee8550]

First video I've seen of the HS, thanks for making this, covered it all. (y) ps. 18:41 "here in the ZS" :P

Thank you for the comment Eric. Individual mode is when you tailor various aspects of the drive of the car. Steering, Suspension, engine response to how you want it. Picking sportiness or economy for what you are after.

[@MarthaMansbridge]

Custom mode - means you can choose elements of the settings - none of them make sense and the menu screen to select your custom settings pops on the display for about 3 seconds so you have not time to select anything. It’s utterly pointless just like the other modes - engine is useless in all modes.

[@SimonIngram]

Looks a great car, and an excellent first review. Even if you do pronounce H as 'haytch' I enjoyed watching!

[@AutoBears]

Thank you for the comment. I can only apologise for my Somerset twang in pronouncing the Haytch. Glad you enjoyed the review.

[@hemmay]

Not your Somerset twang! 'H' is actually spelt and pronounced 'aitch'.But many people say 'haitch'. Great review.

[@BSu-ym5mo]

Simon Ingram (from the BBC Pronunciation Unit) British English dictionaries give aytch as the standard pronunciation for the letter H. However, the pronunciation haytch is also attested as a legitimate variant. We also do not ask broadcasters who naturally say haytch to change their pronunciation but if a broadcaster contacted to ask us, we would tell them that aytch is regarded as the standard pronunciation in British English, people can feel very strongly about this and this pronunciation is less likely to attract audience complaints. Haytch is a standard pronunciation in Irish English and is increasingly being used by native English-speaking people all across the country, irrespective of geographical provenance or social standing. Polls have shown that the uptake of haytch by younger native speakers is on the rise. Schoolchildren repeatedly being told not to drop Hs may cause them to hyper-correct and insert them where they don't exist.

[@SimonIngram]

B.Su Thank you for taking the time to respond. While your comments are coherent, the probable reason younger people are pronouncing haitch instead of aitch, could be because of the way they have been taught by role models.

James 7176 : MG have already got a 3 with a 1.5 turbo, it was shown at the MG Silverstone event in 2016. It was developed by the MG engineers at Longbridge with an output of 200bhp! They also have an automatic which is currently on all MG3’s sold in Australia, even my MG dealer has suggested they bring out an auto, but the Chinese are very reluctant to do so in the U.K. They treat the U.K. as a very niche market, MG’s main market is the Far East and India. There is a new very attractive MG6, again developed at Longbridge with various performance modifications, but again the Chinese will not release it here, it’s only available in China, Thailand and India. My dealer tells me there is a sports car in development which he’s seen at Longbridge, whether that comes to fruition time will tell. MG have a lot going on, but their main development is in SUV’s, that’s where the sales are world wide, which to me is a very bland and boring market, but that bubble will burst!

Agree Jhonny when it comes to value for money cars they nailed it.

I love this car MG need put a shit load off adverts on T.V and let everyone know

[@garyconnolly7889]

Aye and let people know about the software problems on the auto's leaving the car undrivable

[@MarthaMansbridge]

@@leestones9620 The entire car is crap - auto aside, the software in this car is diabolical. Fault after fault after fault - check out the forums, riddle with disgruntled owners increasingly drowned out by a few militant MG fanatics who won't have a bad word said. you're saving nothing buying one of these - the value plummets so fast you may as well just burn your money.

@@MarthaMansbridge thanks for the advise my missus was thinking off buying one in the near future

[@MarthaMansbridge]

@@leestones9620 Please don't. We can hardly give our away and it's only 8 months old - lost £10k in value, 0% interest seemed attractive, now we know why. We've basically burned £300 a month and lost a further £10k in value - we could've rented a Range Rover for less money.

Great review but, aitch not haitch...

[@AutoBears]

Thank you for the comment. Apologies, that’s the Celtic trying to escape. 😂

[@hemmay]

Just a bugbear of mine. Of course your excellent review far outweighs the 'aitch' issue!

Shame that MG are bringing out great cars like the HS and the ZS EV but can't deliver them at any meaningful volume. With a main stream manufacturer you would be told your car is build week X and that delivery from then would be Y weeks when placing an order. Not so with MG who claim impressive car sales but are these cars really sold? (orders and deposits taken not cars delivered!) It seems that MG wait to see what the next ship brings in, park them all up in a field and then distribute to dealers from the front of that parking lot to the rear hoping that the thousands of orders already taken some how match up what the boat brought in and that the spec/colour combinations they blindly predicted will sell. If you want to compete with the big boys great products are only part of the story MG. Placed an order within the first weeks of release and being told car may be here Feb/March 2020. Not good enough MG, customers should be given better timelines than these. If you can't meet the same excellence as other makes in terms of build time then at least you could allocate cars to customers as they leave the line, not waiting for then to arrive in UK. I have been told that 10 days warning of your car arriving at the dealership is the best you get after waiting months for a delivery date. I'm likely to withdraw my order soon as no news is not good news.
