MG5 2022 Section 180DVVT Manual Youth Fashion Edition
The MG family's sporty aesthetics feature the brand's signature "Shark Hunter" front fascia design, with a large, blacked-out honeycomb grille paired with narrow, sharp LED headlights (including automatic headlights), creating a low-slung, aggressive stance. The sleek fastback body lines and 137.5-degree golden fastback angle ensure dynamism while effectively reducing wind resistance (drag coefficient approximately 0.278Cd). Standard 16-inch alloy wheels (205/55 R16 tires) offer a balance of fuel economy and grip, suitable for urban commuting. The rear design includes a small ducktail spoiler, blacked-out taillights (LED light source), and dual exhaust outlets on both sides, enhancing visual depth and sporty appeal. The vehicle's dimensions are 4675×1842×1473mm, with a wheelbase of 2680mm, placing it in the upper-middle range for a compact sedan and providing a solid foundation for interior space.
Equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine (model 15S4C), it delivers a maximum power of 88kW (120 hp) and a peak torque of 150 N·m, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. Its WLTC combined fuel consumption is only 5.6L/100km, balancing fuel economy and driving dynamics. The manual transmission model features a clear clutch engagement point and moderate shift throw, making it easy for beginners to quickly get started. Low-end torque output is smooth, suitable for following other vehicles in congested traffic; manual shifting allows for flexible control of power output, and downshifting provides direct throttle response when overtaking. At 120km/h, the engine speed is approximately 2500rpm, and noise levels are within acceptable limits, but rapid acceleration requires downshifting in advance to obtain sufficient power. Real-world owner tests show a combined fuel consumption of 6.5-7.2L/100km, with a minimum of 5.8L/100km on national highways at a constant speed, demonstrating better fuel economy than some competitors in its class.
Front seats: A 180cm tall passenger still has about a fist's worth of headroom. The driver's seat offers 6-way manual adjustment (including height adjustment), allowing passengers to easily find a comfortable seating position. Rear seats: Legroom is about one and a half fists, and headroom is about one fist. The center floor hump is relatively small, and even with three passengers, there is no noticeable feeling of crampedness. The sloping roofline has limited impact on rear headroom, which is better than some pure coupe models. Trunk: With a capacity of 401L, it can easily accommodate a 28-inch suitcase plus everyday items. The rear seats can be folded down completely, further enhancing its expandability. Interior storage: The front seats are equipped with a center armrest, cup holders, and door panel storage compartments, while the rear center armrest also includes cup holders, meeting daily needs.
The standard configuration includes a 10.25-inch touchscreen integrating Bluetooth, a reversing camera, and HUAWEI HiCar smartphone connectivity (supporting navigation, music, and other functions), offering excellent smoothness and interface design compared to other models in its class. A 3.5-inch color LCD instrument cluster clearly displays key information such as vehicle speed, fuel consumption, and tire pressure. The seats are upholstered in fabric, offering good breathability suitable for hot and humid climates. The manual air conditioning system with rear vents provides efficient cooling and heating, meeting daily needs. The engine compartment and chassis utilize multi-layered sound insulation materials, resulting in better wind and tire noise control than comparable joint-venture models at high speeds. Safety and convenience features include standard ABS+EBD, Electronic Stability Program (ESP), tire pressure monitoring, and a reversing camera, providing fundamental protection for driving safety. Dual front airbags and ISOFIX child seat anchors meet C-NCAP four-star safety standards. One-touch power windows for the driver's side, electrically adjustable exterior mirrors, and keyless start (with remote key) enhance ease of use.
