MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid Launched In Europe

MG has launched the new MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid in mainland Europe at a starting price of € 34,000 (roughly Nrs 48 Lakh without tax). The power train comprises a 1.5-litre turbo engine, an ingenious 10-speed transmission, an electric motor, and a 16.6 kWh lithium-ion battery. In EV mode, the MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid can travel up to 52 km fully electrically (WLTP).A tried-and-tested 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine (162 hp and 250 Nm) works optimally with a powerful (122 hp and 230 Nm) electric motor. The vehicle boasts a system power of 258 hp, with a 370 Nm peak torque. A 16.6 kWh lithium-ion battery powers the strong electric motor, enabling the MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid to cover a maximum distance of 52 km (WLTP), purely driven by the electric motor. The SUV accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.9 seconds. Similarly, for maximum traction, the model is equipped as standard with XDS electronic differential lock.The petrol engine's drive torque is transmitted by a 6-speed automatic gearbox, while the electric motor transmits the power through an electronic drive unit with four gears. Together, they form a 10-speed automatic gearbox. The average CO2 emission of the MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid has been established as 43 g/km (WLTP).The MG EHS Plug-in Hybrid is 4,574 mm long, 1,876 mm wide and 1,664 mm high, making it roomier than most of its competitors in the C‑SUV segment. It has a 2,720 mm wheelbase. The vehicle offers an ample 448 litres of cargo capacity, which can be expanded to no less than 1,375 litres when the rear seats are folded down.MG is also focused on safety. This is reflected in the five-star rating that the petrol variant, as well as the MG ZS EV, scored in the Euro NCAP safety tests. The excellent safety score is partly due to the extensive range of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) grouped together under the name MG Pilot. These include Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Spot Information System, Forward Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Departure Warning and a 360-degree camera.
