MG has strengthened its position in the automotive market with the launch of the all new HS 2026. The model blends comfort, technology, and efficiency, making it a complete choice for families and drivers who want a smart and practical SUV. The latest HS enters the mid size SUV segment with confidence, offering hybrid powertrains, modern styling, and a spacious cabin equipped with advanced features.

Hybrid powertrain with two advanced options


MG equipped the HS 2026 with two different hybrid systems designed to meet diverse needs.

  • Hybrid+: Powered by a 1.5 liter turbocharged petrol engine paired with an electric motor and a compact 1.8 kWh battery. This setup delivers 224 hp and 340 Nm of torque.


    Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes 7.9 seconds, while fuel economy stands at 5.5 L per 100 km based on WLTP standards.

  • Plug in Hybrid Super Hybrid: Uses the same petrol engine but adds a larger 21.4 kWh battery for a combined output of 272 hp and 350 Nm of torque.

    It sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.8 seconds. This version offers an electric only range of up to 113 km and a total driving range of more than 1000 km when combining petrol and electric power. Fuel consumption is as low as 0.5 L per 100 km, making it one of the most efficient options in its class.

Exterior Design Blending Style and Function


MG introduced the second generation of the HS in July 2024 with a design inspired by the Roewe RX5. The new model showcases sharper lines, a longer body, and a more spacious cabin. These updates give the SUV a refined look that balances sleek aerodynamics with everyday practicality. The revised dimensions also provide more legroom in the rear seats and a larger cargo area to suit family needs.

At the front, the bold grille and modern headlights stand out, while the sides and rear maintain a balanced identity that combines elegance with functionality.

Advanced Cabin and Smart Features


Step inside the HS 2026 and the focus on technology and comfort becomes clear.

  • A 12.3 inch digital instrument cluster.

  • A matching 12.3 inch infotainment screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support.

  • Wireless smartphone charging for daily convenience.

  • Seats made with premium materials designed for long lasting comfort.


MG also prioritized safety by equipping the SUV with the MG Pilot suite, which includes automatic emergency braking, lane keeping assistance, and multiple alerts to boost driver confidence on the road.

Competitive Value in Global Markets


MG aims to attract buyers who are looking for the right balance between price and features, and the HS 2026 has been priced strategically:

  • The Hybrid+ version starts at around 42,990 AUD (103,277 AED).

  • The Plug-in Hybrid version is priced at about 52,990 AUD (127,300 AED).


The petrol variant has also received strong praise in the UK market, being recognized as one of the best value options thanks to its smooth driving experience and spacious interior, especially when compared to traditional rivals offered at higher prices.
