    The MG3 Hybrid+ is a small full self-charging hybrid hatchback, it takes on competition from cars like the Toyota Yaris, Renault Clio E-Tech to name a couple.
    I first saw the MG3 Hybrid+ at the Geneva Motor Show earlier in the year, I was impressed by its sharp design which looks especially good in “Battersea Blue” metallic paintwork! Unfortunately, we don’t get it in yellow as other regions do.
    The hybrid powertrain is highly impressive and unique compared to other cars on the market. It pushes out 192BHP with a 3-speed automatic, this was smooth and made the engine “Roar” less than I’ve noticed in traditional CVT hybrids.
    There are 2 trims to choose from “SE” and “Trophy” I tested out the Trophy model which is £2,000 more than the SE, but I think it is definitely worth the extra cost with plenty of equipment added.

    Hi Sam, we have had our Trophy for three weeks, having come from a Saab 2011 93 Griffin. the car is brilliant, has great performance, and more standard equipment than most at twice the price, Well done MG

      Hi Jeremy thanks for sharing! I’m sure it wasn’t easy to let go of the Saab, but the MG sure will be more of a blast to drive, cheaper to fuel and easier to park. 😄

    Please learn from Car Expert Australia how to review a car. Your review was not informative enough.

      I went through all of the specifications of the vehicle, this is a UK review so the facts and pricing differ to AUS models.

    Brilliant review Sam👏 I came accroas your channel when I watched your review of the car at the Geneva car show. It inspired me to look into the car and was one of the first to place an order, based on your review without a test drive and I'd never driven an MG. I've been looking forward to this full review. I've had mine nearly 2 months now. I've got the Metalic Black Trophy Model. Just short of 1k mileage now and I have no complaints at all. You've been spot on, not critical and pointing out things people may not like. Keep up your reviews. This is an honest one. 🎉

    Well done Sam - quality work as always 😊 (even the wasp wanted to be associated with your good work 😂). Wonder if it’s the same wasp from your last MG review that’s been waiting for you to come back 🤣😁
    It’s a heck of a lot of Car for the money - I can see MG doing well with these. The lack of a split folding rear seat is a bizarre omission, like you it wouldn’t hugely bother me, but I can see it being missed by some buyers.
    That being said it’s performance, warranty and price more than make up for any odd shortcomings here and there 🙂

    • @Carcode
      @Carcode  3 місяці тому +2

      Cheers Richard! Yes I forgot about that, the wasp loves an MG 😅
      It sure is good value for money in this day in age, I agree it’s an odd corner to cut not having split folding rear seats, but again wouldn’t bother me majorly.

    Great review. I had a test drive of one these last month and thought it was very impressive. Don't know why everyone is obsessed with the lack of split rear seat. Ive been driving 31 years and never needed to fold half the seat down. Oh and dont be fooled by the 7 year warranty as hardly anything is covered after 3.

    • @Carcode
      @Carcode  3 місяці тому +1

      Thank you! I think for families and tip runs etc, the split seats are useful and some manufacturers take it a step further like Honda with their ‘Magic Seats’, so it’s just a step behind, but like you mentioned it’s really not a dealbreaker for the majority of people! Yes the MG warranty isn’t comprehensive for 7 years.

    • @arthurdardalis
      @arthurdardalis 2 місяці тому +2

      Are you sure about the warranty coverage??
      Here in Greece the warranty is 7years/150.000km and is bumper to bumper, ie everything is covered

    Not really a hybrid.... just how far does it go on a full charge.... it would be a great car with a battery thats capable of 30-40 miles and a 1 litre engine instead of the 1.5

    • @Carcode
      @Carcode  2 місяці тому +4

      I think you are thinking of a plug in hybrid, self charging hybrids like this don’t have a stated electric range as such, the system just all blends together to give you great MPG, the battery charges and discharges frequently as you drive along.

    Hi Sam,
    Great review!
    I’ve ordered mine went for SE spec as suited me more really.
    Having currently been driving a Hyundai Bayon 23 plate going to be a bit of a change just hope this car proves to be reliable 😊
