There's lots to like here. Value at one end of the line-up; and startling speed at the other. If you can stretch to the single motor 100kWh model, you'll also get class-leading charging speed and a driving range figure that's difficult to beat. Some will like the styling and the nicely trimmed cabin; others won't find it quite distinctive enough and will dislike the fact that so many essential features lie buried in screen menus.
Whatever your perspective, you'd have to admit that MG is offering you a lot of car for the money here, in the process throwing down a significant challenge to market leaders Tesla. If you're considering that American maker's popular Model 3, the IM5 is a must-try alternative. It's not quite right first time. But as a first-time luxury product for this Chinese brand, it's mighty impressive nonetheless.
