I own an Emgrand premium. Both cars are great and I'm just glad both cars are now in the Philippine market. Apart from issues with parts and aftersales, I think both cars are waaaay better than the more recognized japanese brands.
yun lang naman talaga issues e noh, parts and sometimes aftersales ng ibang dealership. but yeah bang for the buck sila. Sana talaga dumating na ang time na it won't be an issue para talagang ma challenge ang mga jap brands satin. In the end ang winner will always be the consumers.
MG5 owner here for 1yr 3months and yes, this car is quite powerful at maeenjoy mo sya pag nasa highway kana. Also, comfortable din ang ride nya due to 55R 16 tires
Hello there You forgot to mention that the mg5 alpha has an option to choose 3 types of driving power steering, urban normal and dynamic. Let’s say dynamic is like squeezing a pandesal while normal is like squeezing a siopao and dynamic is like squeezing a cake. Also, it has an option where you can switch to eco driving mode to save gas.
True! I just got my MG5 Style variant. The steering options are incredible. City: Urban option for more easier turn of the steering wheel. Highway: Dynamic for more firm and stable feel when in high speed driving.
Love the content. But I think the price category should be last as viewers will be able to measure the value more objectively after everything else has been said and done. Giving 5pts just because it's cheaper doesn't seem fair.
Geely Emgrand's looks is very stunning. However, the price of the Emgrand is now higher than the MG5 Alpha based on the recent update from Geely. It should decrease the point of Emgrand in this video(which I guess taken before the increase). I chose MG5 because it also looks luxurious too, but with much more power and more tech. Imagine driving a luxurious looking car without Apple Carplay and Android Auto, 360° camera, tapos bitin pa sa power. 🤷♂️ Even my Core MT(lowest variant) has an Apple Carplay and Android Auto. Also, mine's a manual(MT) so it's more engaging to drive and a practical choice when it comes to wear and tear concerns.
True! I am comparing these two cars right now and I am very intrigued with the Emgrand but upon checking their price points, Emgrand is now more expensive than the MG5. I already made a test drive of the MG5 Alpha and it feels great! You do really get more out of the MG5 with respect to its price than the Emgrand. I will be getting my first car the MG5 Alpha 2022 next week and I'm truly excited for my journey with this car.
@@ferdiluxe I agree. I considered the Emgrand as well but the absence of Carplay and Adroid Auto really pushed me back. With my MG5, I can charge my my phone while using the Maps and YT in Android Auto while on long drives. Have you got your MG5 already?
We own an Emgrand, I agree with this review especially about the infotainment & engine performance. Still, I would like to highlight its main advantage over all of its competitors, it's interior and comfort which gives you a feel of a Europian Car. In the end, we better judge a car after riding it and don't just rely on reviews, ride all the cars on your list before getting one so you don't have to regret your decision.
Awesome and reasonable comparo, thanks for sharing your comparo between the 2 brand competitors whose aiming to dethrone the Toyota Vios, best of luck to these 2 brands 🤔👍
Well balanced review Reygan. Emgrand looks classier and upscale and practical..but performance is & tech is MG5.. it's now gonna be parts availability and reliability
MG5 wins overall for me. -3 modes of driving(Eco, Drive, Sport) -3 STEERING WHEEL AGILITY CONTROLS(Urban, Normal, Dynamic) -APPLE CARPLAY and ANDROID AUTO -360° CAMERA -POWERFUL ENGINE(2ND AFTER CITY) -Manufactured in China by the BIGGEST MANUFACTURER which is SAIC(which by the way the manufacturer of Audi, VW, etc), but it's still a british brand and MG is known and sold in Europe unlike Geely.

Thank you for your nice video presentations concerning new model vehicles as well as comparo match ups Just a thought from "little old me" but from my aspect of living and living and mostly driving south of Cebu City on still an only 2 lane highway with an overloaded plethora of all kinds and sizes of vehicles from 2 to 4 wheels..foot pedaling..or triceka motorized 3 wheelers virtually all move very slowly or instead driving like they are an ambulance to get to "nowhere really important".. It makes it really hard to get very good fuel economy.. I realize perhaps there are more areas to enjoy "cruising in style" do to much less congestion in outer metro Manilla or out lying suburban roads where you live Thus for me and others who follow your channel: When it comes to horsepower output..."they aren't that far apart really"...and many many other motorized vehicles are much faster.. But with gasoline so expensive now...however they are slowly coming down...true..but still very high.. Fuel economy is of greater value to me..since you cannot ever count on "getting to your final destination quickly" LOL I would be curious if you can share "real world" fuel economy numbers for "in town traffic" and "out on the road" numbers..so ones also curious to know what they might expect to see...before they finally choose to select and purchase one over the over Two me: At the top of my list of important criteria before purchasing a new vehicle are: *Outside looks...Emgrand wins * Inside the cabin looks/how much room space to stretch out..materials & comfort features..Emgrand wins *Fuel economy numbers...the final consideration...not the time to drive stoplight to stop light..uncertain at this point..and mere minutiae BUT ultimately I think Geely put together a "heck of a car" for such a low price! Just gotta convince the filipina wife to buy it over a small to medium size SUV!! That is my "mountain to ultimately climb"! Again @Reygan'Rides TU for "the journey" today
wow laki ng tinaas. when we got it 905k with 50k discount pa. Get it while in that price. all are eying in this and asking if 1.5m or 2.1million siguro yan. Parang promotion price lang ito.
Nice comparo. MG5 got that tough look, while Geely weirdly reminds me of 90s or early 2000 sedans from Nissan. Btw shouldn't have used this clip at 2:43 or stopped before the kuya walking at the back. It's like subtly saying "MG5 is trash". 🤣 Jokes aside, still an awesome work on the comparo. Kudos.
Although they have good price new brands tend to not last long in Philippine market leaving you with a paper weight waiting for it breaking down without parts. I know that because i also own a chinese car so for my money i would rather go for the vios for the same money.
Thats why one of the reason the war must flourish because Chinese car will dominate the industry very far todays what they offer. Come to think of it its been long time that toyota dominates philippines but everyyear they release a car 2-4 features added and same b(*&*(#$ at a highcost. Regarding the parts the counterparts of all brand nowadays has the same problem 7-12 month didt arrive as per the Geely theyll had 6months promise to their customers
but still it is a chinese car but good review, when it comes to tech, space, cabin, power, driving, and the most important engine and tech reliability I'll go for japanese cars because nothing can go wrong with japanese cars, specially honda =)
Pareho silang china, pero the MG 5 was a British Car and only assembly in china, I'd rather be prepared for MG because it's price and it was also well known in the Philippines, and for info if you buy china made car you support china soldiers,.

Good day sir! How about Raize G AT vs Stonic EX AT? What would you choose? Love your channel btw!
3 yrs owner of mg5 sobrang ganda gamitin walang sakit ng ulo
I prefer the looks of MG5 over Emgrand.
But still, looks is a personal choice. 😊
The comparo i have been looking and waiting ❤️
Btw, hoping for another Chinese sedan comparo w the GAC GA4 and the Changan Alsvin 👍👍👍

di lang ako nakapasok sa kubol ng MG.... sa toyota yung mga bago 2022 problemado din sa parts. aabutin din 7months....
Geely Emgrand Wins for me.
-3 Modes of Driving (Eco,Comfort, Sport) (No Delay unlike MG5)
- Key Start Engine (Best on outside mall parking with direct sunlight)
- Aircon Vent in 2nd Row (More Air-conditioning)
-Automatic Trunk Open
- Futuristic Rear Taillamps on Premium Variant
- VOLVO TECHNOLOGY
MG5 also have 3 driving modes. The 5 Alpha have 2nd row aircon too. However the truck still needs to be open manually.
MG5 wins overall for me.
-3 modes of driving(Eco, Drive, Sport)
-3 STEERING WHEEL AGILITY CONTROLS(Urban, Normal, Dynamic)
-APPLE CARPLAY and ANDROID AUTO
-360° CAMERA
-POWERFUL ENGINE(2ND AFTER CITY)
-Manufactured in China by the BIGGEST MANUFACTURER which is SAIC(which by the way the manufacturer of Audi, VW, etc), but it's still a british brand and MG is known and sold in Europe unlike Geely.
HINDI PURO AESTHETICS LANG, BUSOG DIN SA FUNCTIONALITIES
I own a coolray, but I have to give this to the MG 5 Alpha.
Emgrand’s Blue and White Interior reminds me those of the vintage cars in the US like the Cadillacs, Buicks, Lincolns, and Chevies.
Yes!!! For so long long time! Thank you for creating this content!
The Comparo I've been waiting for! 😍
Thank you Sir Rey 😀👍👍👍
The Chinese rivalry continues...
MG5 wins overall for me.

Sir i hope you review all the variants of 2023 ford everest and discuss their differences of other variants
I agree, apple carplay and android auto is a big plus. If only the emgrand premium has the carplay and android auto 😢
Even the lowest variant of MG5 which is the Core MT priced at 658,888 has an Apple Carplay/Android Auto Feature. So, meh for Emgrand.
Geely emgrand premium is now 1,054000 here in Palawan.

subok na yan sa endurance race kaya tingin ko wala na problema sa reliability. Parts availability nalang siguro ang kelangan natin makita.
