Nothing like the old MG3! | 2024 MG3 Hybrid Review

MG have just dropped the new MG3. It's not just a new shape, but it's a completely redesigned MG3 that will make you completely forget the shortcomings of the previous model. Let's see what features you get and how it drives...

[@Bob-v8b3i]

I cannot believe how much you hated the old MG3, you sound just like someone who never owned one……..I have owned an MG3 Excite for 5 years, and am very happy with it……..You just have to know how to drive it !!…….It is a different car when you keep it above 3000 revs, and use the Sports Shift………and I have done many long Interstate trips.

They really needed to increase prices. Should have come through a long time ago. Finally allows them to build a better car for 2024.

Talk slower for goodness sake, it’s not a race.

[@hasan_z]

You can slow it down from RUclips controls. Although his speed is fine for me

[@Desilv]

i can't choose between this or the 208 allure from peugeot... pff

[@CarlosCasero82]

Thanks a lot for this complete review. Waiting for the motorway review you promised!

[@ProductReviewCars]

Noted! Thanks for watching :)

Looks like a great small car presented in an interesting and thorough review, a good basic small runaround that seems to be well designed. Nice design which shows how far Chinese manufacturers are moving to quality and durability. A bit of a quandary in considering the hybrid vs the pure petrol model, albeit the hybrid likely provides more pleasure in driving dynamics. I dislike USB-A in modern cars and thinks USB-C should be the norm. No telescopic adjustment on the steering isn’t great. The screens look fine, interior design seems good, albeit less than perfect. The driver’s seat wouldn’t suit me with a bump at base of the spine though. Okay but not great to drive, maybe better tyres would improve that, but comfy which is pretty good for a cheaper car. Noisy revving which isn’t great, so not too powerful., so perhaps more of a city runabout. Seems adequate in every way, a really comprehensive well paced and informative review. A road trip review would be interesting. I’m no great fan of hybrids, but they have their place. Thanks for a great review!

Really enjoyable video, good looking car, I'm staggered by the in screen climate etc. buttons, when will this trend die? Loved the video 😊

Thanks for the review. As the best selling light car in Australia, it is important to have it thoroughly reviewed. (You finished a bit abruptly... mid-sentence?!)
The inconsistent power delivery could be hazardous. Sometimes the car has 144kW... sometimes it has 70. Who knows what you will get to overtake on the highway? It probably depends on the state of charge of the battery. With a 110kW electric motor, and 1.8kWh battery, you have ~1 minute for maximum power.
At 9:30 you showed the tyre pressures .. which seemed to be very high and a bit inconsistent. Is that recommended? (45/44/43/42 psi). I'd expect around 36 psi on a car this size with 1 person in it.
Anyhow, the base car now costs around the same as a Mazda 2, Suzuki Swit and Toyota Yaris (and is more than a Picanto).... so it would be great to see a comparison.

[@gregb1599]

As usual, they make a car that you have to wait until the facelift for it to fix the flaws. That fixed rear seat is inexcusable in this modern age!

[@ProductReviewCars]

Looks like the end got chopped! Nothing to add more than what was mentioned in the vid.

[@sebring099]

Nice car and great review, just too expensive,prices should be drive away not plus on roads costs.

[@MattyClivingthedream]

They aren't going to be selling many of these at $25k driveaway. All of the previous 15000 sales are going to be transferred to the MG ZS at $22,900 drive away.

[@bencarter9739]

The ZS get a face lift soon and will also get more expensive.

[@ProductReviewCars]

Defs trying to justify a more expensive price here. I also hate price increases, but it's easy to see how they can justify it.

[@MattyClivingthedream]

@ProductReviewCars The new MG3 has a lot more equipment and is a better product than the old unit. But I think that most buyers will be tempted to keep a couple thousand $ in their account, and get more metal for the money by purchasing the ZS.

Love your enthusiasm. You remind me of a young, Aussie Scotty Kilmer.

You sound just like someone with VERY LITTLE Driving Experience………I have been driving long before you were born, and I think I have forgotten more about cars, than you will ever know.

It removes the nasty 4 speed transmission for an even nastier 3 speed transmission in the hybrid spec.

[@t8polestarcyan22]

True but the electric motor will more than make up for it.
