DESCRIPTION

**BALANCE OF SERVICE PLAN 90 000 KMS / 5 YEARS** **BALANCE OF WARRANTY 200 000 KMS / 5 YEARS** The HS is positioned above the pocket-friendly ZS compact crossover/SUV, which we also sampled at SAIC Volkswagen’s proving grounds in Zhengzhou, China. MG’s entry into the local midsize SUV segment, the HS is aimed towards families seeking a striking SUV equipped with oodles of convenience and safety features, and a sufficient amount of space. Exclusively driving the front axle, the HS is available with the choice of two turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engines — 1.5-litre and 2.0-litre units equipped with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox and a nine-speed automatic cog swapper, respectively. The 1.5-litre powertrain, which was sited below the bonnet of the model we sampled, produces 125 kW and 275 N.m of torque, while the 2.0-litre four-pot churns out a healthier 170 kW and 370 N.m. MG claims an average fuel consumption figure of 6.9 and 7.3 L/100 km for the former and latter, respectively.
