Hyundai and MG: A New Autumn Lineup – What to Expect with the IM5 & IM6

Let’s dive into what you can expect from the new MG IM5 and IM6, alongside the refreshed Hyundai KONA and TUCSON – a quartet that’s going to shake things up.

As the leaves change and the autumn breeze blows in, so do the new cars. Hyundai and MG are stepping up and this season has some big hitters in the compact SUV and electric segments. Let’s dive into what you can expect from the new MG IM5 and IM6, alongside the refreshed Hyundai KONA and TUCSON – a quartet that’s going to shake things up.

Hyundai – KONA & TUCSON: Refined and Ready

Hyundai is building on its value and practicality credentials with the updated KONA and TUCSON. Both have some great features and driver assistance features. The KONA’s 1.0T engine is sporty, and the TUCSON provides up to 160bhp whilst remaining refined and spacious. Key updates across both include driver-assistance systems (Lane Keep Assist and Intelligent Speed Limit Assist) and connectivity (Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto).

Hyundai KONA: Driving Dynamics & Smart Tech

The KONA is still great to drive with petrol, hybrid and fully electric options available. The KONA is one of our most popular family SUVs and the ‘75 plate is expected to continue that trend. The KONA’s strength is its adaptability – from the rear seat alert so you don’t leave anyone behind to the advanced parking system with rear camera and guidance to make parking in tight spaces a doddle.

Hyundai TUCSON: Comfort and Capability

The TUCSON has always been about comfort and capability – a new ’75 plate TUCSON will provide the latest software updates and convenience features such as Intelligent Speed Limit Assist, Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as well as Over the air updates. (OTA)

MG – IM5 & IM6: Electric Revolution

Now let’s get to the electric future with the MG IM5 and IM6. These are going to disrupt the market with performance, range and value.

MG IM5: Compact Electric Excellence

The IM5 is MG’s answer to the demand for a smaller, more refined electric saloon. With a 17-minute charge time from 10-80% using a DC rapid charger and 0-62 mph in 3.2 seconds, the IM5 is a genuinely fast electric car. Its 441 mile WLTP range shows MG is serious about long distance travel. The IM5 will certainly be one to watch in the electric car market.

MG IM6: Premium Electric Performance

The IM6 goes up a level with a more premium feel and more performance. The IM6 has a top speed of up to 149 MPH, 0-62 mph in 3.5 seconds and 338 mile WLTP range. This one will have a higher price tag but should be a strong player in the market.
