-with Record-Breaking Range

 Drivers across the Middle East now have more choice than ever when it
comes to efficient, practical, and connected mobility, as MG Motor introduces two new hybrid
models in the space of just one month: the MG 8 Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) and the
MG HS Hybrid+. Designed to deliver the best of both worlds — electric efficiency with petrol-
powered freedom — these new models give customers greater flexibility, lower running costs,
and the confidence to drive smarter every day.
Each model brings a distinct personality to the road. The MG 8 PHEV is a refined plug-in hybrid
sedan that combines long-distance capability with electric efficiency, achieving a record-rated
combined range of up to 1,655 km and 125 km of pure electric driving. Meanwhile, the MG HS
Hybrid+ pairs a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine with an electric motor to deliver 221 hp and a
combined range of up to 1,287 km. With its confident stance, premium cabin, and smooth,
responsive powertrain, it’s equally at home on city streets or weekend adventures — all while
holding a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for uncompromised protection.
Both models showcase MG’s signature blend of design and intelligence. Their refined interiors,
intuitive infotainment systems, and advanced climate control — developed specifically for Gulf
conditions — elevate every journey, while wireless smartphone integration keeps drivers
seamlessly connected on the move. Underneath, MG’s parent company, SAIC Motor, powers
these vehicles with cutting-edge hybrid systems that automatically manage energy flow and
regenerative braking, ensuring smooth acceleration, adaptive energy recovery, and exceptional
efficiency in every mode.
Driven by the same DMH Super Hybrid Technology that underpins the brand’s global shift
toward smarter electrified mobility. Both models feature advanced driver-assistance systems,
from adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist to blind-spot monitoring and 360° cameras,
ensuring total confidence behind the wheel. Their thermal management and battery systems
have been rigorously tested for the region’s high temperatures, while MG’s extensive warranty
coverage and regional aftersales network provide lasting peace of mind.
To celebrate their arrival, MG staged two unique experiences. The MG 8 PHEV completed a
landmark drive from Riyadh Boulevard to Dubai Boulevard, covering over 1,500 km to
demonstrate its efficiency and comfort. Meanwhile, the MG HS Hybrid+ was showcased through
a content-led journey from Paris to Normandy, capturing its blend of design, innovation, and

Prices may vary depending on market
hybrid performance. With these launches, MG now offers hybrid, electric, and petrol-powered
models across its expanding line-up — marking a new era for the brand and for a region
embracing a smarter, cleaner, and more connected way to drive.
