Just a few weeks ago, Our colleagues at Motor1.com Spain presented the prices and equipment for the MG HS 2024. With this restyling, the Chinese SUV has become more attractive, but maintains its main asset: a very interesting price-product ratio.

At the front, the new MG eHS 2025 also sports Roewe's slanted headlamps and bonnet design, but gets a specific grille and bumper. In profile, the sculpted lines, pronounced shoulders and muscular wheel arches are retained. The 'C' pillar detailing is also present, although it receives specific wheels and traditional door handles (as opposed to the RX5's folding ones).

At the rear, the new MG eHS 2025 is almost identical in design to the Roewe RX5 (4.65 metres long). Note the lights connected by a luminous strip, the prominent spoiler and a diffuser in the lower area.
