MG Motor Philippines Launches the New MG S5 EV, Kicks Off the Multiply Greatness Tour 2026

MG Motor Philippines has officially launched the Multiply Greatness Tour 2026 at the Trinoma Activity Center on August 27, 2026. The nationwide roadshow brings the brand’s expanding electrified lineup closer to Filipino motorists, giving customers more chances to see, experience, and drive the latest models firsthand.

The tour is the newest expression of MG’s Multiply Greatness campaign—a celebration of how great design, technology, performance, and experiences can come together to create something even greater. For MG, the campaign is about opening up more possibilities for customers: more mobility choices, more technology to experience, and more opportunities to enjoy every journey.

At the center of this next chapter—and making its formal Philippine debut—is the MG S5 EV, an all-electric compact SUV designed to make every drive more engaging, convenient, and connected. Combining sporty rear-wheel-drive performance with practical SUV versatility, intelligent technology, and efficient electric power, the new MG S5 EV brings the promise of “Your Daily Drives, Fully-Charged” to life.

The S5 EV produces 125 kW, or 170 PS, of peak power and 250 Nm of torque from its Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor. Unlike many compact electric SUVs, it sends power to the rear wheels. That gives the S5 EV a more engaging driving character without sacrificing the practicality required for daily commutes, errands, family trips, and weekend getaways. Drivers can choose from Normal, Sport, Comfort, Snow, and Custom drive modes, allowing the SUV to adapt to different driving conditions and personal preferences.

A 49 kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate battery supplies the vehicle’s energy and supports up to 120 kW of DC fast charging. Under suitable conditions, it can charge from 10% to 90% in approximately 24 minutes. AC charging is supported at up to 7 kW. The S5 EV also offers a 415-kilometer NEDC range, giving drivers the flexibility to manage everyday travel as well as longer journeys with confidence.

Electric ownership is made more convenient with features such as scheduled charging, battery thermal optimization, and regenerative braking with Low, Medium, Strong, and Adaptive settings. One-Pedal Drive is also included, as well as Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) capability which allows the S5 EV to supply power to compatible external devices when needed, adding another layer of versatility.

The S5 EV isn’t defined solely by what sits beneath its floor. Measuring 4,476 mm long, 1,849 mm wide, and 1,621 mm high, with a 2,730 mm wheelbase, it has the compact SUV proportions needed for both city driving and weekend escapes. Inside, cargo capacity stands at 453 liters. Fold the rear seats and include the underfloor storage, and that figure expands to 1,441 liters—enough flexibility for everyday essentials, shopping, and luggage for longer trips.

Its modern exterior reinforces its electric character with a range of sporty details. These include 17-inch alloy wheels with aero fins, projector LED headlights, Racing Flag-design LED daytime running lights and taillights, gloss black door mirrors, and a rear spoiler. Load-bearing roof rails, capable of supporting up to 75 kilograms, add further practicality for active lifestyles.

Inside the cabin, technology remains within easy reach. A 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster is paired with a 12.8-inch touchscreen display, while wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto provide seamless smartphone connectivity. Automatic climate control, Smart Entry, an electronic parking brake with Auto Brake Hold, multiple USB ports, 60:40 split-folding rear seats, and a PM2.5 cabin filter add convenience for both driver and passengers.

For Filipino motorists considering the move to electric mobility, confidence matters just as much as convenience. That’s why the MG S5 EV comes equipped with an extensive suite of MG Pilot advanced driver assistance technologies. The system includes Front Collision Warning, Autonomous Emergency Braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keeping Assist, Emergency Lane Keeping Assist, Blind Spot Detection, Lane Change Assist, Door Opening Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Braking, Rear Collision Warning, Adaptive Cruise Control, Traffic Jam Assist, Intelligent Headlight Control, Intelligent Speed Assistance, and a Driver Monitoring System.

Seven airbags, ABS, Electronic Brake-Force Distribution, Brake Assist, Electronic Stability Program, Traction Control, Hill Start Assist, Hill Descent Control, a Tire Pressure Monitoring System, rear parking sensors, and a rear-view camera with dynamic guidelines further support a confident driving experience. The MG S5 EV has also earned 5-star safety ratings from both EURO NCAP and ANCAP.

The S5 EV arrives as MG Motor Philippines continues to expand its New Energy Vehicle portfolio. Hybrid+, Plug-in Hybrid, and Battery Electric Vehicles now play an increasingly important role in the lineup, giving Filipino motorists more freedom to choose the technology that best fits their lifestyle. That could mean making the full transition to electric mobility—or opting for the flexibility of hybrid or plug-in hybrid driving.

The all-new MG S5 EV is available in Desert Sand Beige, Andes Gray, Cosmic Silver, and Dover White.

The all-new MG S5 EV not available at the special introductory price of P1,408,888 from its suggested retail price of P1,448,888. As an added bonus, customers who reserve an MG S5 EV during the Multiply Greatness Tour can receive an additional P10,000 discount by paying a minimum reservation fee of Php 1,000 during the event. This offer applies on top of introductory promotions and is also available for selected New Energy models, including the MG S5 EV, MG4 Urban EV, MG RX9 PHEV, and MG HS PHEV.

With the applicable offers, customers can purchase the MG S5 EV for as low as P1,398,888 this weekend. The package also includes a 7-kW wall charger and a 3.3-kW portable charger worth P30,000.

The Multiply Greatness Tour 2026 is set to travel to Pampanga, Laguna, and Cebu, bringing MG’s Next Wave closer to its customers. Visitors can explore a broad display of MG’s latest models, including the MG Cyberster, MG S5 EV, MG4 Urban EV, MG G50 PHEV, MG RX9 PHEV, MG HS PHEV, MG3 Hybrid+, and MG ZS Hybrid+. Those who want to go beyond the display can also test drive  the MG4 Urban EV, MG RX9 PHEV, MG HS PHEV, MG G50 PHEV, and MG S5 EV.
