The 2025 MG3 Essence petrol variant offers a compelling blend of affordability, practicality, and modern features, making it a strong contender in the light car segment.
Under the hood, the MG3 Essence is powered by a 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine delivering 81kW of power and 142Nm of torque. Paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and front-wheel drive, it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in approximately 12.4 seconds. While not a performance powerhouse, it offers adequate power for city and suburban driving.
Fuel efficiency is a highlight, with an official consumption figure of 6.0L/100km. Real-world testing indicates a slightly higher consumption of around 7.3L/100km, which is still competitive in its class.
'' Practicality & Features
The MG3 Essence boasts a spacious boot with a capacity of 293 litres, expanding to 983 litres with the rear seats folded down. It includes thoughtful touches like a light and shopping bag hook to keep items secure. Notably, the petrol model comes equipped with a space-saver spare wheel, whereas the Hybrid+ variant substitutes this with a tyre repair kit due to battery placement.
Inside, the cabin features a user-friendly layout with a dial-type gear selector and drive modes. While the finishes are predominantly hard plastics, the design is functional, and storage solutions are ample, including cupholders and a centre armrest. However, some reviewers note that the absence of rubberised finishes may lead to items shifting during transit.
''' Safety & Warranty
The MG3 Essence holds a 3-star ANCAP safety rating, which is modest compared to some competitors. However, it offers a comprehensive suite of safety features, including adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and automatic emergency braking.
A standout aspect is MG's generous warranty offering: a 10-year or 250,000 km coverage, providing long-term peace of mind for buyers
