MG IM5. The Almost Perfect EV?

I've been driving electric cars for over 10 years and have owned multiple MGs, including the MG5 and MG4. After spending a week and covering almost 650 miles in the new MG IM5 Long Range, here's my honest owner-focused review. The MG IM5 is a huge step forward for MG, offering premium build quality, impressive efficiency, advanced technology, excellent comfort and a surprisingly refined driving experience. But is it really the almost perfect EV? In this video I cover: ✅ Real-world efficiency and range ✅ Long Range vs Performance models ✅ 402hp performance and driving impressions ✅ 400kW ultra-fast charging ✅ Home charging costs (only around £8 on Octopus Go!) ✅ Gemini AI voice assistant ✅ 20-speaker audio system ✅ Wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay ✅ Self-parking technology ✅ Advanced driver assistance features ✅ 9.8m turning circle ✅ Practicality and boot space test ✅ Family friendliness and rear passenger space ✅ Night driving and LED headlights ✅ Ambient lighting impressions Despite the generous 457-litre boot, I couldn't fit my full-size adult bike inside, which was a surprise considering my smaller MG4 can manage it. I also discuss some of my criticisms including the screen reflections, limited regenerative braking settings, lack of glovebox storage and the missing automatic high-beam assist. Overall, the MG IM5 feels far more premium than any MG I've driven before and shows just how far the brand has come. 💡 Save £50 on your energy bill with Octopus Energy: https://share.octopus.energy/bold-panda-819 What do you think of the MG IM5?
