Your Definitive guide to the new MGS6 Electric Car Lease

The new MGS6 Electric Car Lease - Your Definitive guide

As we move through January 2026, car manufacturers are bringing more and more new products to the UK’s leasing market. Already we have reported on the launch of the Mercedes GLB and GLC electric SUVs, Toyota C-HR+ and Urban Cruiser plus the new Alpine A390.

Now another new medium SUV option is coming, as the Chinese MG Motors group launch another product into the electric car market for 2026 - the MGS6. While the timing seems to be right, with our zero-emission market having enjoyed an incredibly busy year in 2025, there are others in the car industry who believe that caution should be exercised with this proposition

When you look at the BEV statistics for 2025 from the  SMMT  there are some positive aspects to take-away. Some 473,348 vehicles were registered and this represented a 23.9% increase on the previous year. With a 23.43% share of the UK’s car market, the vehicle registrations are not too far off the Zero Emission Vehicle Mandate target of 28% for 2025.

Considering the impactive, and to some degree disruptive year which we encountered, the end results represent a positive step in the right direction for the UK. However, with an increase to 33% for 2026, there are some concerns about the ability of car manufacturers to meet these obligations.

As reported in The Telegraph   the chief of Stellantis, Emanuele Cappellano, expressed real concerns about the future of EVs. Indeed, he claimed that there was no natural demand for the products and that much of the demand arises from subsidies and discounts.

The boss has warned that the pressures on the group - which includes Citroen, Fiat, Peugeot and Vauxhall - are creating issues for profitability and sustainability. With the ZEV Mandate now subject to perusal by the Labour Government, the Stellantis executive has suggested that more hybrid options have been sold in Europe, where rules on electrification have been relaxed.

Indeed, he strongly suggests that the push toward zero-emission is creating a conundrum where a brand either incurs a fine or loses money on selling a zero-emission product. With Porsche suggesting a slower sales performance, due to EVs, there seems to be a tad of concern about the longevity and practicality of a fine-based Mandate.

But is this wholly true? As the Telegraph reports, there are strong buy signals for electric vehicles and this is becoming a reality due to aspects outside of price alone. Improving batteries (and economies of scale), expanding choice, vehicle quality improvements and a better charging network is making personal and business customers make the transition.

Supported by an electric car grant scheme, the political powers believe that there are enough customers AND brand supporting measures to make this a successful proposition.

However, Stellantis do have to take some ownership for their flaws, as well as their successes. Where some manufacturers struggle is that they do not wholly connect to what electric car customers want - 250/275 mile+ real world range, 11/22kW AC and 150kW DC+ charging capability, support and intuitive technology - and instead create novel concepts or try to adapt battery tech for combustion vehicle platforms.

Some brands have tapped into this more acutely than the Stellantis group and are enjoying a growing following and success like BYD, Cupra and Skoda. There is very real data to suggest that the everyday person in the UK is able, and willing to go electric. But will this be 80% by 2030? That still remains a big question.

Introducing the new MGS6 Electric Car Lease

The MG Motor Group, which is owned and operated by the Chinese SAIC Motor Group, is very much an organisation dedicated to all-electric and hybrid options.

Continued support and investment into battery vehicles is overwhelmingly palpable with this group and with an array of vehicles including the Cyberster, MG4, MGS5, IM5 and IM6, nearly every segment and demographic is covered! In addition,  another option is coming into the market for 2026 with the MGS6 now available to build and order via the MG website.

“Smart serenity awaits” the new mid-sized family SUV is seeking to offer a proposition where technology and calm mix to produce an intelligent and responsive product. With highlights like the heated and ventilated seats, leather and suede style seats, panoramic roof, an impressive 674 litres of boot storage, 124 litres of smart front storage and a host of thoughtful storage solutions throughout the car, practicality is high on the agenda.

Smart power and engineering remains at the heart of the MGS6 with the Modular Scalable Platform (MSP), promising efficient range, capable charging times and responsive driving. The efficient motors on both the rear and front wheels allow for an all-wheel drive and some five driving modes, including normal, sport, eco, snow or custom.  

For any customer who is familiar with the IM5 and IM6, which MG launched back in 2025, the new MGS6 is reminiscent of the technology and comprehensive equipment which makes this a more upmarket and prestigious vehicle.
