MG Philippines continues to deliver on its brand promise – “Expect Extraordinary” – with the release of impressive fuel economy figures as officially attested by the Automobile Association of the Philippines (AAP).
Following strict parameters monitored in-car by the AAP, the fuel economy run mimicked real-world driving conditions which included normal usage of air-conditioning, keeping within regulated road speed limits, and with tires pumped to factory-recommended pressure. Also, being conducted on public roads, all traffic laws and regulations were strictly followed, where no extreme “hypermiling” driving techniques such as drafting or slipstreaming were employed to improve the results.
The following were the official results of the testing done on July 18, 2022:

Among the fielded vehicles by MG Philippines, the MG 5 Alpha variant sedan recorded the highest fuel efficiency rating at 20.20 km/l. The MG 5 is the brand’s subcompact sedan segment which is recognized for its great value for money, tech and safety features, cabin comfort and NVH, cargo space, and styling. Fuel efficiency can now be added to the MG 5’s long list of product wins, making it a top option in one of the most competitive automobile segments in the country.
“Our effort to formalize and document the fuel economy figures of our MG vehicles aims to strengthen the already high, inherent value for money offered by our numerous product offerings here at MG Philippines,” says Atty. Alberto B. Arcilla, President and CEO of MG Philippines. “Our MG cars and SUVs feature top-notch tech and safety features, space, comfort, and easy drivability, and are given support by innovative aftersales services from our dealership network, of which we have 42 dealers nationwide. We at MG Philippines are proud to offer vehicles that can be considered ‘responsible purchases’ because of their high value for money proposition; and now, with their impressive fuel efficiency ratings confirmed by the AAP, we can add yet another aspect that makes a responsible purchase out of these modern, global MG cars and SUVs.”
