    MG5 review after covering 120,000 miles.

    MG5 complete failure after wet road

    Had to go though a fairly deep and unexpected flood last autumn in our MG5 Face Lift. Was worried but had no issues. 12V battery issues seem to be common on a lot of EV's wonder if it was just a weird coincidence.
