MG HS Business & Personal Car Leasing Offers

MG launched the HS in the UK in 2019, and the second-generation model marked a clear step up when it arrived in 2024. It debuted at the Goodwood Festival of Speed featuring sharper styling, slim full-LED headlights, and a more upmarket cabin centred on twin 12.3-inch screens. The HS has since become one of the UK’s best-selling cars, finishing 2025 in eighth place with more than 30,000 registrations. The plug-in hybrid was also named What Car’s Plug-in Hybrid of the Year in both 2025 and 2026.

MG has continued to develop the HS since its relaunch. The plug-in hybrid’s 24.7kWh battery more than doubled its electric range compared with the previous generation, to up to 75 miles (WLTP). The self-charging Hybrid+ joined the line-up in 2025. The latest update, announced in September 2026, brings heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, wireless phone charging, and a 360-degree camera to SE models. Trophy now adds ventilated front seats, an opening panoramic sunroof, and leather and suede-style upholstery. Two new paint finishes, Camden Grey and Cosmic Silver, also join the colour range.

For business customers, the HS Plug-in Hybrid’s 75-mile WLTP electric range covers most commutes on battery power. Its 12g/km CO2 figure places it in the 7% Benefit-in-Kind band for 2026/27. The Hybrid+ returns up to 51.3mpg without needing to plug in, which suits drivers who can’t charge at home or at work. Personal customers get a five-seat family SUV with a 507-litre boot, two rear ISOFIX points, and MG’s seven-year/80,000-mile warranty. The Hybrid+ can also tow a braked trailer of up to 1,500kg, making it a practical choice for drivers with caravans or trailers.

Key Specifications

MG HS trims include the following, and both are available with petrol, Hybrid+, and plug-in hybrid power:

- SE: The entry-level trim comes with 19-inch diamond-cut “Blade” alloy wheels, full-LED headlights, and a 360-degree camera. Inside, twin 12.3-inch screens run satellite navigation, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. Following MG’s latest update, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and wireless phone charging are also standard.

- Trophy: Adds an opening panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, and black leather and suede-style upholstery. Dual-zone climate control, a powered tailgate, and an eight-speaker audio system.

Metallic paint finishes are available as cost options, including the new Camden Grey and Cosmic Silver introduced in MG’s latest update. Trophy can also be specified with a red leather and suede-style interior in place of the standard black. On the petrol model, choosing the seven-speed DCT automatic over the six-speed manual adds adaptive cruise control and traffic jam assist. Availability can vary by trim and current manufacturer ordering options.

Engine & Performance

Every MG HS uses a turbocharged 1.5-litre petrol engine, either on its own or paired with Hybrid+ or plug-in hybrid technology.

The petrol HS produces 169bhp and 275Nm of torque. Opting for the six-speed manual gives a 0-62mph time of 9.4 seconds and up to 38.2mpg. The seven-speed DCT automatic takes 9.6 seconds and returns up to 37.2mpg. For drivers who can’t charge at home, Hybrid+ adds an electric motor and a 1.8kWh battery that recharges on the move. Combined output rises to 225bhp for a 0-62mph time of 7.9 seconds, alongside up to 51.3mpg and CO2 emissions of 126g/km. Braked towing capacity is up to 1,500kg.

Quickest of the range is the plug-in hybrid, which uses a 24.7kWh battery to deliver 299bhp, 350Nm, and a 0-62mph time of 6.8 seconds. A full charge provides up to 75 miles of WLTP electric range, and CO2 emissions are 12g/km. Charging from empty takes around four hours on a 7kW home wallbox.

Exterior Features

The MG HS has a wide front grille and slim full-LED headlights, and every model sits on 19-inch diamond-cut “Blade” alloy wheels. LED daytime running lights, LED rear lights, front fog lights, and silver roof rails rated to 75kg are fitted across the range. Following MG’s latest update, every HS also gets electrically folding heated door mirrors with memory, which tilt down automatically when reversing. Plug-in hybrid models add side steps.

Metallic paint finishes are available at extra cost, including the new Camden Grey and Cosmic Silver. Availability can vary by trim and current manufacturer ordering options.

Interior Features

Inside, the MG HS uses a clean dashboard layout built around two 12.3-inch screens, one for the driver display and one for infotainment. Following MG’s latest update, every HS comes with heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and wireless phone charging. SE models are trimmed in black cloth. The 60:40 split-folding rear bench extends the 507-litre boot to 1,484 litres.

Trophy adds black leather and suede-style upholstery, ventilated front seats, dual-zone climate control, and an opening panoramic sunroof. Both front seats are electrically adjustable, and the driver’s seat gains lumbar adjustment, memory, and an easy-access function. A red leather and suede-style interior is available on Trophy at extra cost.

Safety Features

A five-star Euro NCAP rating, awarded in 2024, underlines the MG HS’s safety credentials. Every model comes with the MG Pilot driver assistance suite. It includes active emergency braking with pedestrian and bicycle detection, lane keep assist, and forward collision warning, along with blind spot detection with lane change assist. Rear cross traffic alert, door open warning, and driver attention alert are also standard, alongside a front centre airbag.

Automatic petrol, Hybrid+, and plug-in hybrid versions add adaptive cruise control and traffic jam assist, which maintain speed and distance from traffic ahead in suitable conditions. Following MG’s latest update, a 360-degree camera is now standard across the range for easier parking and low-speed manoeuvring. These systems support the driver but still require full attention at the wheel.

Why Choose an MG HS Lease with Synergy?

The MG HS range covers several different leasing requirements, from an affordable petrol family SUV to more efficient Hybrid+ and Plug-in Hybrid models. Our team can explain the differences between each version and build your MG HS lease around the mileage, contract term and initial rental that work for you.

You’ll have a dedicated account manager who oversees your lease and provides a consistent point of contact, so you know who to speak to if you have a question or need an update. Free UK mainland delivery is included, and optional maintenance can be added to cover scheduled servicing, routine maintenance and replacement tyres.

Our customer experience has received independent industry recognition. Synergy received the Feefo Platinum Trusted Service Award 2026 and was named Broker of the Year at the Broker News Awards in 2024 and 2025.

Business Leasing

The range of powertrains gives businesses more flexibility when choosing an MG HS business lease. Petrol models can suit drivers who want a conventional SUV, while Hybrid+ reduces official fuel consumption without requiring workplace or home charging. The Plug-in Hybrid is particularly relevant to company car drivers thanks to its 12g/km CO2 figure and 75-mile WLTP electric range.

The HS can also form part of a fleet leasing arrangement. Its five-seat SUV layout, SE and Trophy trim choices and three powertrain options allow businesses to accommodate different roles, journey patterns and driver preferences within the same model range.

Personal Leasing

MG HS personal leasing offers access to a new SUV for fixed monthly rentals without taking on ownership or having to sell the car later. You choose your annual mileage, contract length and initial rental at the start, then return the HS when the agreement ends, subject to mileage and fair wear and tear conditions.

For private customers, the HS is particularly suited to those who prioritise space and equipment for their monthly budget. There’s seating for five, a large luggage area and twin 12.3-inch displays as standard, while the choice of three powertrains means you can select the version that best matches how you drive.

Looking for Something Similar?

If you're considering an MG HS lease, here are some other mid-size SUVs to check out:

- Kia Sportage: Offers similar space and hybrid tech, but with a more premium interior and wider choice of powertrains. It's a good option if you're looking for extra refinement and brand familiarity at a slightly higher monthly cost.

- Nissan Qashqai: Often seen as the benchmark in this class, the Qashqai has a more polished feel and sharper infotainment but comes at a higher lease price. It’s worth considering if you're after a more established badge and advanced driver aids.

- Hyundai Tucson: More distinctive in design and packed with tech, the Tucson has a broader hybrid range than the MG HS and a more upmarket cabin. It's a strong contender if design and equipment are top priorities.
