MG3 Business & Personal Car Leasing Offers
The MG3 has been a staple of MG’s line-up since its introduction to the UK market in 2013. Produced by SAIC Motor under the MG brand, it represents MG’s focus on delivering practical and affordable driving. In 2024, the MG3 received a major update, including the addition of a self-charging hybrid model - making it the first MG to offer this powertrain.
As a small hatchback, the MG3 sits below the MG4 in the range and offers a more traditional alternative to MG’s growing line of electric vehicles. It’s ideal for drivers who want a compact car with low monthly costs, whether you're looking for an MG3 business lease or MG3 personal lease.

Engine & Performance
The MG3 is available with two powertrain options to suit different driving needs. The standard 1.5-litre petrol engine delivers 115bhp and comes with a five-speed manual gearbox. It’s designed for reliable everyday driving, offering a 0–62mph time of around 10.8 seconds and combined fuel economy of approximately 46mpg (WLTP).
The new MG3 Hybrid+ pairs a 1.5-litre petrol engine with an electric motor and battery, producing a combined 194bhp. It uses a three-speed automatic gearbox and accelerates from 0–62mph in 8 seconds. This self-charging hybrid setup improves fuel economy to 64.2mpg, making it a great option for drivers who want added efficiency without needing to plug in.
Exterior Features
The MG3 has a compact, sporty design. The updated model features a bold front grille, sharp headlights, and clean body lines that enhance its modern appeal. SE models come with 16-inch alloy wheels, LED daytime running lights, and body-coloured bumpers and mirrors.
Trophy trims bring further styling and convenience, including LED projector headlights, a contrasting black roof, rear privacy glass, and a 360-degree parking camera. Both trims include automatic headlights, electrically adjustable and heated door mirrors, and rear parking sensors as standard.

Trophy models include heated front seats, leather-style upholstery with cloth inserts, automatic climate control, and keyless entry. These features help deliver a more premium experience, particularly for drivers spending longer periods behind the wheel.
