With all the features it offers at that price, the MG has no competition. A BMW X1 of similar dimensions with a few extra upgrades costs more than twice as much, and considering that 40% of MG’s spare parts come from Germany (Bosch, Continental, etc.), I’d go for the MG ZS Hybrid without a second thought.

Porsche Taycan Wagon

The Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo dresses electric sportscar intent in a practical, slightly rugged estate body, delivering rare performance thrills with genuine everyday usefulness. It feels unmistakably Porsche inside — taut, premium and driver-focused — while the raised ride and extra luggage space make it as happy on a muddy weekend escape as it is on a twisty back road.
