Frequently Asked Questions

The MG IM6 is a midsize electric SUV developed under SAIC’s “Intelligence in Motion (IM)” sub-brand, co-created with Alibaba. It sits above MG’s mainstream models like the MG4 and MG ZS EV, positioned as a premium Chinese electric SUV rivaling the Tesla Model Y and BYD Sealion 7.
Depending on trim, the MG IM6 produces 300 to 553 kW and 500 to 802 Nm of torque. The Performance AWD version accelerates from 0–100 km/h in 3.5 seconds, while the single-motor RWD versions take about 5.4 seconds. The top speed is 240 km/h.
The MG IM6 offers an official WLTP range between 455 km and 510 km, depending on battery and motor configuration. Real-world figures observed by reviewers typically fall between 430–470 km, depending on weather, speed, and driving style.
The MG IM6 uses a 96.5 kWh lithium-ion pack, with LFP chemistry in entry models and NCM chemistry in higher trims. It operates on either a 400 V or 800 V system, allowing very fast charging and improved thermal management.
On a Level 3 DC fast charger, the MG IM6 charges from 30 % to 80 % in roughly 17 minutes (peak ≈ 396 kW). Using a Level 2 AC charger (11 kW), a full charge takes about 10 hours 30 minutes, ideal for overnight home charging.
The cabin of the MG IM6 includes a 26-inch panoramic digital display, synthetic-leather upholstery, heated and ventilated seats, and 20-speaker active-noise-cancellation audio. Reviewers praised its quiet ride and spacious rear seats, though noted that touchscreen-based controls can be distracting.
The MG IM6 features adaptive air suspension and four-wheel steering for maneuverability, but reviewers described the ride as firm and reactive over rough roads. Steering feel is light and somewhat digital, prioritizing refinement over sporty engagement.
Standard features include lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, 360-degree cameras, and driver-monitoring systems. Reviewers appreciated its advanced ADAS coverage but found warning alerts overly frequent and intrusive during normal driving.
The MG IM6 matches rivals in power and charging speed while offering a lower price. However, its energy efficiency (~22 kWh/100 km) is weaker than the Tesla Model Y’s, and its ride comfort trails premium European EVs.
The MG IM6 is covered by a 5-year unlimited-kilometre vehicle warranty (extendable to 7 years with MG servicing) and a battery warranty, along with capped-price servicing for five years.

Pros & Cons

Pros:

The higher trim of the MG IM6 supports up to ~396 kW DC fast charging, enabling a 30-80 % charge in around 15 minutes (on the 800 V architecture).
The top AWD variant of the MG IM6 delivers high power and torque (≈ 570 kW / 800+ Nm) and recorded 0-100 km/h times around 3.4 s in testing.
With a 4.9 m length, flat EV floor, generous rear legroom and a boot of ~646 L (plus a 32 L front trunk), the MG IM6 offers good usable size for a family EV.
Reviewers note the MG IM6 uses double-glazed glass, active noise-cancellation via a 20-speaker system and achieves excellent NVH for its class.
The MG IM6 comes with features such as four-wheel steering, air suspension (in some trims), a large 26-inch display, V2L (vehicle-to-load) output (~6.6 kW) and plenty of driver assistance/safety tech.
For its size and capability, the MG IM6 undercuts many premium EVs, making it an interesting “premium electric SUV” proposition at a lower price point.
Owners in forums note tight panel gaps, good paint/fitment and an interior that feels more upscale than previous MG models.

Cons:

Real-world consumption for the MG IM6 is around ~22 kWh/100 km, which is higher (worse) than many competitors in the mid-size EV segment (e.g., ~14-18 kWh/100 km in some rivals).
Despite adaptive air suspension, reviewers found the ride of the MG IM6 “firm”, “reactive” or “busy” over rough surfaces, reducing the luxury-feel.
The MG IM6’s rear window is small/slender, necessitating a camera-mirror workaround; also, many physical controls are deeply nested in touch-menus and some functions are cumbersome to access.
Owners and experts reported the MG IM6’s driver-aid alerts (beeps, bongs, warnings) are excessive or intrusive, reducing the sense of seamless driving.
Some forum users flagged that the MG/IM branding is confusing, the software interface lags helper rivals, and service/after-sales for the MG IM6 may not yet feel premium.
