MG 350 Overview: Generations, Specs and Versions to Buy
MG 350 specs, generations and versions for 2010–2015: a front-wheel-drive sedan with 106–126 hp and a guide to which modification to pick.
The MG 350 is a compact front-wheel-drive sedan produced from 2010 to 2015 in a single generation, with power outputs from 106 to 126 hp. It suits drivers who want a simple, modestly powered family sedan with a choice of manual or automatic transmission. This page collects mg 350 specs across all three modifications to help you compare them directly.
MG 350 generations
1 generation (2010–2015)
The first and only generation of the MG 350 was built from 2010 to 2015 exclusively as a sedan, always with front-wheel drive. All three modifications use a 1498 cc engine, with output spanning 106 to 126 hp depending on the version. Buyers could choose between Automatic and Manual gearboxes. The 1.5 AT (106 hp) accelerates to 100 km/h in 10.2 seconds with fuel consumption of 8.26 l/100 km, while the 1.5 MT with the same 106 hp needs 11.4 seconds but consumes only 6.8 l/100 km. The most powerful version, the 1.5 AT (126 hp), posts 12.5 seconds and 7.1 l/100 km.
Which MG 350 to buy
- 1.5 AT (106 hp) (1 generation): the mass-market version, reaching 100 km/h in 10.2 seconds — the quickest of the three modifications.
- 1.5 AT (126 hp) (1 generation): the most powerful version at 126 hp, combined with moderate consumption of 7.1 l/100 km for an automatic.
- 1.5 MT (1 generation): the most economical choice at 6.8 l/100 km, the lowest fuel consumption in the range.
Since every MG 350 belongs to the same 2010–2015 generation with one engine displacement of 1498 cc, a used-car search is straightforward: there are no cross-generation differences to track, and the choice comes down to gearbox and power output.
Which MG 350 to avoid
The 1.5 AT (126 hp) looks strongest on paper, but the numbers show a trade-off rather than dominance, so no version is strictly worse across the board. The closest comparison is between the two 106 hp versions: the 1.5 AT (106 hp) is faster (10.2 s vs 11.4 s) but thirstier (8.26 vs 6.8 l/100 km) than the 1.5 MT, so each still wins on one metric. Pick by priority — acceleration, economy, or maximum power — rather than ruling any modification out.
