MG S6 Overview: Generations, Specs and Which Version to Buy

An overview of the MG S6, a 5-door SUV produced from 2025 with 245–360 hp, covering its generation lineup and which version to choose.

The MG S6 is a 5-door SUV produced from 2025 to the present, offered with outputs ranging from 245 to 360 hp. With automatic transmissions across the range and a choice of rear-wheel drive or 4x4, it suits drivers who want a modern electric SUV with strong performance — the top version reaches 100 km/h in 5.1 seconds — while the rear-driven variants cover everyday family use.

MG S6 generations

1 generation (2025–present)

The first and so far only generation of the MG S6 launched in 2025 and remains in production. It is built exclusively as a 5-door SUV and comes in 2 modifications, all with an automatic transmission. Power spans from 245 hp to 360 hp, and buyers choose between rear-wheel drive and 4x4. The standout version is the MG S6 AT AWD (1 generation), an electric 4x4 model with 360 hp that accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.1 seconds — a figure that puts this SUV firmly in performance territory.

Because the lineup is compact — one generation, one body style, two modifications — choosing an MG S6 mostly comes down to drivetrain and power. The MG S6 AT AWD (1 generation) sits at the top with 360 hp and all-wheel drive, while the 245 hp variant represents the entry point with rear-wheel drive. Both ends of the range share the same 5-door SUV body and the same automatic transmission, so the 115 hp gap between the 245 hp and 360 hp versions, together with the driven axles, is what genuinely separates the two modifications. The 360 hp flagship is also the mass-market choice within the lineup rather than a niche special, which means it should be the easier of the two to find on sale.

The generation's production window of 2025 to the present also means there are no facelifts or mid-cycle updates to account for yet: every MG S6 built so far belongs to the same technical family, with the same 245–360 hp spread and the same RWD/4x4 drivetrain options that defined the model at launch.

Which MG S6 to buy

On the used market the MG S6 is a very recent proposition: production only began in 2025, so any example will be nearly new. The single-generation, two-modification lineup makes comparing listings straightforward — there are no earlier generations or overlapping model years to untangle, and every car has an automatic transmission, so the main decision is simply between the rear-wheel-drive and 4x4 versions. Buyers who want the strongest acceleration should look for the 360 hp AT AWD with 4x4; those who do not need a 5.1-second sprint to 100 km/h can save money with the 245 hp rear-wheel-drive variant, which still delivers substantial output for a family SUV of this class.
