This road trip review of the MG5 SW through the challenging Lake District passes, including Wrynose and Hardknott, highlights the electric estate's surprising capability. The reviewer praises its planted feel, responsive steering, and ability to handle steep inclines and hairpins with ease, even in adverse weather conditions. The car's handling is consistently lauded, with particular emphasis on its agility and composure, defying expectations for an estate car. While the reviewer notes the absence of advanced driver aids like lane keep assist, they conclude that the MG5 SW offers impressive versatility and range, exceeding expectations for adventurous journeys and proving range anxiety is not a concern for typical use. The car's ability to recoup range through regenerative braking is also a key positive takeaway.
