The MG5 Turbo will be powered by a turbocharged 1.5 liter four-cylinder. Power is 135hp, which doesn’t seem too much, except when you know the standard 1.5 has only 109hp. The 1.5 turbo will be mated to a 6-speed DCT. A 6-speed automatic might become available as well, but not at launch. The 1.5 turbo engine will also be used in the Roewe 350 sedan and in the new MG SUV.
