The Pakistan Auto Show 2025 has brought plenty of excitement, and one of the most talked-about models this year is the MG Binguo EV. Although MG is presenting it under its own brand, the car is actually the Wuling Binguo EV manufactured by SAIC-GM-Wuling, the same global group that owns MG. For Pakistani consumers, this means a well-established international EV is finally stepping into a market that has long needed budget-friendly electric options.
A Practical City EV With Strong Stats
The MG Binguo EV comes with a 50 kW electric motor, paired with a 31.9 kWh LFP battery, offering an estimated 333 km range on the CLTC cycle. While real-world driving often results in slightly lower numbers, it still covers most daily routines comfortably.
To put it into perspective:
-
A typical commuter in cities like Lahore or Karachi drives 25 to 40 km per day.
-
With a full charge, the Binguo could easily last a full week of daily office commutes without needing a recharge.
Its top speed of around 120 km/h makes it suitable for city driving and short highway trips.
Charging Times That Fit Daily Routines
EV buyers in Pakistan often worry about charging times, but the Binguo EV keeps things simple:
-
AC Home Charger: Around 5.5 hours
-
DC Fast Charging: 30 to 35 minutes to go from 30% to 80%
For example, a student or working professional could plug in the car after reaching home and wake up to a full battery the next morning—no fuel pump visits, no waiting.
Interior Built for Comfort and Convenience
The Binguo’s cabin feels surprisingly modern for a subcompact EV. It features:
-
Dual 10.25-inch digital displays
-
Keyless entry
-
Multiple storage spaces
-
Foldable rear seats for extra luggage
-
A clean, minimal dashboard design
Families who need space for groceries or university bags will appreciate the foldable back seats. The layout is designed to feel more premium than its segment typically offers.
MG Binguo EV Safety Features
MG is positioning the Binguo EV as a safe choice for urban families. The safety kit includes:
-
Dual airbags
-
ABS
-
Electronic Stability Control
-
Rear camera
-
ISOFIX mounts for children’s seats
These features make it more secure than many small hatchbacks currently running on Pakistani roads.
Higher-spec variants in global markets even offer extended range batteries and stronger motors, suggesting MG may introduce upgraded versions later.
MG Expands Its Lineup With a Pickup Truck
Alongside the Binguo EV, MG also displayed the U9 pickup truck, signaling the brand’s interest in Pakistan’s rapidly expanding pickup and commercial vehicle segment. It shows that MG is not only targeting city commuters but also utility and work-focused buyers.
