Economy
These are the highest official combined mpg ranges stored on each engine. The test cycle is recorded on the variant, so ranges from different cycles are not ranked as one list of winners.
| Engine | Generation | Combined mpg range | CO₂ range |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.5 hybrid (hev) 194PS | ZP22 | 64.2 mpg | 100 g/km |
| 1.5 petrol 108PS | MG3 (second generation, 2011-2024) | 42.2–51.4 mpg | 124–140 g/km |
| 1.5 petrol 116PS | ZP22 | 46.3 mpg | 137 g/km |
| 1.5 petrol 106PS | UKVD Mk2 | 42.8 mpg | 147 g/km |
| 1.5 petrol 108PS | UKVD Mk2 | 42.2 mpg | 152 g/km |

Questions
How many MG MG3 cars are in the VehicleScore dataset?
1,501 cars in our dataset. That is the catalogue sample, not UK sales or production.
Which MG3 generations are covered?
MG3 (second generation, 2011-2024), UKVD Mk2, ZP22
How these figures are produced
Specifications and counts come from the VehicleScore UK vehicle catalogue. A count of cars is the number of records in that dataset. It is not UK production, not sales, and not the number of cars currently on the road.
Power is shown in PS where the catalogue stores PS, and in bhp only where bhp is stored separately. Official fuel economy is labelled NEDC or WLTP when the test cycle is known. Figures from different cycles are not ranked together. Empty values are left blank.
The catalogue does not store a revision date, so these pages do not show a last-updated day.
