Make Shorter Adventures Electric
Not every Bank Holiday adventure needs to take you hundreds of miles from home.
The MGS9 Plug-in Hybrid offers up to 62 miles of electric only driving under WLTP testing. Charge before you leave and you could use electric power for shorter journeys depending on your route, driving conditions and available charge.
Perhaps your plans involve visiting a local attraction, heading out for lunch or spending the afternoon exploring somewhere closer to home.
Once you arrive at your hotel or holiday accommodation, you may also be able to recharge before heading out again, where suitable charging facilities are available.
It is plug-in hybrid flexibility that can fit around the way you want to spend your weekend.
Go Further With Plug-in Hybrid Flexibility
What if 62 miles is not enough?
Keep going.
The MGS9 combines its electric motor and 24.7kWh battery with a 1.5 litre turbocharged petrol engine.
That makes it particularly suited to a Bank Holiday when your plans might suddenly become more ambitious.
You could start with the idea of a local day out and end up deciding to spend the night somewhere new. Or perhaps you already have a longer UK road trip planned.
The MGS9 gives you the option to enjoy electric driving while still having the flexibility of a petrol engine when your adventure takes you further.
Let Everyone Choose Their Own Temperature
Seven people in one car can mean seven opinions on what the perfect temperature should be.
Thankfully, the MGS9 features tri-zone climate control.
Different areas of the cabin can be kept at comfortable temperatures, helping to keep everyone happy during a warm Bank Holiday journey.
Combine that with the spacious three row cabin and panoramic glass roof and even a longer journey can feel bright, airy and comfortable.
It could be especially welcome when Bank Holiday traffic turns a two hour journey into something considerably longer.
Turn the Journey Into Part of the Holiday
If you are spending a few hours behind the wheel, comfort matters.
The MGS9 Premium takes this even further with heated, ventilated and massaging front seats.
On a warm August afternoon, ventilated seats could help keep you comfortable. If the weather changes, heated seats are ready too.
And after a full day exploring on foot, a massage function might be exactly what you want when it is time to drive back home.
Add a 12 speaker Bose audio system and your Bank Holiday soundtrack can come along for the ride too.
The only difficult part might be agreeing on the playlist.
Keep Everyone Connected
A family road trip can quickly become a battle over charging cables.
The MGS9 has been designed with modern family journeys in mind, offering multiple USB charging points throughout the cabin alongside wireless phone charging.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto also make it simple to access compatible navigation, music and other smartphone features through the infotainment system.
So, while you concentrate on the road, passengers can keep their devices powered for photos, entertainment and finding somewhere good for lunch.
Power Your Bank Holiday With Vehicle to Load
Planning something a little more adventurous?
The MGS9 also features Vehicle to Load capability, allowing compatible electrical equipment to draw power from the vehicle with the appropriate equipment.
This opens up some interesting possibilities for a Bank Holiday outdoors.
You could power electrical equipment during a camping trip or make a day outside that little bit more convenient.
It is the type of feature you might not think about every day but one that could become surprisingly useful when the long weekend arrives.
Take Some of the Stress Out of Busy Bank Holiday Car Parks
You have finally reached the coast.
There is just one problem. Everyone else had the same idea.
Busy attractions and seaside towns can mean squeezing into crowded car parks. The MGS9's 360 degree camera provides a view around the vehicle to help with manoeuvring when spaces are tight.
The MGS9 also offers a range of driver assistance technology to support you during longer journeys.
That means whether you are navigating motorway traffic or searching for that final parking space near the beach, there is technology on hand to support your journey.
Seven Seats. Three Days. Your Adventure.
The best Bank Holiday plans are not always the ones you make months in advance.
Sometimes you simply need to pack the car, choose a destination and go.
That is where the All-New MGS9 Plug-in Hybrid comes into its own.
Seven seats mean you can bring more people. Flexible luggage space means you can bring more of what you need. Plug-in hybrid power gives you options for shorter electric journeys and longer adventures while comfort and connectivity features help everyone enjoy the journey.
The destination is entirely up to you.
