Frequently asked questions
What are the Hongqi EHS7 and MG IM6 like on a long motorway trip?
EVcarsguide estimates a real-world motorway range of about 275 miles for the Hongqi EHS7 and 275 miles for the MG IM6 - effectively matched, and both well below their WLTP figures because sustained high speed is the hardest case for an EV. Both rapid-charge to 80% in a similar time, around 17-20 minutes.
Which is easier to park and drive in town, the Hongqi EHS7 or the MG IM6?
The Hongqi EHS7 is the easier car for tight UK car parks: it is 38 mm narrower than the MG IM6. In a standard 2,400 mm bay that leaves about 450 mm of total clearance for the Hongqi EHS7 and about 412 mm of total clearance for the MG IM6.
Which battery will hold up better as a used buy, the Hongqi EHS7 or the MG IM6?
Over a 8-year ownership window EVcarsguide's degradation model projects roughly 84% battery health for the Hongqi EHS7 and 84% for the MG IM6. That is close enough that capacity loss should not decide between them. Both use NMC-type cells, so for daily use keep the charge limit near 80% to slow degradation.
