The MG QS Tremendous Hybrid is one step nearer to launching within the Australian market, the place it’ll tackle institution Japanese and Korean gamers and Chinese language challengers within the rising plug-in hybrid SUV house.
Authorities certification paperwork seen by CarExpert present the QS Tremendous Hybrid has been permitted on the market in Australia, and supply key particulars on its plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrain.
We’ve contacted MG Motor Australia to verify when the QS Tremendous Hybrid will launch domestically.
Per the paperwork, the QS Tremendous Hybrid mates a 105kW turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine with a single-speed computerized transmission and a 170kW electrical motor, with MG claiming a complete system output of 150kW.
That sees it practically matching the prevailing petrol-powered QS launched right here earlier this yr, which pumps out 153kW from a turbocharged 2.0-litre 4.

The approval paperwork don’t checklist battery capability or electric-only vary.
The front-wheel drive HS Tremendous Hybrid mid-size SUV launched in Australia earlier this yr additionally contains a 105kW 1.5-litre turbo-petrolengine. Nevertheless, it has claimed system outputs of 220kW and 350Nm, and makes use of a 24.7kWh battery providing 120km of electrical vary on the WLTP cycle.
Just like the HS Tremendous Hybrid however not like the petrol QS, the Tremendous Hybrid – which has but to be formally revealed or go on sale in any market – is obtainable completely with front-wheel drive. No all-wheel drive choice is on the market.
It nonetheless contains a seven-seat structure, matching the rival Chery Tiggo 9 Tremendous Hybrid and one-upping – or is that two-upping? – the upcoming Skoda Kodiaq PHEVwhich affords solely a five-seat configuration.
The QS Tremendous Hybrid is rated to tow a great deal of as much as 750kg (unbraked) and 2000kg (braked), and weighs 2124kg with a gross automobile mass of 2717kg. A single variant is listed within the paperwork, that includes 20-inch alloy wheels just like the petrol-powered QS Excite.
Dimensionally, the PHEV is unchanged from the common QS, measuring 4983mm lengthy and 1967mm large on a 2915mm wheelbase – thereby placing it between Hyundai’s Santa Fe and Palisade in dimension.
Its exterior styling – unchanged from the common QS – was revealed final week in a Euro NCAP report, the place it obtained 5 stars in security testing. It’s set to launch in Europe carrying the MG S9 PHEV nameplate.
After submitting to trademark the QS Plug-in Hybrid nameplate final yr, MG in August filed to guard the QS Tremendous Hybrid nameplate to align it with the HS Tremendous Hybrid.
Within the HS, MG at present costs a $15,000-16,000 premium for plug-in hybrid energy over the bottom petrol engine, relying on the variant.
Ought to it do the identical with the QS, we are able to anticipate drive-away pricing within the low/mid-$60k vary, which aligns it intently with the rival Tiggo 9 Tremendous Hybrid ($59,990 earlier than on-roads). That might see it undercut the bottom Toyota Klugerwhich has a standard hybrid and never a plug-in powertrain, and dramatically undercut the Kia Sorento PHEV (from $70,880 earlier than on-roads).
MG launched the QS in Australia halfway via 2025, marking the primary time it had supplied a three-row SUV domestically.
A rebadged RX9 from fellow SAIC Motor model Roewe, the QS has already notched up 777 deliveries in Australia this yr, pushing it previous the rival Nissan Pathfinder (636) and drawing near the Skoda Kodiaq (1035).
