## Is the MG3 Hybrid+ worth considering?

ADAC measured 5.3 L/100 km against the official 4.4 L/100 km, about a fifth above the claim but still low for a small car with 195 PS. Euro NCAP gave it four stars, and ADAC's report notes that the driver's seat came loose from one anchorage in the frontal crash test.
