How Safe Is the MG MGS6 EV? New Euro NCAP Score Explained

If you care about how a family electric sport utility vehicle protects the people inside and around it, the MG MGS6 EV is worth a closer look. Euro NCAP has published a fresh safety rating for this small sport utility vehicle, and the results show a confident mix of structure, restraints, and driver assists working together in the moments that matter most.

In frontal and side impacts, the cabin stays composed, and the restraint strategy does its job. The front airbags, pretensioners, and load limiters combine to protect the driver and passenger, while side airbags extend coverage for the head, chest, and pelvis in lateral hits. The car also adds a center airbag to help reduce occupant-to-occupant contact in a far-side crash. Whiplash protection for both the front and rear seats scores well, which is a reassuring detail for the kinds of low-to-medium-speed rear shunts that happen in daily traffic.

Adult Occupant protection is rated at 92%, with strong scores in both frontal and side testing. Child Occupant protection reaches 85%, helped by clear airbag status information, i-Size compatibility, and an installation check that does not throw up any surprises. Parents should note that the car does not include child presence detection, so good habits still matter: always look, lock, and double-check.

The story outside the vehicle is encouraging, too. Vulnerable Road Users protection lands at 84%. The autonomous emergency braking reacts to pedestrians and cyclists in multiple day and night scenarios, including when a child runs out from behind parked cars. There is even some protection when reversing, plus a limited dooring-prevention function to help reduce the risk when opening the driver door into a passing cyclist.

Safety Assist totals 78%. That figure reflects an emergency braking system that performs well against cars, lane support that intervenes when drift is detected, and speed assistance that reads limits and can set a limiter automatically if the driver chooses. A direct-monitoring driver attention system looks for signs of drowsiness and certain types of distraction, and seat belt reminders cover all seating positions.

Put simply, the MG MGS6 EV blends robust crash protection with modern assistance tech in a package that is ready for school runs, commutes, and weekend miles.
