The MG 5 is the clear choice for those seeking an affordable sedan, with a transparent price range of 650,000 – 720,000 EGP, unlike the unspecified pricing of the Cerato.
With its impressive fuel economy of 5.5 L/100km, the MG 5 is the better option for daily city driving, ensuring lower running costs compared to the Cerato's 6.7 L/100km.
Families and individuals needing ample storage will appreciate the MG 5's generous 512-liter trunk capacity, significantly larger than the Kia Cerato's 427 liters.
