Oh contraire ... when you, wife kids & trunk packed up, it would be nice to have a bit more performance, when O&A.  Especially since you're paying for it.  Why settle for less, especially when it cost more.

 

Did state I'm a MG fan, especially after owner other brands from JP.  No different the Toyota fans recommending what they know or read about.   Except, I've owned what I talk about,   Whether recommending or stating, I wouldn't bother again.

 

OP asked for recommendations ... that's what I gave and reason why.  Here on forum & PMs.  

 

Safety & performance, along with fuel economy of a HEV ...  added plus of being less expensive of everything else OP has looked at.  

 

... Toyota Yaris Cross is ฿789,000 - ฿899,000

... Toyota Veloz is ฿795,000–875,000 THB

 

.... MG VS HEV ... ฿699,000 TBH

 

the Veloz is a 7 seater where the MG VS HEV is 5 seats only

when it comes to luggage space 

he Toyota Veloz has a generous amount of luggage space, with 498 liters of boot space when the third row of seats is folded down. Even with all seats occupied, the boot can still fit two cabin bags. The Veloz also has roof rails that can support up to 75 kg of cargo. 

The Veloz is a crossover vehicle that combines features of both SUVs and MPVs. It has a roomy cabin that can comfortably seat up to seven passengers across three rows. The middle row's captain's chairs are designed to be more comfortable and make it easier to access the third row. 

MG VS HEV

Rear luggage space 383 – 1,372 litres (when rear seats are folded)

Unlikely that the op would ever be using with rear seats folded as there would be no space for children to sit

and price range for MG VS HEV is from B699K-B759K

so luggage space on Veloz is 115 litres more than MG VS HEV

Here's an unbiased comparison summary of the three main contenders from AI ChatGPT.
 

Verdict

 

MG VS Hybrid: Ideal for those seeking a budget-friendly, well-equipped hybrid with solid comfort. However, expect compromises in resale value and hybrid refinement.

Yaris Cross HEV:

Best for urban drivers who want Toyota’s top-tier fuel efficiency, nimble handling, and strong resale potential in a crossover package.

Veloz Hybrid:
Excellent if you need a spacious seven-seater with hybrid efficiency, though its MPV design may not appeal if you prefer a sporty crossover experience.

Overall Recommendation:
For versatility, fuel efficiency, and resale, the Toyota Yaris Cross HEV stands out as the most balanced choice. If extra space is a priority, the Veloz Hybrid offers great capacity and Toyota’s hybrid benefits. The MG VS Hybrid is a solid option if budget is a higher priority, though with trade-offs in resale and hybrid refinement.
