(19 September 2018, Middle East) MG Motor has confirmed that its stylish all-new MG6 sedan will be launched in the Middle East in late October this year. The all-new MG6 is the latest model from the British-born automotive brand, which is enjoying a major resurgence in popularity across the region as its expanding new product line-up continues to attract a rapidly increasing number of buyers.
The sleek, dynamic profile of the all-new MG6 is boosted by carbon fibre trim on the front bumper, headlamps featuring a ‘London Eye’ design concept, twin chrome exhaust pipes and a ‘Star Rider’ front grille, which takes inspiration from the brand’s expressive design language. The sporty, premium vibe continues inside the cabin with a smartly configured dashboard and central console, complemented by stylish leather-wrapped seats boasting a black and red interior on top-of-the-range models.
In addition to offering the most interior space in its segment, the all-new MG6 builds on MG’s reputation for providing extremely generous levels of equipment. An 8-inch colour touch screen with Apple CarPlay, push start button, keyless entry, auto hold function, tyre pressure monitoring system, rear parking camera, and a dual-zone cool climate control system featuring rear air-conditioning vents are just some of the features that are set to be offered as standard.
When it arrives in the Middle East, the MG6 will be equipped with a 1.5-litre turbo engine, mated to a 7-speed Dual Clutch Transmission (DTC) with paddle shift option, for smooth, effortless performance. This efficient petrol unit delivers maximum power of 169hp and maximum torque of 250Nm.
Mr. Tom Lee, Managing Director, SAIC Motor Middle East, commented: “The all-new MG6 will reinforce the brand’s reputation for offering reliability and industry-leading value for money. By spending their hard-earned money on our cars in increasing numbers, customers across the region are clearly demonstrating their appreciation of MG’s line-up of good looking, well-equipped and technologically-advanced models. This new generation model will stand out in the Middle East’s prominent sedan segment, and will help us to achieve our objective of increasing market share.”
Since its acquisition of MG Motor, SAIC MOTOR, as a Global Top 500 company, has opened a new chapter for this British-born brand. The introduction of the all-new MG6 follows the launch of two SUV models earlier this year, the MG RX5 compact SUV and the MG ZS SUV, as well as the second-generation MG GS. Together, these models join the existing MG 360 to complete the brand’s Middle East line-up.
