No one doubts that MG is here to stay in Europe, as the ZS is selling very well (and now the new generation is coming with a hybrid version) and we bet the MG3 will do a lot of damage to the traditional SUVs. The new HS , a mid-size SUV, is also attracting a lot of interest. And if the Chinese-owned British brand wanted to, it could bring more interesting vehicles to the Old Continent.
We told you about the MG ONE , a coupé-like SUV, and now we are going to tell you about the MG GT. As you can see in the pictures, it is a saloon with sporty lines. An attractive alternative to SUVs that is also close to Hyundai 's proposal with the beautiful i30 Fastback .
However, the Chinese representative is bigger and cheaper than the Korean one. Gallery: MG GT 2024 MG GT: cheap and well-equipped Specifically, it is 4.68 metres long and, in the Chilean market, it is available from only $12,990, which is less than £10,000 at the current exchange rate.
An unbeatable price from our European perspective. The mechanical range is based on a 1.5-litre petrol block.
There is a 114 PS naturally aspirated version and a 162 PS turbocharged version. The latter engine, linked exclusively to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, allows the car to reach a top speed of 134 mph. In Chile, the MG GT's standard equipment includes air conditioning, 16-inch alloy wheels, LED headlamps and lights, sunroof, 10-inch central display, rear-view camera, light sensor and exposed tailpipes, among other things.
New MG SUVs: Will it come to Europe? It is therefore clear that MG is applying the same successful formula as in Europe: lots of standard equipment for little money, at the expense of a simple petrol engine (in this case with 114 PS). For the 162 PS variant, you pay almost £14,000. Even though many customers in Europe are attracted to SUVs, we think the GT would have its audience.
After all, it is a different and eye-catching vehicle, not without practicality. Do you think MG will bring it to our continent? Source: MG Motor Chile.
