The all-new 2019 MG Motor MG6 has officially arrived in the Middle East. The sporty family sedan is now in its third generation, receiving substantial upgrades in the performance, efficiency, and class-leading comfort.
MG Motor has a knack of offering quality design features normally found on higher-end automobiles from premium carmakers. The company gave the 2019 MG6 a new 'Star Rider' grille, carbon fibre accents, and LED headlamps inspired by the London Eye. The sporty sedan also gets progressive indicators a large 'MG' badge, tasteful chrome inserts, and a twin-exhaust setup. The design details come together to impart the MG6 an imposing stance. 18-inch alloy wheels with new low rolling resistance tyres complete the bold look.
The interior is as luxurious as the exterior is sporty. The cockpit is packed with the latest in-car technology, featuring a prominent 8-inch full-colour touchscreen infotainment system that occupies the centre of the dashboard. The infotainment unit can also be operated from the multi-function leather-wrapped steering wheel. Apple CarPlay, push-to-start button keyless entry, digital dials, six speakers, a tyre pressure monitoring system, and a rear parking camera are all standard features on the MG MG6.
The cabin features 22 practical stowage spaces and is trimmed in vibrant dual-tone black and optional beige or red leather upholstery. The leather wraps around the doors and dashboard giving you a cossetting feeling. The dual-zone air conditioning ensures all the occupants of the sedan are cool and comfortable. The 2019 MG MG6 can swallow 424 litres of luggage, with the capacity going up to 1,170 litres after the rear seats are folded.
MG Motor is offering the MG6 in the Middle East with a 1.5-litre petrol engine that makes 169hp and 250Nm. A seven-speed dual clutch gearbox handles transmission duties. The specs of the sedan see it rocketing to the ton in seven seconds flat. The 2019 MG6 also returns good fuel economy despite the power output, needing just six litres of fuel to cover 100km. There are four driving modes for the sedan- Eco, Normal, Sports, and Individual- with the last mode being customisable as per the driver's preferences.
The 2019 MG MG6 boasts of a five-star CNCAP rating, ensuring the safety of the whole family in the event of an unfortunate mishap.
Mr Tom Lee, Managing Director of MG Motor's parent company SAIC Motor Middle East, commented: “The all-new MG6 appeals to a range of customers across the region, especially younger buyers who are looking for value for money in a stylish, technologically-advanced package. This latest generation of the MG6 takes the quality and styling of our vehicle to a new level, providing the kind of features customers expect to find on premium automotive brands.”
“Since SAIC Motor's acquisition of MG Motor, and as a Global Top 500 company, we have opened a new chapter for this British-born brand. The introduction of the all-new MG6 comes hot on the heels of 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. With these models joining the existing MG 360, we now have a very competitive and appealing line-up to offer our discerning customers in the Middle East.”
The 2019 MG Motor MG6 is now available in all MG Motor showrooms across the Middle East.
