The MGTF LE500 has hit the market in the UK, but it appears that there may not be that many left especially as MG managed to sell all but 110 of them, although we’ve since heard rumours of SAIC wanting to produce more of the LE500 to satisfy demand. The LE500 is not the only MG to be launched this week, the MG7 autobox is also being launched, priced at a reasonable 174,800rmb to 200,280rmb, the MG7 may actually see a massive sales boost as automatic gearboxes are very popular in this segment, with auto’s being the norm, and manuals only being specc’d on low end models.
In addition to the new model launches, it appears that MG3 Streetwise (SW) will being some export action as well, although NAC MG have not yet specified which markets they plan to target, they do say that foreign customers in overseas markets have ordered the MG3 SW.
CCT thinks it might be a little too late to launch the MG3 SW in Western Europe, but Eastern Europe, Asia, South America and Africa may well be a ripe market for the little bubble motor.
Does anyone knows if MG 3SW comes as a RHD. Thanks..
