China gets UK edition of the MG6


A few months ago I spotted a UK version of the MG6 testing in Shanghai’s Jia Ding district, which is not too far from SAIC’s headquarters. Of course only I am sad enough to spot the slightest difference between the UK and Chinese version, the UK model gets a faux plastic air vent on the front wing and of course different alloys, on the inside the plastics have been improved but it is unclear what interior changes have been taken over to the Chinese version yet.

The MG6 Saloon has not been a popular car in the Chinese market, when consumers think MG6 they think of the fastback version first and seem to be surprised to find the Roewe 550 in MG drag within MG dealers, I personally have never seen one on the roads in China yet.

As for pricing, both the 1.8 naturally aspirated and 1.8 Turbo units are on sale in China, the naturally aspirated model ranges from 126,800rmb to 149,800 whilst the turbo version reaches from 146,800 to 192,800rmb for 2012.
