Anticipated by many who were able to see the MG Motor models in other markets in Europe and especially their prices, the brand made its official debut under the tutelage of new importer Quantum Auto Max.
As Economica.net wrote since mid-November, the MG brand aims, like Dacia, to sell models with the lowest prices in the market segments in which they operate. Romania is the 23rd European market and the 9th country in the center and east of the continent where the MG Motor brand has established representatives or importers.
The MG models will be available in Romania through the importer Quantum Auto Max, which has already concluded contracts with 23 local dealers. According to the importer’s officials, the network will increase in the next period.
The range of models sold in Romania, characterized by accessibility, consists of the MG ZS, MG HS and MG4 models. In the future, the Cyberster, MG5 and Marvel R models will join the range. As the brand will be 100 years old next year, the reference model, created especially for this event, the Cyberster electric roadster, will be launched in the summer of 2024, including in Romania .
All MG cars benefit from a seven-year “Triple 7 Care” warranty, which includes seven years of free European roadside assistance and seven years of free annual technical inspections. Attention, technical inspections should not be confused with overhauls.
The most affordable model from the current MG Motor offer in Romania, the ZS subcompact SUV, enters the market in the same segment as the Dacia Duster. The vehicle has a length of 4,323 mm, a width (with mirrors) of 2,084 mm and a height of 1,644 mm. The capacity of the trunk is 448 liters. For propulsion, two options are available, a normally aspirated 1.5-liter gasoline-powered engine that develops 106 hp and a turbocharged 1-liter engine that provides 111 hp. While the naturally aspirated engine is only available with a five-speed manual gearbox, the turbo can be ordered with either a manual or an automatic, both with six speeds.
The competitive MG ZS price range starts at 17,950 euros (VAT included) for the Excite version equipped with the 1.5 liter engine and goes up to 22,600 euros for the Exclusive version with the 1.0 T-GDi engine and six-speed automatic gearbox .
The ZS’s big brother, the HS SUV, can be ordered with both a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a plug-in hybrid powertrain (PHEV). Thus, the cheapest MG HS (1.5 T-GDi, 6-speed manual gearbox, Explore equipment) costs, including VAT, 23,300 euros, while the eHS 1.5 T-GDi PHEV, Explore equipment) has a price of 39,100 Of euro.
In the case of the MG4 electric model – a competitor to models like the Renault Megane-E-Tech Electric or the Volkswagen ID.3 – the price list starts at 31,400 euros, VAT included, (51 kWh battery) and rises to 35,900 euros for the version with a 64 kWh battery.
Comparing correctly, with similar models on the market, but also with comparable powers or batteries, the competitiveness of the prices with which the MG brand arrived in Romania can be clearly observed.
