MG which is owned by China’s leading automotive player, SAIC Motor, said the new MG GS, is the only British compact SUV in the middle-class market segment, said a statement from the company.
The new model is a trendy mix that combines sporty elegance with sharp, smooth body lines and swooping flowing shapes, it said.

“Customers will notice that our new SUV has 20 to 30 per cent more power in comparison to other competitors in the middle class market,” he added. – TradeArabia News Service
