MG One Introduced In The Middle East

To further cement its position in the list of top six carmakers in the Middle East, MG Motor has introduced a new model. Called MG One, it’s an SUV underpinned by an all-new, in-house developed platform – SIGMA (SAIC Intelligent Global Modular Architecture). Courtesy of its flexibility, it can accommodate various types of powertrains, including standalone internal combustion, hybrid, plug-in hybrid and all-electric.

The MG One is available in three trim levels, all powered by a combination of a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine and a seven-step CVT. With 181hp/285Nm on tap, the SUV can hit 100kmph from a standstill in 8.8 seconds and reach 195kmph flat out.

Features? As you’d expect, the list will vary depending on the variant chosen. The fully-loaded version will pack stuff like a panoramic sunroof, 19-inch alloy wheels, wireless mobile charger, LED headlamps, powered front seats, a 60:40 split rear seat, a 7-inch digital instrument cluster and a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system. The SUV also packs Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility, a 360-degree monitor, adaptive cruise control, push-button start, hill descent control and an electric parking brake. Some active and passive safety features include six airbags, Blind Spot Monitoring, Automatic Emergency Braking and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert.
