Dealers overwhelmed by MG6 orders, became the latest new car sales - "The New King"



With the unique Fast-Back design, a long brand history and the Shanghai Automotive R & D manufacturing capability, the MG6 listing attracted a large amount of consumer attention, the sales are on fire.

At the beginning of February, news came from the Shanghai Automotive headquarters located in Jiading: at 40 days since the MG6 listing, consumers are treating the car enthusiastically. As at end of last month, the aggregate effective orders for the MG6 have already exceeded 10 thousand cars, in order to achieve full-year sales targets has laid a solid foundation. Meanwhile, the Shanghai Automotive also said that the Lingang port base is at full capacity in order to ensure that consumers can get cars as soon as possible. The reporter also from a single Shanghai MG dealer learned that each week has received nearly a hundred MG6 orders, also mentioned the availability date for the car is now in March. However, the dealer said it is actively liaising with the factory to strive to make cars that consumers can obtain for the Chinese New Year.

For the MG6, the 40 days, 10 thousand orders may be only a start, we have reason to believe that, by virtue of the possession of the many excellent genes, the MG6 are fully capable of success in 2010, the Shanghai Automotive and consumer to make a success. We also fully believe that as the MG6 end of the year in Europe, China's auto market will open a new page.



In the dealer, learned that the car models priced 12.88 thousand 1.8DVVT comfort version and priced at 16.68 thousand for 1.8T Elite's, which is the most popular.

MG6 1.8T model greater than the proportion of pre-booking market expectations. Orders from the national perspective, the volume of orders in January nearly a 2:1 ratio.

MG dealer, said consumers are generally great enthusiasm for to buy 1.8T models, reflecting the consumer acceptance of this product is high status.

But the availability date for the car is now in March!
So can we expect that 5,000 will be registered in March. Good news for China & UK MG

Tiger Tiger. burning bright,
In the forests of the night;
What immortal hand or eye.
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In what distant deeps or skies.
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand, dare seize the fire?

And what shoulder, & what art,
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat.
What dread hand? & what dread feet?

What the hammer? what the chain,
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp.
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?

When the stars threw down their spears
And watered heaven with their tears:
Did he smile His work to see?
Did he who made the lamb make thee?

Tiger Tiger burning bright,
In the forests of the night:
What immortal hand or eye,
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

The Tiger

The 550 is selling well, I hope the 6 does as well in the next few months so we can see more investment in the brand.

I am told that the TF is no longer being made in China - but it is not yet clear if a TF sports car replacement is very high up the agenda of the SAIC management. If that proves to be so, that would surely be a pity and a waste of a great opportunity.

Windy wrote:There has been almost no demand for the MG TF in China so production effort has been realocated to the R350 and its new engine. It has been a very useful sales tool in China though so a replacement would seem sensible once UK and other markets where it might sell are re-established but I guess that will be three years away!

No Chinese TF = No Longbridge TF, surely...

Windy wrote:But Longbridge TFs are made in Longbridge so no Chinese assembly line makes no difference.

They still have the presses and welding robots so can run off another batch of bodies.

patpending wrote:so the TF could continue at the long bridge MG Birmingham even if production stopped in Nanjing?
