Today this group of the latest spy photos clear view of the interior, shallow depths with the trim with a white multi-function steering wheel and audio panels, into the ipod and other fashion design elements, which are conducive to this new car as soon as possible with young consumers in the open market.
MG3 is an innovative new interior color with black and white, although not the MG ZERO concept car suspension console, avant-garde electric seat adjustment, but many use the round and oval design. Air conditioning outlet and so on with white trim, U-type multi-function steering wheel, white area is very eye-catching mosaic, multifunctional button changes the traditional design, the steering wheel marked below MG3 further lock the coupe's true identity.
From the latest Ministry of Industry and directory of view, this new car will be code-named CSA7153. With the Roewe 350 model configuration the same 1.5L engine, which sets the four-cylinder models, code-named 15S4U maximum power to 80kw/6000rpm, Maximum torque also reached 135Nm/4000rpm. Manual models configured with the same five-speed MT transmission, curb mass reached 1140kg, Automatic models use a more economic AMT transmission, rather than the Roewe 350 AT 4-speed automatic transmission, curb mass 1150kg, lighter by nearly 130kg compared with the model level, which will bring more MG3 this hatchback car outstanding dynamic performance.

Does this mean Automated Manual Transmission or something similar?
The gear lever is neither manual nor conventional automatic.

Re: The New MG3
We previously reported that, the SAIC brand new small car MG 3 is expected to be listed at the end of this year, this model has recently re-exposed new spy photos, we can see more details of the configuration from the same time, the news came out, The new MG 3 after the listing, or to replace MG brand cash MG 3SW models, taking small car market.![]()
New car from the previous parameters of the exposure point of view, MG 3 body size length, width and height respectively 3999/1728/1517mm, with a wheelbase of 2520mm, compared with expected performance of the space advantages of small cars are now mainstream. The influx of people look and avant-garde interior design, I believe it better to win the young consumers.
Seen from a spy, MG 3 used the semi-independent rear suspension, this design is also more common in small cars. Power, according to the Ministry of Industry directory information to see the new car will use the same Roewe 350 15S4U the same engine displacement of 1.5L, the maximum power 80km/6000rpm, peak torque 135Nm/4500rpm, transmission will match AMT or MT to choose from.![]()
According to another report, MG 3 has completed the preparatory work prior to listing, because the current directory while waiting to enter energy-saving cars yet officially listed. The MG brand of small cars in cash MG 3SW sales model is not ideal, the new MG 3 launch vehicle is expected to replace its position in the market, we will continue to pay attention.

It looks like the prototype interior has now been replaced by a production one, still in Chinese style but it looks much better...
Also good to see some MGish colours appearing on Chinese cars!

Re: The New MG3
Must be important to note that, the SAIC three months ago, launched a code-named CSA7153MC and CSA7153AC the two MG3 models, recently declared a CSA7153MCF new models. Two series of new and old, the appearance of the main differences to reflect on the shape of the taillights. Although the two have adopted the red and white two-tone taillight design, but the new shell on the outside, have a thin red trim, and overall co-ordination body, three-dimensional feeling stronger, more dynamic coordination.
MG3's power system, the Roewe 350 will be used with the same configuration, the main carrying NSE SAIC Nanjing plant produced series of small displacement engines. To be sure, MG3 of the first models, mainly with code 15S4U, and 1.5 liters of displacement, variable valve timing naturally aspirated engine. The engine, rated output power of 80 kW / 6,000 rpm and maximum torque of 135 Nm / 4000 rpm, in the current brands, belonging to the middle and upper grades. Associated with, in addition to five-speed manual transmission, there are five-speed automated manual transmission. Provide a series of recent announcements from the indicators, and internal spy photos, can confirm that this automatic transmission, the CVT is not before or DCT type of rumors, but the most simple semi-automatic AMT models. AMT coupled with the conventional hydraulic automatic transmission compared to low cost, excellent fuel economy, but the comfort and reliability of the relatively poor.
According to SAIC early planning, MG MG3 will be listed before November this year, it seems, and will definitely bounce. Intelligence, the fastest in the end of the Guangzhou Motor Show, a large-scale production will be delayed until early next year. Through comprehensive analysis, our initial crack at the reasons. A few months ago, SAIC declared CSA7153MC and CSA7153AC MG3 two models models, has completed the preparatory work for the market, why give up the "Golden September and silver October" and at the end of the excellent opportunities it? The main reason is unable to obtain the "energy-saving products that benefit the people," the 3,000 yuan government subsidy.

I don't understand how you can judge the quality of plastic from a rather low resolution picture?
I'm also not sure that the shiny surface is the production surface, it is possible that the moulds have yet to have the texture added.

I still don't see how you can tell from the low quality image, although it is clear that they are far from cheap. I think that in real life they will be of similar quality to those in the MG550 which in last weeks review was described as "The interior is downright stunning".
