    7 absent at Shanghai

    Post by Tee in China on Thu Apr 28, 2011 2:37 pm

    Visited the Auto show in Shanghai this week and there were lots of Roewe 350,550 and 750's plus MG3 and 6 but no TF or 7's on show. I know production of the TF has finished but what of the 7?

    I think they may be selling off the stocks now, I suspect normal production stopped along with the old MG3SW partly due to the production lines in Nanjing working flat out on the Roewe 350, but I guess it will still be on sale until the replacement is ready. It has not been selling in large numbers anyway.

    Interestingly, production of the MG5 now seems to have been delayed until June next year, I suspect also because there is no capacity available and it is waiting for a new production line to be completed.
