MG has announced an industry leading 10-year / 250,000km warranty but it doesn’t apply to fleet buyers. While at the same time dropping the price on a range of electric vehicles which will have an impact on residual values for fleets that are trying to ramp up their EV transition plans.
MG Motor’s Chief Commercial Officer, Giles Belcher, said brand confidence was a top concern for new-car buyers, and highlighted that a longer warranty period can assist with this.
“If you’re looking for value and peace of mind from a new car purchase, the length and quality of the factory warranty should be as important as the horsepower. We think that our new 10 year warranty for EV, PHEV, Hybrid and petrol range is the best and strongest in market.”
“We are listening to our customers. We do think a longer warranty is more attractive, and it also reiterates trust in our cars, particularly our EV range which now starts at $34,990 Drive Away thanks to the latest campaign we’re running on our ZS EV Excite as well as the MSRP reduction on our entire MG4 range.”
“From August, every new MG vehicle purchased in Australia, from the MG3 to the HS, MG4 and more will be covered by what we believe is the strongest factory warranty in the business.”
“MG’s 10-year warranty delivers unmatched peace of mind and ensures that you are fully supported on every journey. When it comes time for our customers to upgrade their car, we want them to turn to us first. We have a stack of great product in market and more on its way, so we want people to try us sooner than later,” Mr Belcher said.
In addition to this monumental announcement, the cost of getting behind the wheel of an electric vehicle (EV) is set to go down for hundreds of thousands of people after MG Motor Australia made a decision to make EV more affordable than ever before.
With the introduction of a national driveaway price campaign on the MG ZS EV Excite, MG Motor Australia’s Chief Executive Officer, Peter Ciao said MG is once again providing the best choice for Australian’s to make the switch to EV motoring.
“MG has been leading the charge with attainable electric vehicles since the launch of the local award-winning ZS EV and MG4, with reduced nationwide drive away pricing on some of our range Australia wide, we maintain our leadership position in this space.”
“MG is putting customers first by ensuring all road users can access a wide range of affordable zero emission vehicles thanks to a special National Driveaway Price Campaign on our ZS EV Excite at a very affordable $34,990 Driveaway (01/08/24), during the month of August” he said
