In Australia this mg5 can be bought with a more powerful 1.5 Turbo engine for around the same we have to pay for the none turbo spec. And yeah I know car tax in Malaysia is high because of the petrol subsidy. Oh wait a minute ron97 no more subsidy ron95 soon also going to disappear for some people. Who know the government will reduce car tax at the same time because you can no longer make the excuse car tax is high because of petrol subsidy. But I guess the knife only cuts on one side
@lambolim2178 well I remember many time to hear our car tax is high because of fuel subsidy. And by the way local car brand? Proton is half owned by Geely don't know about Perodua
@@willidevegt are u 00s kid? Cuz car tax has been implemented for a long time proton wasn’t a China brand back then. I don’t know how petrol subsidy has direct relation to car tax, the tax is to encourage local assembly and we got petrol subsidy cuz we are petrol producing country.
@lambolim2178 I am from 1969 I live in Malaysia since 2008 and I am a Frisian from the netherlands. My mentioning about the car tax is because I saw this commands many times in forums before. And it made sense to me. If you tell me the tax is to protect local made cars in a way that doesn't make sense to me. Why are proton cars not cheaper? Specially now with the coming of the eMAS which the Chinese equivalent is roughly 30% cheaper in China plus it has more tech than the eMAS. Why is the extra tax on foreign cars not being used for what it is meant for to make local produce cheaper? Since in 2008 when I came to Malaysia I bought 2x a new proton they where not that bad to me as some people like to mention BUT compared to foreign car price in let's say EU the proton in Malaysian market is way over priced and always has been overpriced. Let's call proton the people's car which is volkswagen in germany but a volkswagen for German people gives you better price vallue than proton in Malaysia and now you tell me the high tax on foreign cars is to protect local produced that makes no sense to me since local produced cars are not being made cheaper from that tax and like said before just look at the eMAS in China it is roughly 30% cheaper with better / more tech. Coming back to German cars where the tax is much higher where labour is much higher where production cost is much higher and still a volkswagen Opel or Ford price is compareble to proton price in Malaysia Than there must be something very wrong with almost 40 years of Malaysian production isn't it? And I can understand a government trying to help local production of cars but do we still need to suffer after the government tax foreign cars for now nearly 40 years? I think if local production still not able to do after 40 years they will be never able to do
Thing to do to attracted and trusted are after sales and services examples service centre and spare parts shall be establised and availables in all states..
No one talks about the safety issues. I've asked so many times. Not a single motor journalist has answered. Something fishy. Same with all Chinese cars.
Not sure why u keep mentioning this car is a 1.5L. The vios and city have a 1.5L engine as well but they drive so so so much better . Just sayla this car has a terrible drivetrain
in terms of design, the front facia is totally wasted on that rear. The car looks really good from the front and by the time you reach the rear end, it falls flat. Yes design is subjective, but i think a honda citys rear looks much better compared to this.
Design wise, the only good thing about Honda City is the rear design. All others fall short against this, S70 and even Vios. Overall, this car looks way better than City.
Good looks let down with a terrible engine and gearbox. Unrefined and totallly no power at all. Already test driven this car. Interior uses same plastics as a saga. Steering is taken from Volkswagen but the fake leather used is terrible.After test drive this, went to test Honda City which was a dream to drive. Straight booked city
Very good skin/cosmetics but unfortunately shiitty drive train, bad fuel consumption and very big question mark in safety! Very China Chinese, beautiful/rich on the outside, sub standard at the inside.
excellent presentation ... look forward to more ....👍

Is car tax a result of petrol subsidy? I thought it was to protect the local car brand

Dont complicate issue. The tax is there for them to profit. The rest are just excuses to justify their hunger
Well, more competition is definitely welcomed. I would want to test drive it, to compare with the city, vios and almera.

The meter is similar to ketam ones. so it's feels a lot better to see la imho
How did steering wheel from VW Golf Mk6 landed here in the MG?
Still nice tho, timeless if you will.
SAIC is Volkswagen's partner in China, and they have been for a very, very long time.

@krishnachettiar safety? it's depends on driver actually..
@@MR_RASH bollocks. We want to know of it's ncap test results, handling, body rigidity, crumple zones etc. Do you know anything about cars though?

He’s Explain very well.
Hi bos .rebate 7k sampai bila ?
Is S70 expensive than mg5?
I hope they bring in MG7
Is it larger than S70
Hope MG will learn from all the comments about the CVT engine and change it to their DCT engine and remove the sunroof instead to cut cost.

Nice and beautiful car but it is too low for 180cm above passenger at the rear seat like new Toyota vios.
Why don't you compare the maintenance of this car with toyota, honda and the rest of the 1.5 cc?
