In a rather good news, MG Pakistan claimed that it has delivered 3,000+ units of MG HS and MG ZS to its customers. In a video on its official Facebook page, the company mentioned that it has delivered these cars till May 2021. It has clips of customers who received their cars across the country.
The caption of video read, MG Pakistan wrote: “MG family grows larger and stronger with more and more Pakistanis changing the meaning of modern mobility with MG.” The company also thanked Pakistanis for their love, trust and patience.
1,100 MG HS Units Arrived in Pakistan:
On May 31, we reported that MG Pakistan had imported 1,100 new units of compact crossover SUV. The vehicles arrived at Karachi port. Talking to PakWheels.com, the MG Pakistan official said that the clearance would take 7 to 10 days and then the delivery will be started across the cities in Pakistan. And it seems that the deliveries are now underway.
The official further told us that “The new price is applicable only on new bookings for the new variant, HS Exclusive, started from May 27th.”
MG HS Price Hike:
It is pertinent to mention that the company increased the prices of MG HS last week. As per a notification, the new price of CBU units of HS is PKR 5,749,000. The old price was PKR 5,449,000, meaning an increase of PKR 3 lacs. Meanwhile, the booking price is PKR 20 lacs. As per the company, the prices are only applicable for HS Exclusive.
Local Assembly Starts:
In the last week of May, the head of JW SEZ Group, the local partner of MG, Javed Afridi, announced a huge development of MG cars. In a tweet, Afridi declared: “Alhamdulillah, first locally made MG car is on the wheels.” He shared two pictures of this locally assembled vehicle.
This surely is a huge step forward for the company, as it was only selling CBU units of HS. And this has been causing delays in the delivery of these vehicles due to pandemic restrictions globally. The manufacturing of CKD means that the company will now start delivering these units, resulting in smooth delivery to its buyers.
