Javed Afridi is back with a fresh tweet, and there are zero numbers of guessing the subject of that tweet. It seems like Afridi enjoys tweeting about MG3, a car that we have been waiting for don't know how long. Afridi has tweeted again and again about this hatchback for the last couple of years, asking about the potential price, the possible launch, or his favorite question, "Are you ready for MG3?" We have lost count of how many times he has asked us this question, and it has become kind of redundant. If MG Pakistan wants to launch this car, just do it. There is no use in teasing repeatedly. And it feels like ages ago when Afridi told us that MG would launch MG3 for under Rs. 2 million because we don't think it would be possible under current situation of the country and auto industry.  In his latest tweet about the car, Afridi once again asked us: "Pakistan are you ready? #MG3" And he shared a photo of the car in yellow colour. https://twitter.com/JAfridi10/status/1580221932687216640 Is MG3 in Future Line up?  Last year, MG Pakistan displayed some cars as its future lineup; interestingly, MG 3 was not among them. Furthermore, MG has never officially acknowledged that they are planning to launch this hatchback in Pakistan. Although Javed Afridi is the poster boy for MG Pakistan, he and the company seem to have completely different directions. In August this year, Afridi tweeted that MG3 is "coming soon," and in March, he claimed that locally assembled MG3, MG5, and MG Gloster would be launched soon. But nothing has happened so far, and it seems highly likely in the near future. Anyway, here are the salient specs and features of MG3 in the global market. MG 3 is a 1500cc subcompact hatchback. The car is available in the international market in its 2nd generation. Its 1.5-liter engine comes with a 5-speed manual and a 4-speed automatic transmission. The car has a sharp look and a set of premium features, such as: Cruise Control 8″ touchscreen infotainment screen Rear Parking Sensors Six Airbags Emergency Braking Assistance Hill Hold Control Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TYPS) What do you think is why Afridi asks us about MG3 repeatedly?

جاوید آفریدی ایک تازہ ٹویٹ میں ایک بار پھر MG 3 کی بات کی ہے۔ جس کے بعد اب ایسا لگتا ہے کہ آفریدی ایم جی تھری کے بارے میں ٹویٹ کرنے سے لطف اندوز ہو رہے ہیں، ایک ایسی کار جس کا ہم ایک لمبے عرصے سے انتظار کر رہے ہیں۔ جاوید آفریدی پچھلے دو سالوں سے اس ہیچ بیک کے بارے میں بار بار ٹویٹ کر رہے ہیں، جس میں وہ گاڑی کی ممکنہ قیمت، لانچ کے بارے میں پوچھ رہے ہیں کہ کیا آپ MG3 کے لیے تیار ہیں؟ یہ ہمیں بھی اب یاد نہیں ہے کہ جاوید آفریدی نے اب تک کتنی بار ہم سے یہ سوال پوچھا لیا ہے اور اب اس کی اہمیت بالکل ختم ہو چکی ہے۔ اگر ایم جی پاکستان اس کار کو لانچ کرنا چاہتا ہے تو بس کر دے۔ بار بار ایک ہی سوال پوچھنے سے بات کی اہمیت کو شدید ٹھیس پہنچتیی ہے، اج سے دو سال قبل جاوید آفریدی نے ہمیں بتایا تھا کہ ایم جی پاکستان MG3 بیس لاکھ سے کم قیمت روپے سے کم میں لانچ کرے گی اور اب ہمیں ایسا نہیں لگتا کیونکہ ہمیں نہیں لگتا کہ یہ ملک اور آٹو انڈسٹری کی موجودہ صورتحال میں ممکن ہو گا۔ کار کے بارے میں اپنی تازہ ترین ٹویٹ میں آفریدی نے ایک بار پھر ہم سے پوچھا: “کیا آپ تیار ہیں؟ اور اس نے ٹویٹ میں پیلے رنگ میں کار کی تصویر شیئر کی۔ https://twitter.com/JAfridi10/status/1580221932687216640 کیا MG3 مستقبل میں لانچ کی جا سکتی ہے؟ پچھلے سال، ایم جی پاکستان نے کچھ کاریں دکھائیں جو کہ مستقبل میں لانچ کی جا سکتی تھیں۔ دلچسپ بات یہ ہے کہ ایم جی 3 ان میں شامل نہیں تھا۔ مزید برآں، ایم جی نے کبھی بھی باضابطہ طور پر یہ تسلیم نہیں کیا کہ وہ اس ہیچ بیک کو پاکستان میں لانچ کرنے کا منصوبہ بنا رہے ہیں۔ اگرچہ جاوید آفریدی ایم جی پاکستان کے پوسٹر بوائے ہیں، لیکن ایسا لگتا ہے کہ ان کی اور کمپنی کی سمت بالکل مختلف ہے۔ اس سال اگست میں، آفریدی نے ٹویٹ کیا کہ MG3 "جلد آرہا ہے" اور مارچ میں، انہوں نے دعویٰ کیا کہ مقامی طور پر اسمبل شدہ MG3 ، MG5، اور MG Gloster جلد ہی لانچ کی جائیں گی۔ لیکن ابھی تک کچھ نہیں ہوا ہے، اور مستقبل قریب میں اس کا بہت زیادہ امکان لگتا ہے۔ بہرحال، یہاں عالمی مارکیٹ میں MG3 کی نمایاں خصوصیات یہ ہیں۔ MG 3 ایک 1500 سی سی سب کومپیکٹ ہیچ بیک ہے۔ یہ گاڑی عالمی مارکیٹ میں اپنی دوسری جنریشن میں دستیاب ہے۔ اس کا 1.5 لیٹر انجن 5 سپیڈ مینوئل اور 4 سپیڈ آٹومیٹک ٹرانسمیشن کے ساتھ آتا ہے۔

The non-issuance of Letter of Credit (LCs) for import of spare parts and the current flood situation have create issues of supply chain for MG Pakistan. There were social media reports suggesting that the MG car owners are not getting transmission oil, while other spare parts are absent from the market. So, to address the issue, MG Pakistan released a statement with caption "Tough times don't last." In the statement, the company said that 2022 has been a challenging year for the world. "Certain factors have caused a delay in clearance of parts at the port," MG said. It further said that not only MG, other automotive brands are facing the same issue. Reasons/Fact for Delay  As per MG, these are the major factors causing delay: Spare parts and other essential items are awaiting clearance at Karachi port Unprecedented floods have caused delays in inland transportation The company has assured its customers that it will re-strategize to allow stock availability at all dealerships. Meanwhile, our sources have told us that the issue of LCs is resolving as State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has opened them for spare parts. "But current main issue is of transportation," the source said. It added that the trucks are stuck at Sindh Highway for 6-7 days due to flooding in Indus River. Earlier today, we told you that Pak Suzuki has extended the non-production days in September. The company has taken the decision due to hurdles in import of CKD kits by State Bank of Pakistan (SBP). The company will remain its plant shut for three times during this month. Hopefully, the issue of spare parts for MG Pakistan will resolve soon and people will get accessories and parts for their cars. What is your take on shortage of MG spare parts? Are you one of the affected? Please share your thoughts in the comments.
