MG U9 Reviews

Australia gets another ute and this time it's from MG, but does it deliver enough of the goods for this loaded segment?

The MG U9 Explore Pro is the hero model in the Chinese brand’s new ute line-up. Boasting a generous list of creature comforts and some clever features not available on the other variants, the Explore Pro is clearly targeting the premium ute buyer.

If you’re looking for a ute that can serve in the role of family transport the MG U9 Explore X is that kind of machine.

The MG U9 is the newest ute to hit the market and the U9 Explore is the entry-level model in the range.

MG wants to become one of the most popular brands in Australia - which means it needs a ute. The Chinese maker has taken assistance from its sister-brand, LDV, to rush the all-new U9 dual-cab ute into the market. But is it a case of too much too soon? Or is it the right ute at the right price? We drive it to find out if the U9 has what it takes to propel MG to the top.
