The MG U9 is the newest ute to hit the market and the U9 Explore is the entry-level model in the range.
While imposing in size - measuring 5.5m long - the U9 is looking to compete with conventionally-sized utes like the Ford Ranger and Toyota HiLux on price.
The U9 Explore is priced from $52,990, drive-away, and comes with 18-inch alloy wheels, side steps, a painted tub liner, synthetic leather seats, keyless entry and ignition and a six-speaker stereo with digital radio and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
It’s powered by a 2.5-litre, four-cylinder, turbo-diesel engine, which makes 160kW and 520Nm, and is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive system. Fuel consumption is a claimed 7.9L/100km on the combined (urban/extra-urban) cycle.
The U9 is covered by a seven-year/unlimited kilometre warranty, not MG’s usual 10-year plan for its passenger vehicles. And that requires you to service with the brand in order to extend past five years' of warranty coverage.
