Tråd: Første kørsel anmeldelse: MG6 SE DTi

En ny dieselmotor gør Longbridge-bygget MG6 flåde kandiderer til sidst. Dette er den MG6 diesel blev vi lovet. Når denne første af kinesisk-ejede MGs helt ny vifte ramt det britiske marked 18 måneder siden, regnes kun optimister, det ville gøre nogen virkning. Hvorfor? Fordi der ikke var mulighed for diesel, og i segmenter fokus-Mondeo marked bilen havde til formål at straddle, benzin salgskontoen for ikke meget mere end ti procent. Det kørte pænt, og vi fik at vide en diesel var i udvikling, men for nu var det næppe relevant for det britiske marked.

A new diesel engine makes the Longbridge-built MG6 a serious fleet contender at last. This is the MG6 diesel we were promised. When this first of Chinese-owned MGs all-new range hit the UK market 18 months ago, only optimists reckoned it would make any impact. Why? Because there wasnt a diesel option, and in the Focus-Mondeo market segments the car aimed to straddle, petrol sales account for not much more than ten per cent. It drove nicely, and we were told a diesel was in development, but for now it was barely relevant to the UK market.
