MG Motor South Africa has introduced model year updates to the MG3 range, bringing enhanced connectivity, design refinements and usability improvements. The changes strengthen the appeal of the MG3, which has consistently been one of the brand’s most popular models.
What is it?
The latest updates are not a facelift but a series of enhancements across the line-up, including the MG3 Hybrid+. These changes aim to improve everyday usability and modernise the technology offering.
Exterior:
The MG3 now offers two new colour options, Medal Silver and Andean Grey, expanding the palette for buyers seeking greater personalisation. The Luxury derivatives also benefit from upgraded digital 360-degree camera technology, replacing the previous analogue system with sharper image quality and improved visibility.
Interior:
Inside, connectivity has been improved with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto available across the range, removing the need for cables. Luxury models gain two new USB Type-C ports in the front central console, one full-function and one charging-only, enhancing device compatibility. The digital 360-degree camera system further improves driver confidence, while the cabin retains its practical layout and user-friendly design.
Powertrains:
The MG3 line-up continues with its established petrol and hybrid options. The range includes manual and CVT derivatives, with the Hybrid+ positioned as the flagship. The updates focus on technology and usability rather than mechanical changes, ensuring the MG3 remains efficient and accessible.
Price and warranty:
Pricing starts at R269 900 for the MG3 1.5 MT Comfort, rising to R309 900 for the CVT Comfort, R359 900 for the CVT Luxury+ and R469,900 for the Hybrid+. All models are sold with a five-year/150,000 km warranty.
