Most Helpful Review

Extremely poor engine & clutch

I bought this car in 2020 and never imagined it to have a higher maintenance cost than a luxury car. The engine, clutch, and gear problems are persistent. The service team will never discuss the service history of your car, rather just mint money by making invoices. I have spent nearly 2L on the car on these issues and yet they say the clutch is a consumable part bound to be changed every 6 months. MG Motors you need to up the game to survive in India.

Good featured car

All are good Pros: driving is very smooth, boot space, handling. Sprint variant is value for Money, getting all options which are needed. Cons: Mileage in the city, back seat thigh support
