Morris Garages (MG) Pakistan is set to take the domestic hatchback market by storm as Javed Afridi – a key stakeholder of the automaker – has teased the price of its upcoming MG 3.
Javed Afridi has been teasing MG3 for years at this point but has never revealed the official launch date for the car.
In his latest Facebook post, Afridi shared a video that teased the exterior of the hatchback. The caption of the teaser stated “Yes. Below Rs. 2 million MG3. In Final Stages.
From the Facebook post, it is evident that MG 3 will be starting below Rs. 2 million and the hatchback will be launched in Pakistan soon.
Last year in February, Javed Afridi had sought suggestions from hatchback enthusiasts regarding the price of MG 3. Back then, Afridi had initially hinted MG 3’s price to be less than Rs. 2 million.
