2025 MG QS price and specs: Kluger rival wears sub-$50k price tag
MG is launching its largest SUV yet in Australia, and its first model to offer three rows of seats Down Under.
The MG QS will be the Chinese brand's first direct rival for the popular Toyota Kluger, Hyundai Santa Fe and Kia Sorento, and will undercut all of them on price.
Orders have now opened for the QS, ahead of a local launch during winter (June-August) of this year.
The entry-level front-wheel drive Excite starts at $46,990 drive-away, though MG says this applies only until May 31, 2025. It's unclear what the price will change to after this.

For now at least, though, the MG QS has a drive-away starting price that's around $7000 lower than the base Sorento's, about $11,000 less than the base Santa Fe's, and a whopping $21,000 under the base Kluger's.
The all-wheel drive Essence variant is priced at $50,990 drive-away, also for a limited time only.
Unlike the upcoming Jaecoo J8, another similarly sized Chinese large SUV arriving imminently, the QS has a third row of seating to allow it to take on the Kluger, Sorento and Santa Fe directly.
It features a three-seat second-row bench, with an additional two seats in the rearmost row, for a total of seven seats.
The QS is slightly larger than the Kluger, measuring 17mm longer, 37mm wider and 23mm taller on a 65mm longer wheelbase.
MG's big new seven-seater is effectively a rebadged RX9 from fellow SAIC Motor Roewe. While the previous-generation model was offered in some markets outside of China as an MG – and the brand has also rebadged the LDV D90 in India as the Gloster – this is the first time MG has offered a three-row SUV in Australia.
The QS is backed by MG's 10-year, 250,000km warranty for private buyers, or seven years and 160,000km for commercial customers.
MG has yet to confirm capped-price servicing details for the QS.
The MG QS has yet to be tested by ANCAP.
Standard safety equipment across the range includes:
The Essence adds front parking sensors.
There are two variants in the MG QS lineup.
The Excite comes standard with the following equipment:
The Essence adds:
A black interior is standard for the Excite and Essence, with a Stone Beige interior a $700 option for the Essence only.
Pearl White Metallic is the standard exterior paint finish, with the following colours costing an additional $800:
All finishes are offered on both variants.

Ferrari delaying second EV due to 'zero' demand
While the first Ferrari EV is still on track to debut this year, the automaker's second all-electric model is being delayed to at least 2028. Sources at Maranello have told Reuters this second EV was initially due to be unveiled at the end of 2026, but its launch has just been pushed back for a second time, with the car now not set to appear in public until 2028 at the earliest. One of the newswire's informants said this was down to 'zero' long-term, sustained demand for a high-performance Ferrari EV. Supplied Credit: CarExpert While the Ferrari's first all-electric car — which will be unveiled later this year, and should start arriving in customers' garages from October 2026 — is a low-volume model, the second EV is planned to be a core model that will sell between 5000 and 6000 units during its five-year lifespan. Ferrari's first EV (above and below) has reportedly been styled in conjunction with Jony Ive, Apple's former chief designer. It will be larger than other Ferrari models, and have a body that's a not-quite-an-SUV-but-not-quite-a-wagon. Last spied earlier this year, the prototype has a synthetic V8 soundtrack and will make its debut on October 9, 2025. Pricing will apparently start from US$500,000 ($A770,000), and Ferrari expects to sell roughly 700 to 800 per year. Supplied Credit: CarExpert Ferrari isn't the first the car maker to change its EV plans. While electric vehicle sales globally continue to grow, demand has been lower than expected. EV adoption has also varied wildly from market to market, with Europe and China embracing the technology, while the US has been slower on the uptake. This has caused mass-market brands to adjust their plans. Some, like Volvo, are abandoning previously stated goals of going all electric by the turn of the decade, while others are investing in hybrids and plug-in hybrids to help meet interim CO2 emission rules. Less-than-expected EV demand has also affected the supercar set, with Maserati axing the electric MC20 supercar before its launch, and Lamborghini delaying its first EV until 2029.

GWM Cannon ute gets longer capped-price servicing coverage
GWM has overhauled its capped-price servicing program for Cannon ute models equipped with its 2.4-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine. It now requires servicing every 12 months or 15,000km, up from 12 months or 10,000km and aligning it with the service schedule previously confirmed for the related Tank 300 diesel SUV – not to mention various ute rivals. The change sees the Cannon now offer capped-price servicing for five years or 70,000km, up from 45,000km. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. The first scheduled visit to a GWM service centre is also now required at 12 months or 10,000km, instead of six months or 5000km. The following visit is now at 24 months or 25,000km, instead of 18 months or 15,000km. GWM says some owners may receive a service reminder indicating a first scheduled service at 5000km, as seen in the original service book. However, it will retrospectively issue revised service/warranty booklets with the new service schedule. The Cannon continues to be backed by a seven-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty, with five years of roadside assistance and capped-price servicing. The Tank 300 with the same engine, in contrast, gets seven years of roadside assistance and capped-price servicing. Here's a guide to service pricing: That results in a total service cost over five years of $2530, up from $2065 though with a greater mileage allowance. 'After extensive collaboration with our factory and R&D teams, we have successfully optimised the service schedule for these models — improving owner convenience while also lowering overall maintenance costs,' said GWM Australia and New Zealand chief operating officer John Kett. GWM hasn't outlined any changes to the service schedules for Cannons equipped with the 2.0-litre turbo-diesel four.
