After years of promotions and teasers, MG Pakistan is ready to launch three much-anticipated models in Pakistan. The good news arrived just today when Syed Asif Ahmed, the MG Motors General Manager spoke with an English newspaper and shared this vital information with the world.
While Javed Afridi has teased us with news, pictures, videos, and information about all the upcoming cars by the brand, he has yet to make an announcement regarding the release date of any of the vehicles that he shared via his Twitter page with his followers and fans.
