Isuzu Says Aussies Don’t Want An Electric Ute — So Why Is MG Launching One Here First?

While Isuzu has officially ruled out bringing its electric D-Max to Australia—citing high costs and a limited 263km range as a tough sell for local buyers—MG is taking the exact opposite approach. The Chinese automaker has boldly chosen Australia for the global debut of its all-electric MGU9 ute, betting that a competitive $78,990 price tag and a much more practical 430km range will successfully win over the country’s ute enthusiasts.
