AliG Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I am looking for any feedback from anyone who owns a MG VS HEV Anything either good or bad related to the car’s reliability or aftermarket service etc . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophon Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I don't think you will get much information of people's experience with the MG VS here. The model was only launched in Thailand two months ago, and they probably haven't even started delivering cars to customers yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that the most anyone could have had the car is a few weeks, they probably don't have much to say about those areas. I am surprised that you were quoted two day delivery, since MG's business model is built to order. Edited October 27, 2022 by Sophon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Dwyer Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) I have this on my short list for a change of car next year ( along with Honda HR-V, Corolla Cross and GWM Jolion ) and agree it’s too early to get any feedback about reliability. I’ve had a ZS for two years and would have to say the aftermarket service is erratic at best, still trying to solve an intermittent problem with reversing camera after 18 months !, but that could change with location. Your best bet is to join a Thai Facebook VS owners group to get the rundown, google translate struggles with some of the slang but you will get the general idea. I did see my 1st VS red plater out in the wild today and it looks really good in the two tone ( white body black roof ) model , plus I really like the interior, those 2 x 12.3” screens together works very well. Edit: there is a MG VS HEV Club group on FB but no worthwhile reports on there only adverts, still early days.

Or... Translation: the sales lied to you !.... They lied to try and get your deposit. Anyway... Don’t worry, You’ll have Khun LA on here soon enough to tell you all about MG EV’s (it may not be the exact same model... but... he’s a big fan of MG)... Their dealership experience etc even with a different model may offer an insight into what you could expect as an owner of the VS HEV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiPauly Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 I would think twice about purchasing a Chinese car. Most things made there fall apart before other items made in other countries So why not cars? Just sayin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may have been true in years past, but things have changed and, these days, lots of Chinese stuff is excellent. Just a couple of examples: Xiaomi electronics.

If given a choice, "Made in Chinese" or made elsewhere, I'll take Chinese first. Our solar system and most of our electronics comes to mind. Oh wait, is anything made 'elsewhere' ? ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
