Campaign window and covered models

MG Motor Australia's current offers page lists deals across selected new and demonstrator vehicles sold between 1 November and 31 December 2026 and delivered in the same window, at participating MG dealers and while stocks last. The advertised drive-away prices apply without any options and cover models including the MG3, MG ZS, MG4 EV and MG4 EV Urban, MG5, MG HS, MGS5 EV, MGS6 EV, MG QS and the MGU9 utility range. 1

The drive-away figure for new vehicles includes 12 months registration, 12 months compulsory third-party insurance, the maximum dealer delivery charge and estimated stamp duty, according to MG's published disclaimer. For selected demonstrators, it instead covers the balance of registration and the balance of CTP. MG states that buyers should confirm final pricing quotations with an authorised MG dealer. 1

Headline pricing on MG4 EV Urban and MGU9

MG advertises the MG4 EV Urban Essence 43 at a drive-away price of $29,990, down from $31,990, and the Essence 54 at $32,990, down from $34,990, both with a $2,000 cashback. Booran Motors in Melbourne lists the MG4 EV Urban in Essence 43 and Essence 54 grades, with claimed specifications including 43 kWh and 54 kWh battery capacities, DC charging of 82 kW and 87 kW respectively, and up to 405 km of WLTP range for the 54 kWh version. 15

The MGU9 utility range carries a $1,000 cashback that MG says is combinable with a $2,000 trade-in bonus. Advertised drive-away pricing is $51,990 for the MGU9 Explore, $54,990 for the Explore X, $56,990 for the Black Edition and $59,990 for the Explore Pro. MG's trade-in bonus terms require the trade-in vehicle to be unencumbered, with eligibility and trade-in value determined by the participating dealer. 1

Cashback schedule and plate clearance

MG's published cashback schedule ranges from $500 to $7,000 depending on model and model year. The largest cashback applies to the MG HS SUPER HYBRID: $6,000 on the Excite grade and $7,000 on the Essence grade for MY25/26 vehicles, which are advertised at drive-away prices of $42,990 and $45,990 respectively. A separate 2025 build-year plate clearance adds further cashback on select new 2025 build models, up to $8,000 on the HS SUPER HYBRID 25 build. 1

Cashback offers are redeemed at the point of sale as a deduction from the original purchase price and are not redeemable for cash, according to MG's terms. Offers are not combinable with any other offer, with the stated exception that the MGU9 cashback can be combined with the applicable $2,000 trade-in bonus only. 1

Eligibility, buyer exclusions and dealer role

MG's offer terms exclude fleet, government and rental buyers, and the cashback terms additionally exclude hire car buyers. MG Motor reserves the right to modify, extend or withdraw the offers in its sole discretion. The campaign covers new vehicles and selected demonstrators; demonstrator drive-away pricing reflects the balance of registration and CTP rather than a full 12 months. 1

The offers run through participating authorised MG dealers rather than directly from MG Motor. Ferntree Gully Automotive Group in Victoria, which trades as an MG dealer, publishes its motor car trader licence number as LMCT 12131 on its website. MG's own disclaimer states that dealers are not agents of MG Motor Australia and have no authority to bind the company by any express or implied undertaking or representation, so final pricing quotations rest with each authorised dealer. 14

Context: the shifting offer calendar and the UK comparison

The November-December window replaces MG's prior monthly rounds. Ferntree Gully MG's own offers page carried an October 2026 campaign, sold and delivered between 1 and 31 October 2026, with a comparable but narrower cashback schedule. MG's homepage meanwhile displayed a September-2026 offer set, indicating the company refreshes these terms roughly monthly and that pricing and combinability rules change between rounds. 241

The structure differs from MG's United Kingdom promotions. Dicksons of Inverness, a UK MG dealer, advertised Black Friday 2025 offers based on 48-month Personal Contract Purchase finance at 6.9 percent APR representative through Santander Consumer (UK) PLC trading as MG Motor Financial Services, with discounts such as £7,545 off the MG4 Trophy Long Range. Those are UK-market finance-based offers with different conditions and should not be read as Australian pricing or terms; no equivalent Australian finance conditions appear in the current Australian campaign terms. 31
