MG's two-layer pricing#

MG Sales Thailand quotes two prices for every trim, simultaneously, on mgcars.com/th/promotions and in every launch press release:

Almost every historical MG price conflict is this distinction, not bad data: MG's own model pages carry both layers, while secondary press coverage and aggregators usually headline the special. Notably MG's list prices have been near-static through 2026 while the specials ratcheted upward — the real story is shrinking discounts, which only a two-layer record captures.

Launch offers vs specials. Every MG ราคาพิเศษ is a discount against an unchanged list, never a list change. Each one is one of two kinds:

• Launch offer — the special a new car or trim launched with (the "Intro / launch offer" row on each trim below). MG names some of them outright ("ราคาพิเศษช่วงเปิดตัว", IM5); the BIMS 2026 ones are MG's own Motor Show offers: "ข้อเสนอพิเศษทุกรุ่น ในงาน MOTOR SHOW 2026 … ตั้งแต่วันที่ 25 มีนาคม 2569 – 5 เมษายน 2569", at the booth or in MG's 125 showrooms — Maxus 9 V+ ฿1,799,900 from ฿1,849,900, MG4 D ฿579,900 from ฿669,900, MG4 X LR ฿699,900 from ฿749,900 (MG Sales press release via ThaiPR, 2026-03-23⁴).
• Campaign offer — every other special: the monthly promotion, show specials on cars already on sale (BIMS, Motor Expo), clearances.
• End date. An offer carries its end date when the source gives a window. For a launch offer MG gave no end date for, it is the day before the next dated price replaced it — an upper bound, marked as such on the trim. The current special carries no end date: MG re-issues it monthly and its page has stayed live past the printed window (IM6 / MGS5 EV October promotion still served 2026-11-03), so a month-end date would expire a price that is still being offered.

Verified against mgcars.com promotions⁵ (pages valid 1–31 Aug 2026), 2026-08-16.

Re-verified 2026-11-03 (IM6, MGS5 EV, Maxus 7). The promotions index page shows no prices; the per-model pages (mgcars.com/th/cars/<model>) do. Each embeds the promotion's conditions text, which names both layers per trim — "ราคาพิเศษ X บาท (จากราคาปกติ Y บาท)" — plus the validity window. On 2026-11-03 all three pages still served the 1–31 October 2026 promotion ("ตั้งแต่วันที่ 1 ตุลาคม 2569 ถึง 31 ตุลาคม 2569"); no November promotion was published yet. The price in each page's sub-model list is the list layer.

Re-verified 2026-11-10 (IM6, MGS5 EV, Maxus 7). All three pages now serve the 1–30 November 2026 promotion ("ตั้งแต่วันที่ 1 พฤศจิกายน 2569 ถึง 30 พฤศจิกายน 2569") at the same two layers as October: IM6 ฿1,349,900 / ฿1,549,900 / ฿1,749,900 from ฿1,399,900 / ฿1,599,900 / ฿1,799,900; MGS5 EV D+ / X+ / V+ ฿649,900 / ฿759,900 / ฿849,900 from ฿749,900 / ฿839,900 / ฿959,900; Maxus 7 X ฿1,299,000 from ฿1,399,000 (2-tone ฿1,319,000 from ฿1,419,000). The Maxus 7 page also still carries a 2025 block ("ราคาพิเศษ 1,399,000 … จากราคาปกติ 1,769,000"); the November conditions sit under the ฿1,399,000-list block. Checkraka's specials-as-list quotes (IM6 ฿1,749,900, Maxus 7 ฿1,299,000) are these specials, not list moves.

Trade-press trap (found 2026-11-03). Autolifethailand headlines a monthly special as "ราคาอย่างเป็นทางการ" and words a special that rises as "ปรับเพิ่ม" — which reads like a list change. Its 2026-04-23 IM6 article ("ปรับเพิ่ม 50,000 !") reads as a new standard MSRP, but the footnote on the article's Premium line gives a validity window ("มีผล 22 เมษายน – 31 พฤษภาคม 2569"). MG's own IM6 page for that same promotion (22 Apr – 31 May 2026; archived copy 2026-05-07, archive #367) names all three as ราคาพิเศษ against the unchanged launch list prices, and the Oct 2026 page still does. A trade-press price with an end date is a special.

Two legal entities, one operation

• SAIC Motor-CP Co., Ltd. — the manufacturing JV, founded 2013 (SAIC 51 % / CP 49 %). Builds MG vehicles in Thailand for domestic sale and ASEAN export. (SAIC and CP form Thai JV — chinadaily.com.cn 2012-12-10⁶)
• MG Sales (Thailand) Co., Ltd. — the distribution arm, responsible for sales, marketing, dealer network, and after-sales.

The first Thai-assembled MG6 rolled off the Chonburi line in June 2014 and went on sale 2014-08-01. (Bangkok Post — Thai-built MG6⁷)

Local plant — WHA / Hemaraj Eastern Seaboard Industrial Estate 2, Chonburi#

The MG plant is at Hemaraj (now WHA) Eastern Seaboard Industrial Estate 2 in Chonburi province — not Rayong, despite secondary sources occasionally conflating the two (the Eastern Seaboard industrial corridor spans both provinces).

• 2014: First plant opened — 30 rai, ~50,000 units/year, ฿9B investment. (Bangkok Post — MG Chon Buri plant opens⁸)
• 2017: Second, larger plant inaugurated — 437.5 rai (70 ha) at the same Hemaraj ESIE 2 site, ฿10B investment, scaling to 200,000 units/year peak capacity. (WHA — Inauguration of New SAIC Motor-CP MG Production Plant⁹)
• Designated SAIC's ASEAN regional manufacturing hub.
• BEVs built locally as of May 2026: MG4 (CKD since Nov 2023), MGS5 EV (CKD since Mar 2025), ZS EV. Cyberster, IM5, IM6, Maxus 7, Maxus 9 are CBU-China.

Verification matrix#

The single most important historical BEV in Thailand. Launched 2019-06-21 as the country's first mainstream affordable BEV at ฿1,190,000, the ZS EV has traversed two generations (Gen 1 CBU 2019-2021; Gen 1.5 facelift 2022-now), six discrete pricing eras, a battery-platform swap (44.5 kWh likely-NMC → 50.3 kWh LFP), and seven years of continuous sale. Most price-history data points of any MG model. NOT covered by the 2024-07-09 MG Lifetime Battery Warranty.

• Generation: Gen 1 (CBU 2019-2021) + Gen 1.5 facelift (2022-current)

Verification matrix#

MG ES is technically the MG EP Minorchange/facelift, rebranded as a new model line for Thailand. Confirmed by Autolifethailand⁹⁵ and Paultan⁹⁶. Globally the same vehicle is the "MG 5 Electric Wagon". NOT covered by the 2024-07-09 Lifetime Battery Warranty (excluded alongside ZS EV and EP). Single trim throughout TH life.

Range conflict — RESOLVED#

Sources cite both 412 km and 320 km. Resolution:

  • 2026-11-10: list ฿771,000 — MG's own EP Plus pages (MG TH — EP Plus¹¹⁴); no live promotion
  • Corrected 2026-11-10: this file treated the clearance as a "de-facto MSRP" at ฿469,000. ฿469,000 comes only from the SEO title of MG's English EP page; the offer was ฿469,900, for a stated window. evchu shows MG's ฿771,000 list (2026-11-10), with the clearance recorded as an ended campaign.
• Colors: Arctic White (Zigwheels lists only 1 color for 2026 EP Plus), Black Knight unverifiedfor current MY
• Successor (functional): MG ES (BIMS 2023) — though EP Plus continues to be sold as the cheaper option

Combined EP / EP Plus price-change timeline#

Price sources that disagree#

• Zigwheels also quotes ฿771,000 (on-road) for a variant it calls "EV" — the same car as EP Plus.
• checkraka quotes ฿469,900 — the June–July 2025 clearance price, still shown long after its window; read as that campaign.

Premium family electric MPV, TH launch at BIMS 2024 alongside Cyberster. Single trim (Model X) throughout TH life. Positioned class-below Maxus 9 — no captain massage / refrigerator / ambient / 12-spkr that the Maxus 9 V/V+ offers.

Price layers on 2026-11-03 (mgcars.com Maxus 7¹³², Oct 2026 promotion, still live): list ฿1,399,000 / special ฿1,299,000 (two-tone: list ฿1,419,000 / special ฿1,319,000). The list itself has come down from the ฿1,769,000 launch figure: the same page still carries its expired 11–31 Dec 2025 promotion, which reads "ราคาพิเศษ 1,399,000 บาท สำหรับรุ่น X (จากราคาปกติ 1,769,000 บาท)" (two-tone ฿1,419,000 from ฿1,789,000). Archived copies of this page date the change: the 22 Apr – 31 May 2026 promotion reads "ราคาพิเศษ 1,299,000 บาท (จากราคาปกติ 1,769,000 บาท)" (copy of 2026-05-28, archive #2546), and from the copy of 2026-06-01 (#3459) the same line reads "(จากราคาปกติ 1,399,000 บาท)", two-tone ฿1,419,000. So ฿1,399,000 was a special through May 2026 and has been the list since about 2026-06-01; the special has stayed ฿1,299,000 throughout. MG published no date for the change; the day is bracketed by the 2026-05-28 and 2026-06-01 copies.

The flagship electric MPV. CRITICAL model-relationship resolution: "Maxus 9 PLUS" is a stripped lower-priced TRIM, NOT a separate model and NOT a long-wheelbase extension. All Maxus 9 variants (PLUS, X, V, V+) share identical mechanical hardware: 90 kWh CTP battery, 180 kW motor, FWD, 540 km NEDC, 5,270 × 2,000 × 1,840 mm, 3,200 mm wheelbase. Only equipment differs. Recommendation: fold the current standalone maxus-9-plus model row into maxus-9 as a trim.

MG TH's own mg-maxus9-my26 page no longer carries PLUS in its price list — its sub-model list holds a single entry, "MG MAXUS 9 V PLUS" ฿1,849,900, and the homepage headline reads "NEW MG MAXUS 9 MY26 ราคาเริ่มต้น ฿1,849,900". PLUS therefore survives as a MY2025 carry-over: still listed at ฿1,849,000 by checkraka¹⁶³ on a 2026-08-16 capture, but not priced by MG itself. unverifiedwhether PLUS is still orderable from MG dealers, or is showroom stock only. Its status should flip to 'discontinued' the moment a dealer/press source confirms it is off the order book; absence from the MY26 page alone is not proof.

Verification matrix#

SAIC's premium EV sub-brand, 875 V architecture. Internationally marketed as "IM Presented by MG Motor" / "MG IM5" (the awkward phrase was widely mocked at launch — Carscoops calls it¹⁷³ "the most ridiculous car brand name yet"). In China this is IM L6 (智己L6 / Zhìjǐ L6) — not IM L7 (the L7 is the larger executive sedan that never reached RHD markets). The Thai IM5 is the rebadged IM L6. (Wikipedia — IM L6, "Also called MG IM5 (export)"¹⁷⁴)

The IM brand (智己汽车 / "Zhìjǐ Qìchē") is a JV of SAIC Motor (54 %), Alibaba Group (18 %), and Zhangjiang Hi-Tech (18 %), founded 2020-12 (Wikipedia — IM Motors¹⁷⁵). "IM" derives from "Intelligence in Motion". The brand was conceived as a CATL/Qualcomm-pillared, software-first competitor to Nio and Li Auto in the ~RMB 300k–500k Chinese segment, then re-pointed at export markets in 2025 under the "MG Premium" sub-brand strategy.

Lineage & platform#

• China model: IM L6 (智己L6) — debuted at Geneva Motor Show 2024-02; Chinese on-sale date 2024-05-13 (Wikipedia¹⁷⁴)
• Global rebrand: IM5 — UK on-sale 2025-07 (Electrive¹⁷⁶)
• TH model: MG IM5 — single trim (Premium Long Range RWD); on sale from BIMS 2026, 2026-03-24 (Autolifethailand²⁰)
• Platform: SAIC IM platform — same architecture as IM6 (IM LS6) and IM L7. Battery + motor + 800V SiC inverter from CATL/IM joint development.
• Architecture: 875 V peak (nominal ~751 V, marketed as "800 V" or "875 V" depending on document) — the highest-voltage architecture in any TH-market BEV as of May 2026, alongside IM6 Long Range / Performance and the Zeekr 7X. Higher voltage = higher peak DC charging at the same current limit, which is how IM advertises 396 kW DC peak / 10–80 % in <18 min.
• Origin: CBU-China only. Built at IM's Lingang plant outside Shanghai. Not on Chonburi line.

Full specifications

WLTP vs NEDC resolution — load-bearing

Thai press uniformly publishes the 860 km NEDC figure (Headlightmag, Autolifethailand, Thairath, Iphonemod all cite this). NEDC over-states real-world range by 25–35 %. Multiple primary UK sources confirm the WLTP figure for the same SKU (100 kWh, 300 kW RWD):

WLTP range: 710 km (round trip from 441 mi × 1.609344). High confidence — three independent UK sources agree exactly on 441 mi. The 860 km figure is NEDC, not WLTP.

Verification matrix#

The SUV counterpart to IM5 — same IM platform, same Lingang factory, same SiC inverters. In China this is IM LS6 (智己LS6) — a coupe-SUV that competes with the Tesla Model Y and Xpeng G6 segment.

Same JV story as IM5 (SAIC 54 % / Alibaba 18 % / Zhangjiang Hi-Tech 18 %). Bigger volume seller than IM5 in TH — the IM6 was first to market (March 2025) and has the lower entry price (฿1.35M vs IM5's ฿1.50M), so the IM6 set the "MG goes premium" narrative.

Lineage & platform#

• China model: IM LS6 — launched 2023-10 (Wikipedia — IM LS6¹⁹⁵)
• Platform: SAIC IM platform — same as IM5 / IM L6 / IM L7; marketed in TH as "800 V Dual SiC Platform"
• Architecture (trim-dependent):
  • Premium RWD: 400 V LFP
  • Long Range RWD + Performance AWD: 875 V NMC
• Origin: CBU-China (Lingang plant). Not assembled in Chonburi.
• Export sequence (per Wikipedia): TH 2025-03-24 → AU 2025-06-12 → NZ 2025-08-22 → SG 2025-09-25 → UK 2025-09 (deliveries)

Lineup events / timeline#

Naming. MG's own page calls the middle trim "Premium Long Range" (sub-model "รุ่น Premium Long Range"); trade press says "Long Range RWD". evchu keeps the trade-press name (long-range-rwd). Zigwheels lists only "Premium" (฿1,399,900, its quoted price is the list) and "Performance" (฿1,799,900). Its "Premium" is the Premium RWD (premium-rwd), not the Long Range. The Zigwheels page is titled "MG IM6 2026", but MG Thailand has not announced a model-year update: the Oct 2026 spec table on mgcars.com matches the 2025 launch cars.

Naming / launch date clarification — two correct dates#

The IM6 has two valid launch dates widely cited:

• 2025-03-18 — date of the official press announcement with pricing (Motorist, Autolifethailand, MarkLines all cite this)
• 2025-03-24 — date of the on-sale start at BIMS 2025 (Wikipedia IM LS6 export table, CnEVPost)

This page treats 2025-03-18 as the launch date (the announcement is the actionable event for price intelligence; the BIMS reveal is a marketing event 6 days later).

Performance power discrepancy note

MG's own Thai spec table (checked 2026-11-03) gives the motors separately: front 200 kW (271 hp) / 302 Nm, rear 372 kW (505 hp) / 500 Nm — 572 kW / 776 hp summed. evchu keeps 580 kW until the combined system figure is confirmed unverified.

Thai press uniformly cites 778 hp (580 kW) for combined motor output; UK/EU sources (EVKX, EV-Database, Carwow) uniformly cite 752 hp (553 kW). Both refer to the same dual-motor SKU. The discrepancy likely reflects different measurement standards — TH spec quotes Chinese-market peak (peak-of-peak / 10-second burst) while EU spec quotes WLTP-protocol continuous-peak. evchu uses the TH figure (580 kW / 778 hp), since that's what the Thai customer is shown at the dealer.

Verification matrix#

Launched 2026-06-17 as MG Thailand's new cheapest BEV, undercutting the MG4. Official nameplate is MG URBAN / "New MG Urban" — no "4". Headlightmag used mg4-urban in its pre-launch URLs and some aggregators still carry "MG4 Urban"; the production name has no numeral. Three FWD trims, two battery sizes, CATL LFP throughout.

Eligible under the EV 3.5 measure. Warranty: 4 yr / 120,000 km vehicle + lifetime battery & motor warranty.

Trim ladder & MSRP timeline#

All prices special / list — see "MG's two-layer pricing".

The launch prices are the launch offer (until 2026-07-31 — the 1 Aug article below says the new specials take effect "ตั้งแต่ 1 สิงหาคม 2026"); the ฿549,900 / ฿619,900 / ฿729,900 specials after it are MG's monthly promotion (campaign offers). The launch MSRP is the list. The launch article prints only the offer prices; the list is first seen on MG's 1–31 Aug page and is taken as the list at launch because MG quotes both layers from launch and no list change was reported [◐].

• 2026-06-17 — launch. "Standard FWD 42.8 kWh 529,900 บาท / MAX FWD 53.9 kWh 599,900 บาท / ULTRA FWD 53.9 kWh 709,900 บาท" — Autolifethailand²²⁰
• 2026-08-01 — +฿20,000 on every trim, end of the launch special. "มีผลตั้งแต่ 1 สิงหาคม 2026 เป็นต้นไป … รุ่น Standard จาก 529,900 เป็น 549,900 บาท | รุ่น Max จาก 599,900 เป็น 619,900 บาท | รุ่น ULTRA จาก 709,900 เป็น 729,900 บาท" — Autolifethailand²²¹
• 2026-08-16 — confirmed live on the official 1–31 Aug 2026 Early Bird promo page: ฿549,900 / ฿619,900 / ฿729,900 against ราคาปกติ ฿579,900 / ฿649,900 / ฿749,900 — mgcars.com²²²

This was the only MG line to move on 1 Aug 2026. IM5, MG4 MY2026 and MGS5 EV Plus all held their July specials into August; the 2026 increases otherwise clustered in April (MG4 +฿10–20k and MGS5 EV Plus +฿30k on 11 Apr; IM5 and IM6 +฿50k on 22 Apr).
