However, if you happen to live in China, there’s a new contender for the title of the most affordable zero-emissions convertible.

However, MG also offers other models, including the small and affordable MG3. Spy photos have emerged, indicating that the automaker is currently testing the next-generation version of the MG3.

The current MG3 model is quite old, with its second generation originally debuting back in 2011. Although it has undergone two facelifts, the latest one being in 2018, these minor updates can only do so much to maintain its freshness. Therefore, the upcoming next-generation model will bring about a completely new exterior design, at the very least.
