Part 2/7:

As we geared up for the journey, it was clear that the MG3 offers a compelling hybrid setup, combining a 1.5-liter petrol engine and an electric motor with a total output of 194 horsepower. In terms of fuel economy, the MG3 claims a combined figure of 64.2 mpg, identical to that of the Swift. The journey promised to be an interesting race against expectations.

With variables like driving modes—Eco, Normal, and Sport—and external factors including temperature and tire pressure settings, the test was set to reveal the MG3’s true potential.
