    MG’s 10-Year Warranty Update: What It Means for New Buyers at Tynan MG Sutherland banner

    As one of the fastest-growing automotive brands in Australia, MG has recently updated the terms of its 10-year/250,000km warranty, impacting all newly-registered MG vehicles from July 1, 2025. If you're planning to purchase your next car from Tynan MG Sutherland, here's everything you need to know to maximise your warranty coverage.

    Servicing Requirements for MG's 10-Year Warranty

    Previously, MG customers enjoyed the headline-grabbing 10-year warranty without strict servicing restrictions. However, in line with competitors like Nissan and Mitsubishi, MG has now revised its policy. From July 1, 2025, to qualify for the full 10-year/250,000km warranty, your MG must be serviced exclusively at an authorised MG dealership, such as Tynan MG Sutherland.

    If services are conducted outside the official MG dealer network, coverage will default to seven years with unlimited kilometres, aligning more closely with other mainstream brands.

    How MG’s Warranty Compares

    MG still offers one of the strongest base warranties in the industry:

    • MG (all models except U9): 10 years/250,000km with dealer servicing; 7 years/unlimited km without
    • Nissan: 10 years/300,000km with dealer servicing; 5 years/unlimited km without
    • Mitsubishi: 10 years/200,000km with dealer servicing; 5 years/100,000km without

    In contrast, several brands like Jaecoo, Chery, and Kia continue to offer unconditional warranties without servicing clauses, though typically with shorter durations.

    Special Case: MG U9 Ute Warranty

    The upcoming MG U9 ute comes with different terms:

    • 7 years/200,000km with MG dealer servicing
    • 5 years/unlimited kilometres if serviced elsewhere

    This is comparable to its platform sibling, the LDV Terron 9, which allows external servicing without impacting warranty coverage—an important distinction for buyers who want more flexibility.

    No Changes for Existing MG Owners

    If you purchased your MG and it was registered before July 1, 2025, or took delivery after that date under the previous terms, your warranty remains unchanged. The update only applies to vehicles first registered on or after July 1, 2025.

    For commercial users – including those using their MG for rideshare, delivery, or other business purposes – warranty coverage remains at seven years/160,000km, and the new dealer-servicing clause does not apply.

    MG’s Statement on the Change

    MG Australia describes the change as a “refreshed warranty offering” that provides “exceptional value, more confidence, flexibility, and long-term support”. While it offers extended coverage for those who stay within the official network, it marks a shift from the previously more flexible terms.

    MG also highlights its commitment to servicing standards, noting that even if customers choose external servicing, it must still meet MG Motor engineering specifications to qualify for basic warranty support.
