MG Motors Holds Price of MG HS Trophy Despite New 2% NEV Tax
In welcome news for car buyers, MG Motors Pakistan has officially confirmed that the price of the MG HS Trophy will remain unchanged at Rs. 8,399,000, despite the introduction of a new 2% New Energy Vehicle (NEV) Levy in the federal budget for FY2025–26.
🛡️ MG Absorbs NEV Tax to Support Customers
While most automakers in Pakistan have responded to the NEV tax by raising vehicle prices, MG Motors has taken a consumer-friendly stance by absorbing the cost instead of passing it on.
-
✅ No price hike on the MG HS Trophy
-
🚗 Current ex-factory price: Rs. 8,399,000
-
📆 New price effective from July 1, 2025
The SUV was originally launched in January 2025, and its early bird discount offer ended in June. MG has now reinstated the official launch price, making it more accessible during a time of rising costs in the auto market.
🆚 Industry Trends: MG and Haval Break the Mold
MG’s decision mirrors that of Haval Pakistan, which also announced it would not increase prices and would absorb the NEV tax burden.
This move sets both companies apart from the rest of the industry, where several manufacturers have raised prices in response to the new budget levies, impacting both petrol and hybrid vehicles.
📈 What This Means for Buyers
With inflation and taxes already stretching consumer budgets, MG’s pricing decision offers:
-
🎯 Price stability amid economic uncertainty
-
💸 A chance to save on a premium hybrid SUV
-
🌍 Greater appeal for eco-conscious, value-driven buyers
📣 Final Word
At a time when automotive prices are on the rise, MG Motors is earning praise for putting customers first. The unchanged pricing of the MG HS Trophy provides a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a high-quality hybrid SUV without paying extra for recent tax changes.
