CarTell take

We haven't driven the U9 EV yet. On paper, confirm the final Australian spec and warranty, as MG still shows an overseas model. Work out your real range when towing, and check where fast chargers sit on your usual routes.

Why consider it

  • On paper it has the longest range of any electric ute in Australia, 430 km WLTP from a 102.2 kWh battery, and it matches diesel utes with a 3,500 kg braked tow rating.

What to know

  • It costs about $25,000 more than the top diesel U9, and the 685 kg payload makes it a lifestyle ute more than a work truck.
  • Towing near 3.5 tonnes will cut that 430 km a long way.

Who it suits

Buyers who use a dual cab as the family car, can charge at home, and want electric running costs with a full 3,500 kg tow rating.

Look at the alternatives if you tow long distances away from fast chargers, need more than 685 kg payload, or want the diesel U9 for about $25,000 less. A plug-in hybrid like the BYD Shark 6 avoids range anxiety.
