MG Sets $78,990 Price for Its First Electric Ute: U9 Brings 430km Range and 3.5-Tonne Towing

MG has officially announced pricing for its first electric ute, the U9, which will start at $78,990. The vehicle is equipped with a substantial 102.2 kWh battery pack, enabling a claimed driving range of 430 kilometres. Towing capacity is rated at 3.5 tonnes, putting it in line with traditional diesel utes for heavy-duty tasks.

The U9 marks MG’s entry into the electric commercial vehicle segment, combining zero-emission driving with the practicality expected from a workhorse. With its large battery and strong towing figures, it aims to address key concerns for buyers considering an electric ute.

Full specifications and availability details are expected to be confirmed closer to launch, but the pricing positions the U9 as a competitive option in the emerging electric ute market.
