    First place I've read this!

    I note if the 6 is from Thailand and there is a March launch, that unless the Malaysia launch is by end Feb, Australia would end up as Thailand's first export market.

    Note the sorry saga of the original attempt...

    MG distribution will return to SAIC from Chinese-owned Longwell Motor, which launched the medium-sized MG6 in Australia in 2013, but has failed to progress plans to establish a national dealer network and add the MG3 mini to the line-up.
    SAIC Motor Australia will offer both a facelifted MG6 and the MG3 in 2016 and add the 2.0-litre turbo-petrol GS in Q3. Pricing and warranty back-up is expected to be far more competitive than during Longwell's administration, and a dealer network will finally be established.
    It will be the second brand after Great Wall Motors SUV brand Haval to establish a fully-owned subsidiary to handle distribution in Australia.

    the Chinese-produced, British-developed MG range of vehicles is finally set for a proper launch with a three-vehicle range in Australia on October 1.

    The date and rollout plans have been confirmed to the freshly appointed national dealer network of 10 retailers by MG’s factory-owned distributor in Australia, SAIC Motor Australia, which GoAuto understands is about to move into its new permanent headquarters in Woolloomooloo, Sydney.

    Like the smaller car, the MG6 is offered in the three trim levels - Soul, Core and Essence - but is exclusively available with a six-speed dual-clutch transmission and has a 1.8-litre turbo charged four cylinder that generates 118kW and 215Nm with a claimed average fuel consumption of 7.8L/100km.
