It's time to see what the MG U9 Ute is REALLY LIKE.... Subscribe here: youtube.com/@therightcar?sub_confirmation=1----
In my earlier review of the MG MGU9 dual cab ute in Australia, I only got to drive it off road.
That review is here: youtu.be/c-tKv0kjvq8
But for this test, I had a chance to live with the double cab pickup truck from China for a week, and while it is a budget offering, in most ways it doesn't feel cheap.
It has loads of space, heaps of tech (thankfully user friendly stuff, too!) and lots of practicality.
But is it the best diesel 4x4 ute on the market in Australia? Watch on, and have your say in the comments...

I am aiming to review every new car on the market that people actually buy, to help new-car customers like you, or curious car enthusiasts (maybe also like you) get the right steer when it comes to choosing a new set of wheels.
If you're looking for a car for yourself, monitoring the market and hunting for the latest info, or even if you've just bought your new car and you're looking to see what experts like me think about it, The Right Car will offer you something of value.
