MG RX8 SUV looks similar to the Toyota Land Cruiser in terms of interior but in a completely different segment. The vehicle features a simple yet trendy interior with stitched fabric seats.
The vehicle is powered by a 2.0L turbo petrol engine capable of producing 224hp and 360Nm of torque while equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle comes in two variants, including a 4×2 rear wheel drive (RWD) and a 4×4 option.
However, it is still too early to tell when this vehicle will be hitting the roads of Pakistan as there has been no official announcement by the company yet.
