The 2026 MG U9 Ute: MG’s First Dual-Cab is Coming to Australia

MG has officially opened pre-orders for its first-ever ute – the 2026 MG U9 – marking a major step forward for the brand in Australia. While pricing is yet to be confirmed, anticipation is building as the U9 prepares to enter the highly competitive dual-cab ute market later this year.

At Tynan MG Sutherland, we’re excited to see MG expand into new territory with a ute that promises toughness, capability, and innovation.

MG’s First Ute for Australia

The MG U9 is set to arrive as a dual-cab ute, offering the practicality and versatility Australian buyers demand. Key highlights include:

• A 2.5-litre turbo diesel engine paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
• Four-wheel drive capability designed for both work and adventure.
• A braked towing capacity of 3.5 tonnes, ideal for trailers, boats, and caravans.
• Payload exceeding 1000kg on selected variants, making it ready for the job site.

Designed to Stand Apart

While the U9 shares some underpinnings with LDV’s Terron 9, it brings its own character and innovation. Notable differences include:

• A coil-sprung, independent rear suspension system for improved comfort and handling.
• Unique styling and interior design elements, including a redesigned centre console.
• Enhanced functionality, such as a fold-down step integrated into the tailgate.

These features suggest MG is positioning the U9 as more than just another ute – it’s built to make a strong impression in Australia’s crowded dual-cab market.

What’s Next?

More details about specifications, trim levels, and features are expected to be revealed in the coming weeks. Until then, one thing is clear: the MG U9 ute represents an exciting new chapter for MG in Australia, and it’s sure to attract attention from both tradies and families alike.
