MAXUS Philippines recently rolled out its newest addition to the country’s growing lineup—the Maxus G50 compact MPV. In its first-ever virtual launch event, Maxus Philippines is now taking a slice of the pie in the segment with its slogan “To the Max” and radiant color options to add flavor to the model.
Introduced in three variants (1.5 Turbo DCT Pro, 1.5 Turbo DCT Elite, and 1.5 Turbo DCT Premium), each G50 edition epitomizes the “do-it-all” attitude of a multi-purpose vehicle. Not to mention, infused with the brand’s 124 years of British-bred heritage, global expertise, and experience in light commercial vehicles. The G50 is an MPV that can do “Max more.”
With a modern design, spacious interior, superior features, and value-for-money price point, the G50 is ideal for young entrepreneurs seeking not just an all-in-one vehicle, but also a ‘more-in-one’ MPV for daily transport, business, and delivery vehicle. This new MPV is also tailored for up-and-coming corporate managers in need of weekend leisure ride with the entire household.
Automobile Central Enterprise Inc. President Felipe Estrella described how the G50 further enhances the role Maxus’s lineup of LCVs plays in Filipinos’ lives. “We have recognized the importance of families since we launched our flagship model, the G10 multipurpose vehicle in 2019. Our other models, the V80 van and our pick-up, the T60, match the continuously evolving needs and wants of Filipino families. We likewise appreciate the hard work of micro, small, and medium enterprise owners. The reliability, efficiency, power, and versatility of our products make them ideal for businesses and even essential, life-saving purposes. The G50 is our latest vehicle that caters, again, to the Filipino family.”
Maxus Philippines General Manager Reginald See, for his part, expounded on family needs. “The G50 is an MPV that can take in even your extended family members since it’s an 8-seater. It’s ideal for long road trips and family picnics. The great thing about this is that it has the price of a subcompact MPV.”
When it comes to safety, feature, and performance, the G50 ticks off all the boxes that define an ideal compact MPV. Further, it goes the extra mile by adding more to the total package. Apart from the spacious eight-seater cabin, a 12-inch infotainment system is equipped with a 360-degree view camera. Leather seats are added for the Premium and Elite variants. In contrast, a panoramic sunroof, mobile wireless charging, LED headlights, and a power tailgate is available for the top-of-the-line Premium variant.
Available as standard are keyless entry with push-start button, reverse camera, Park Distance Control, Electronic Stabilization Program, and Electronic Parking Brake with Auto Hold. Motivation comes from a 1.5-liter four-cylinder turbocharged gasoline engine generating 167 hp at 5,500 rpm and 250 N-m of maximum torque at 1,700-4,300 rpm.
The 1.5 Turbo DCT Pro is priced at P1.088 million (Warm White, Warm Argent, Metal Black, and Water Blue), while the 1.5 Turbo DCT Elite is valued at P1.168 million (Roland Purple, Polar Ash, and Warm White, plus the exclusive Deep Golden shade). The 1.5 Turbo DCT Premium, meantime, is priced at P1.288 million (Roland Purple, Polar Ash, and Warm White).
The G50 enjoys “Max” quality, efficiency, and convenience of aftersales products, services, and worry-free ownership backed by a warranty coverage of five years or 100,000 km, whichever comes first. Maxus Philippines also offers 24/7 emergency roadside assistance and on-site servicing for corporate fleet accounts. For more information about the G50, log on to www.maxus.com.ph.
