Remember that real consumption depends on driving style, traffic and air conditioning use.

     

    For the City and Daily Use: DZIRE, Baleno and Swift

    The Suzuki DZIRE is a five-seat sedan, and its listed GL 2027 trim has a 1.2 L three-cylinder engine without a turbo, producing 80 HP and 111 Nm, with an automatic transmission, front-wheel drive and 15 inch wheels. The listing mentions equipment such as a USB port, Bluetooth, rear air conditioning vents, electric side mirrors and velvet seats. It may suit someone who wants a sedan with a separate boot for daily commuting and work. The DZIRE appears on our site in GL, GLX and GLX New Design trims for 2025 and 2027.

    The Suzuki BALENO is a five-seat hatchback, and its listed GL 2026 trim has a 1.5 L four-cylinder engine producing 103 HP, with an automatic transmission, front-wheel drive, 15 inch wheels and a 37 L fuel tank. The listing mentions a 7 inch display, automatic front air conditioning, a rear camera, front and rear power windows and steering wheel controls. The Baleno is listed in the GL trim for 2025 and 2026 and the GLX trim for 2025, so if you are looking for the Suzuki Baleno 2026, start with the GL trim page.

    The Suzuki Swift is a five-seat hatchback, and its listed GLX 2025 trim has a 1.2 L three-cylinder engine producing 80 HP, with a CVT, front-wheel drive and a 37 L fuel tank. The listing mentions adaptive cruise control, blind spot information, a smart entry system, a rear camera, a 9 inch screen and front and rear power windows. It may suit someone who spends most of their time in city traffic and wants driver assistance in a small car.

     

    For Families and Errands: Fronx and Ertiga

    The Suzuki Fronx is a five-seat compact crossover, and its listed GLX 2026 trim has a 1.5 L four-cylinder engine producing 101 HP, with an automatic transmission, front-wheel drive, 16 inch wheels and a 37 L fuel tank. Its listed equipment includes heated seats, a smart entry system, a surround camera, a 9 inch screen, a head-up display on a transparent glass, folding rear seats and two USB charging ports. The Fronx appears in GL and GLX trims for 2026. It may suit a small family that wants a crossover body with comfort equipment for daily errands.

    The Suzuki Ertiga is a seven-seat family MPV, and it is the only seven-seat model among the Suzuki models listed on our site. Its listed GLX 2025 trim has a 1.5 L four-cylinder engine producing 103 HP, with an automatic transmission, front-wheel drive, 15 inch wheels and a 45 L fuel tank. The listing mentions a 7 inch screen, front and rear power windows, steering wheel controls, remote central door locking and front and rear speakers. It may suit a large family that needs a third row of seats for trips in the city and between cities.

     

    For the Desert and Rough Roads: Jimny

    The Suzuki Jimny is a compact four-wheel-drive car, and its listed GLX 2026 trim has a 1.5 L four-cylinder engine producing 101 HP and 130 Nm, with an automatic transmission, a four-wheel-drive system, 15 inch wheels and a 40 L fuel tank. The listing mentions front airbags for the driver and passenger, side airbags, a smart entry system, a rear camera, a leather steering wheel and fabric seats.

    The Jimny may suit someone who heads out to the desert and dirt tracks and wants a four-wheel-drive system in a small car, bearing in mind that its stated fuel economy is 15.7 km/L. We have not given the number of seats in the table, so check the car page to confirm it before deciding, especially if your family is large.

     

    For Work and Goods Transport: EECO

    The Suzuki EECO is a small two-seat work van, and its listed STD 2026 trim has a 1.2 L four-cylinder engine without a turbo, producing 79 HP and 104 Nm, with a manual transmission, rear-wheel drive and a 32 L fuel tank. The listing mentions sliding side doors, a maximum payload of 615 kg and manually adjustable exterior mirrors. It may suit shop owners and small businesses that move goods and orders within the city, rather than someone looking for a family car.

     

    How Do You Compare Suzuki Trims Before Buying?

    Suzuki models on our site use short trim names, mainly GL and GLX, with a Standard (STD) trim for the EECO and a GLX New Design trim for the DZIRE alongside GL and GLX. Do not assume that the same name means the same equipment in every model or every model year; compare as follows:

    • Open the page of each trim separately and start with the model year, because some models are listed in more than one year, such as the DZIRE for 2025 and 2027 and the Baleno for 2025 and 2026.
    • Compare the transmission and drive: most listed trims are automatic with front-wheel drive, while the Jimny has four-wheel drive, the EECO is manual with rear-wheel drive and the Swift has a CVT.
    • Compare the equipment you use every day: the camera type, rear or surround, the screen size, the smart entry system and driver assistance such as adaptive cruise control.
    • Match the number of seats to your family size and use: seven seats in the Ertiga, five in the DZIRE, Baleno, Swift and Fronx, and two in the EECO.
    • Ask about the difference between GL and GLX in the same model, such as the Baleno GL and Baleno GLX or the Fronx GL and Fronx GLX, and do not rely on the trim name alone.

    To review the full buying process from viewing to handover, read the new car buying guide with steps before signing and handover.

    • Frequently Asked Questions About JAECOO Models
    • Conclusion

    The JAECOO models 2026 listed on our site are three SUVs, the J5, the J7 SPORT and the J8, and the J5 is listed in both 2026 and 2027 versions. The three differ in size, seating and engine: the J5 and the J7 SPORT are compact five-seaters with a 1.5 L petrol engine, while the J8 is the largest, with seven seats and a 2.0 L turbo engine. This guide explains how they differ, which trims are listed for each model and who each one suits, and you can browse every listed car on the JAECOO cars page. JAECOO is a Chinese car brand. The specifications here are those of the listed trim named with each model and may vary by trim and model year, so check the car page for the exact specifications of the trim you want.

    Which JAECOO Models 2026 Are Listed on Our Site?

    The table below shows the three models with the specifications of one listed trim per model, named in the second column. The values come from the site’s listings, and a dash means the value is not stated here and needs confirming on the car page.

    Model Listed trim Type Engine Power Torque Transmission Seats Drive
    J5 COM 2027 Compact SUV 1.5 L, 4 cylinders, petrol 147 HP 210 Nm CVT 5 Front
    J7 SPORT Comfort 2026 Compact SUV 1.5 L turbo, 4 cylinders, petrol 146 HP 210 Nm Automatic 5 Front
    J8 LUXURY 2026 Seven-seat SUV 2.0 L turbo, 4 cylinders, petrol 261 HP 400 Nm Automatic 7 -

    The table shows that the J5 and the J7 SPORT are close in displacement, power, torque and seating, and the clearest differences between them are the transmission, wheel size, screens and the rest of the equipment. The J8 moves up to a larger size with a stronger engine, more torque and a third row of seats, so it speaks to a different buyer.

     

    Compact SUVs for the City and Small Families: J5 and J7 SPORT

    The JAECOO J5 is the compact entry point to the brand’s models. The listed COM 2027 trim has a 1.5 L four-cylinder petrol engine with 147 HP and 210 Nm, a CVT transmission and front-wheel drive, and the listing states fuel economy of 17.9 km/L. Its listed equipment includes a smart entry system, a rear camera, 17-inch wheels, a 9.2-inch instrument screen, an 8-inch central screen, driver and front passenger airbags, and front side airbags.

    The site lists the J5 in several trims: COM (Comfort) in 2026 and 2027 versions, Premium and Lux in the 2026 version, plus an entry for the Luxury trim in Blue Gray. The J5 suits drivers who spend most of their time in the city and want a raised five-seater, and who care about the fuel economy figure, keyless smart entry and parking with the help of the rear camera.

    If you are searching for the JAECOO J7, the model currently listed on our site is the JAECOO J7 SPORT in the Comfort 2026 trim. It has a 1.5 L four-cylinder turbo petrol engine with 146 HP and 210 Nm, an automatic transmission, front-wheel drive, five seats and 18-inch wheels. Its listing mentions a 10.25 LCD digital instrument cluster, a 13.2 touchscreen, a sound-insulating windscreen, remote air conditioning start from the key, an electronic child safety lock for the doors, four airbags and a rear camera.

    The J7 SPORT suits buyers who want a compact size close to the J5 but with larger screens, larger wheels and comfort features such as starting the air conditioning remotely before getting in, a practical feature in the Saudi summer. Families with young children will also value the electronic child lock on the doors.

     

    A Seven-Seat Family SUV for Long Trips: J8

    The JAECOO J8 is the largest JAECOO model listed with us, and all of its listed trims are from the 2026 version. The reference LUXURY 2026 trim has a 2.0 L four-cylinder turbo petrol engine with 261 HP and 400 Nm, an automatic transmission, normal and sport drive modes, seven seats, 19-inch wheels and listed fuel economy of 15.2 km/L.

    This trim’s listed equipment goes beyond the two compacts: a panoramic sunroof, adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, ventilated and heated seats, a smart entry system, a power tailgate, and a driver display and a central screen listed at 12.3 each, both supporting Arabic. We have not stated the drive type for this trim because it needs confirming, so check it on the car page or ask the branch.

    The listed J8 trims are Executive, Premium, Premium in Matte Gray and LUXURY. The J8 suits large families who need a third row of seats and drivers who often travel between cities, since adaptive cruise control helps on highways, the higher torque helps when the car is full of passengers and luggage, and ventilated seats ease the summer heat.

     

    Which JAECOO Model Suits Your Use?

    • For the city and daily commuting: the J5, with its compact size, five seats and the fuel economy stated in its listing.
    • For larger screens in a compact car: the J7 SPORT, with a 13.2 touchscreen and 18-inch wheels.
    • For a large family: the J8, with seven seats and a power tailgate that makes loading luggage easier.
    • For long trips between cities: the J8, with adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning and a 2.0 L turbo engine.
    • For desert and sandy roads: the reference trims in this guide do not show a four-wheel-drive system, so check the drive system on each trim’s page before deciding.

     

    How Should You Compare JAECOO Trims Before Buying?

    The model name alone is not enough, because equipment changes from trim to trim and from year to year. Open the page of each trim you are considering and compare them in the order below, then read the steps for buying a new car before signing and delivery before you complete the deal.

    • Model year: the J5 is listed in 2026 and 2027 versions, so compare COM 2026 with COM 2027 on their own pages rather than relying on the name.
    • Trim ladder: for the J5 compare COM, Premium and Lux, and for the J8 compare Executive, Premium and LUXURY, focusing on screens, airbags, camera, sunroof, ventilated seats and adaptive cruise control.
    • Colour entries: the J8 Premium in Matte Gray and the J5 Luxury in Blue Gray appear as separate entries, so check whether the entry differs in equipment or only in colour.
    • Engine, transmission and drive system: confirm them on the trim’s own page, especially the drive system of the J8.
    • Viewing: see the trim at the branch, try the seats and screens, and check how easy it is to reach the third row of the J8 if you will use it often.

     

    How Do You Find JAECOO Prices, Offers and Finance Options?

    The current price of each trim is shown on the car page itself, so open the page of the trim you want rather than relying on a general price for the model. Follow the current offers page to see the offers on the listed models.

    If you are considering instalments, use the car finance calculator to estimate the instalment based on your details before applying. The listed models can be viewed at Saleh Cars branches, and you can find addresses and contact options on the contact and branches page or through the unified number 920022122.

    Car Won't Crank: Battery or Starter Problem? How to Tell

    Car Won't Crank: Battery or Starter Problem? How to Tell

    Table of Contents:

    • How Is a No-Crank Different from Cranking Without Starting?
    • How Can Sounds and Lights Reveal a Battery or Starter Problem?
    • Why Won’t the Car Crank with a New Battery?
    • Which Safe Checks Can You Do Before the Workshop?

    • How Do You Read Battery and Starter Signs in One Table?
    • What Does a Technician Test to Confirm the Cause?
    • Frequently Asked Questions About a Car That Won’t Crank
    • Conclusion

    If you turn the key or press the start button and the engine does not turn over at all, the cause may lie in the car battery or its connections, in the starter motor and its circuit, or in a starting condition that has not been met, such as the gear position or key recognition. Whether it is a battery or starter problem usually shows in the dashboard lights, the type of sound and the result of a jump start test. These are indications for ordering the checks, while confirmation comes from a qualified technician with proper equipment.

    How Is a No-Crank Different from Cranking Without Starting?

    A no-crank means the engine does not turn when you try to start it: you hear nothing, or only a click or rapid clicking. If the starter turns the engine at its usual sound but the engine does not fire, that is a different situation, usually caused by fuel, spark or sensors, which we cover in the guide on an engine that cranks but will not start. Here we focus on the first case, whose diagnosis starts with the electrical side.

     

    How Can Sounds and Lights Reveal a Battery or Starter Problem?

    Watch the moment of starting and the dashboard lights before and during it, as each sign has a more likely cause, not a final verdict:

    • No sound and no lights, or a very dim dashboard: this may point to a completely flat battery, a loose or corroded terminal, or a main fuse.
    • No sound with bright lights: this may mean the start command is not reaching the starter, because of the gear position, the brake or clutch pedal, the key not being recognised, or a relay or fuse.
    • A single click with bright lights that do not dim: this may point to the starter or the switch that pushes its gear (the solenoid), or to a weak starter cable or ground strap.
    • Rapid repeated clicking with dimming lights: this may point to a poorly charged battery or badly connected terminals, so the solenoid does not receive enough current, releases and tries again.
    • Slow, laboured cranking: this may point to a weak battery or corroded connections, and sometimes to a starter drawing excess current because of internal wear.
    • Whirring or grinding without the engine turning: this may mean the starter gear is not meshing with the flywheel ring gear or that teeth on one of them are damaged, so stop trying.
    • It starts one time and not the next: this may point to a loose connection, a starter that is starting to fail, an intermittent relay or the gear position sensor, so note when the problem occurs and tell the technician.

    For more detail on each side, see the signs of a failing starter motor and car battery failure symptoms and how to test them.

     

    Why Won’t the Car Crank with a New Battery?

    Fitting a new battery does not mean the problem is over; the old one may have been fine, or the cause may be somewhere that was never checked. The main possibilities are:

    • Terminals not tightened properly, corrosion left on the cable ends, or a damaged or loose ground strap between the engine and the body.
    • A new battery that is not fully charged, because it was stored for a long time or was drained by lights or accessories left on.
    • A battery that does not match the car’s specification in capacity, cranking current or technology; see the guide to choosing a new car battery.
    • A parasitic drain that empties the battery while parked, so the car starts today and will not crank tomorrow morning; read about hidden electrical drain in the car.
    • A weak charging system (alternator), so the battery runs down gradually despite driving, and a charging warning light may appear on the dashboard.
    • The starter relay or the starting circuit fuse, or the starter motor itself and its solenoid, especially if the symptoms were present before the battery was changed.
    • The key not being recognised because of a weak remote battery or a fault in the immobilizer, which blocks the starter in some cars.
    • The gear selector not in P or N on an automatic, the clutch not fully pressed or its switch faulty on a manual, or the brake not pressed in cars with a start button.

     

    Which Safe Checks Can You Do Before the Workshop?

    These checks do not require removing any part, and they help you narrow down the likely cause:

    1. Make sure the gear selector is in P or N and that you are pressing the brake or clutch as the owner’s manual requires, and try starting in N if it fails in P.
    2. Look at the dashboard lights: bright, dim or off? Does a message about the key or a battery warning light appear?
    3. Headlight test: switch on the headlights and watch their reflection on a wall while trying to start. Heavy dimming may point to the battery or its connections, while lights that stay bright with a single click may point to the starter. Some cars switch off electrical loads during starting, so do not rely on this observation alone.
    4. Try the spare key, check the remote battery if a key-not-detected message appears, and follow the alternative starting method if the owner’s manual gives one.
    5. Inspect the terminals by eye with the engine off: are the cables secure? Is there white or green corrosion? Do not move them with a metal tool, and never touch both terminals together.
    6. Try a jump start by following the steps to jump-start a car safely: if the engine cranks normally, the battery or its connections are more likely; if the same click remains, the starter or its circuit is more likely.

     

    What Should You Avoid When the Car Won’t Crank?

    • Do not tap the starter with a tool while someone else tries to start the car; being close to the fan, belts and hot parts during a sudden turn can cause injury.
    • Do not keep cranking without a pause or hold the start for long; the starter is designed for intermittent use and can overheat, so let it rest between attempts as the owner’s manual advises.
    • Do not bypass the relay or bridge the starter or battery terminals with a screwdriver or wire; the engine may turn suddenly while the car is in gear, or sparks and electrical damage may occur.
    • Do not replace the starter or battery by guesswork before testing, as that may not fix the problem.
    • Do not try to jump-start a battery that is swollen, cracked or leaking fluid; ask for help.

     

    How Do You Read Battery and Starter Signs in One Table?

    The table below summarises common signs, the more likely side and the suggested next step:

    Sign More likely Also worth ruling out Next step
    No sound, dashboard dark Battery or terminals Main fuse Inspect the terminals by eye and try a jump start
    No sound, dashboard bright Starting circuit Gear position, key and relay Confirm P or N and the brake, and try the spare key
    Single click, bright lights Starter or solenoid Starter cable or ground strap Have the starter and its circuit tested
    Rapid clicking, lights dim Battery or terminals Weak charging system Try a jump start, then test the battery and charging
    Slow, laboured cranking Battery or connections Starter drawing high current Ask for a battery load test and a starter draw test
    Whirring or grinding, no crank Starter gear Flywheel ring gear teeth Stop trying and have it inspected
    Intermittent problem Loose connection or weakening starter Relay or gear position sensor Note when it happens and tell the technician

     

    What Does a Technician Test to Confirm the Cause?

    A technician relies on measurement against the manufacturer’s data, and usually checks:

    • The battery’s condition under load or with a battery tester, not just its charge.
    • Voltage drop across the positive cable and the ground path while cranking, to reveal resistance in connections that cannot be seen.
    • The current the starter draws, since a high draw may point to a tired starter or mechanical resistance in the engine.
    • Whether the start signal reaches the starter through the relay, the fuse and the gear position or clutch switch.
    • The charging system, and stored fault codes in the car’s computer if messages about the key or the immobilizer appear.

     

    Frequently Asked Questions About a Car That Won’t Crank

    What is the starter motor in a car?

    The starter motor is a small electric motor that draws its current from the battery and turns the engine at the moment of starting through a gear that meshes with the flywheel, then disengages once the engine runs, so it needs a healthy battery and good connections.

    How can I tell the starter has failed rather than the battery?

    If the battery is charged and tested, the terminals are sound, and the single click with bright lights repeats even with a jump start, the starter or its circuit becomes more likely, and a technician confirms it by measuring voltage drop and current draw.

    What does a clicking sound from the starter mean when starting?

    Rapid clicking usually happens when the starter does not receive enough current because of a weak battery or corroded or loose terminals, while a single click with bright lights may be linked to the starter or its solenoid.

    Does tapping the starter fix the problem?

    The starter may work temporarily after being tapped, but that is a sign of a fault in it rather than a fix, and it is dangerous while someone else tries to start the car.

    Can a smart key stop the car from starting?

    Yes. If the car does not recognise the key because of a weak key battery or a system fault, the starter may not turn or the engine may not fire, a message usually appears on the dashboard, and the owner’s manual may explain an alternative starting method.

     

    Conclusion

    When the car will not crank, note the dashboard lights, the type of sound and the result of a jump start: dim lights and rapid clicking lean towards the battery, while a single click with bright lights leans towards the starter, and do not forget the gear position and the key. Avoid risky shortcuts, and leave confirmation to a qualified technician.

    How Do You Compare Kia Trims Before Buying?

    Most Kia models on our site carry trims with similar names such as GL and GLS, along with special names such as GL Upgraded, GL - LARGE, GL Camera, GL Retail, EX, LX and EX-TOP. Do not rely on the trim name alone, and compare with these steps:

    • Decide on the model year first, because some models are listed for 2025 and 2026 with different trims.
    • Compare engine, power and torque on each trim page, as with the K4, which includes the GL Upgraded 1.6 and GL Upgraded 2.0L trims.
    • Check the drive system on the Tasman between the LX 4X2 trim and the LX GLS 4x4 trim before choosing.
    • Compare the equipment that matters to you: camera, screen size, seat type, rear air conditioning and sunroof.
    • Confirm the number of seats if your family is large: the Carens has seven seats and the Carnival eight.

    Once you have chosen a trim, the guide to new car buying steps before you sign and take delivery helps you organise the inspection and paperwork.

     

    How Do You Find Kia 2026 Prices and Buy the Right Trim?

    The price of each trim is shown on its own car page and changes with the trim and model year, which is why this guide does not state prices.

    Instalments at the Cash Price: Meaning and What to Check

    Instalments at the Cash Price: Meaning and What to Check

    Table of Contents:

    • What Do Instalments at the Cash Price Mean?
    • How Do Cash Price Instalment Offers Usually Work?
    • What Other Costs May Remain Even If the Offer Is at the Cash Price?
    • How Can You Verify That an Offer Is Really at the Cash Price?
    • What Questions Should You Ask Before Signing?
    • When Does an Instalment Offer at the Cash Price Suit You?
    • Frequently Asked Questions About Instalments at the Cash Price
    • Conclusion

    An offer of instalments at the cash price basically means that the total you pay for the car in instalments equals its price if you paid the full amount at once, so the finance cost is not added to the car’s price because the seller or the offer absorbs it. But the advertising phrase instalments at the cash price is not enough on its own; there may still be administration fees, comprehensive insurance required throughout the contract, a final payment, or add-ons bundled into the offer. So ask for the cash price and the total amount payable in writing, compare the two, and read the repayment schedule, the offer’s terms and its validity before you sign.

    What Do Instalments at the Cash Price Mean?

    The idea is that you buy the car in instalments without its price rising above the cash price. In ordinary financing, the buyer pays the finance cost on top of the car’s price, which is what the finance company charges for spreading the amount over the contract term. In this type of offer, it is announced that this cost does not fall on the buyer, so the down payment, the instalments and any other payments together remain equal to the cash price.

    Searches use several similar phrases, such as cash price instalment cars, a car on instalments at the cash price and two payments at the cash price, and the general meaning is the same: the contract price equals the full-payment price. For the general comparison between cash and instalments, with the pros and cons of each option and how to calculate the total cost, see the comparison of buying a car with financing or cash, while this article focuses specifically on instalments at the cash price and how to verify them.

     

    How Do Cash Price Instalment Offers Usually Work?

    The details of each offer differ, but the general picture is often similar: the seller agrees with a finance company to absorb all or part of the finance cost, so it appears to the buyer that what they pay does not exceed the cash price. The financing itself is provided by the finance company according to its terms and is subject to its credit approval, so the existence of an offer does not mean your application is automatically accepted.

    • The offer may be limited to specific cars or trims, or to a certain quantity.
    • It may be tied to a specific instalment term or a specific down payment, so if you change the term or the down payment the calculation changes and your application may fall outside the offer.
    • It may be for a limited time, so it can expire or its terms can change while an old advertisement stays the same.
    • It may not combine with discounts given to cash buyers, so the cash price stated in the offer may be higher than what you could get by paying the full amount.

    In some cases the offer is at the cash price in name only, because the cost moves to other items such as fees or add-ons. That is why what counts is the total amount written in the contract, not the headline of the advertisement. At Saleh Cars Group, financing solutions are offered through approved banks and finance companies, and the financing is provided by the finance company, not the group; you can review the frequently asked questions about buying and financing to learn about payment methods and general financing conditions.

     

    What Other Costs May Remain Even If the Offer Is at the Cash Price?

    Even if no finance cost is added to the car’s price, other items may still apply, varying by offer and by the finance company’s terms. The table summarises the main ones and what to ask before signing:

    Item What it may mean What to ask
    Administration or application processing fees An amount the finance company charges for reviewing the application or opening the contract Are there fees? Are they inside or outside the total amount?
    Comprehensive insurance during the contract The finance company may require comprehensive insurance on the car throughout the instalment term Is the insurance at my expense? Who chooses the insurer? How is it renewed?
    Down payment Part of the price paid when the contract is signed Does the offer require a specific down payment? Does the offer still apply if I change it?
    Final payment An amount larger than the monthly instalment due at the end of the contract Is there a final payment in the repayment schedule? What are my options when it is due?
    Add-ons bundled into the offer Service packages, accessories, window tinting or protection added to the price Are the add-ons mandatory? Can they be removed while keeping the offer?
    Early settlement The terms for ending the contract before its due date Are there fees or conditions for early settlement? How are they calculated?

    The contract may also include items other than these. Ask for every item in writing, and check the contract and the finance company’s official disclosures, because these details differ from one contract to another; anything you do not understand, ask the finance company directly.

     

    How Can You Verify That an Offer Is Really at the Cash Price?

    1. Ask for the cash price of exactly the same car, with the same trim, specifications and colour, in writing in an official quotation.
    2. Ask for the total amount payable under the instalment plan in writing: the down payment, the sum of the instalments, any final payment and all fees.
    3. Compare the two figures: if the total amount is higher than the cash price, the difference is what you are actually paying for the instalments, whatever the offer is called.
    4. Ask for the full repayment schedule, and make sure the number of instalments, their amounts and their due dates match what you were told verbally.
    5. Read the offer’s terms: the cars included, the permitted instalment term, the required down payment and the offer’s expiry date.
    6. Before signing, make sure the finance company’s offer and the contract state the same figures as the seller’s quotation.

    To get a first estimate of the monthly instalment before visiting the showroom, you can use the car instalments and finance calculator page, bearing in mind that the final figures are set by the finance company according to its terms, and that a first estimate does not replace the official repayment schedule.

     

    What Questions Should You Ask Before Signing?

    • Is the cash price in the offer the same price I would pay if I bought in cash today, or does the cash discount not apply to the offer?
    • What total amount will I pay up to the last instalment, including all fees and add-ons?
    • Who bears the finance cost, and does that change if I change the term or the down payment?
    • Is comprehensive insurance required throughout the contract, and who pays for its renewal?
    • Is there a final payment in the contract, and what are my options when it is due?
    • What are the early settlement terms, and do the offer’s benefits remain if I settle early?
    • When does the offer end, and what happens if it ends before the finance company decides on my application?

    Write down the answers and ask for them in writing, and never sign a contract with blank fields or terms that were not explained to you. For the other buying steps, from setting a budget to inspecting and receiving the car, see the new car buying guide before you sign and take delivery.

     

    When Does an Instalment Offer at the Cash Price Suit You?

    The offer usually suits you when you have already decided on instalments, and the comparison shows that the total amount really equals the cash price, and the car included is the one you need rather than the one the offer pushes. Signs that make it a reasonable option include:

    • The monthly instalment is comfortable for your income and does not strain your other commitments.
    • The insurance terms, fees and add-ons are clear and acceptable to you.
    • You prefer to keep part of your savings rather than paying the car’s full value.

    It may not suit you if the car included does not fit your needs, if the down payment or final payment is larger than you can manage, or if an available cash discount makes paying in full better value for you. If what you have does not cover a down payment at all, that is a different question about buying without a down payment, with its own conditions at finance companies. Before you decide, you can browse the current offers on cars and check the terms and validity of each offer.

     

    Frequently Asked Questions About Instalments at the Cash Price

    Does instalments at the cash price mean there is no extra cost at all?

    Not necessarily. The seller may absorb the finance cost, but administration fees, comprehensive insurance or bundled add-ons may still apply. What counts is the total amount in writing compared with the cash price of the same car.

    What does two payments at the cash price mean?

    It usually means splitting the car’s price into two payments with no increase over the cash price, according to the seller’s terms. Ask when each payment is due and when the car is delivered and ownership transferred, and get this in writing.

    Do cash price instalment offers cover all cars?

    Usually not; the offer may be limited to specific cars, trims or quantities and for a limited time. Read the offer’s terms and expiry date before relying on it in your decision.

    Is early settlement possible with these offers?

    That depends on the finance company’s terms and the contract. Ask the finance company about the early settlement conditions and any fees, and about the effect on the offer’s benefits, and get the answer in writing.

    Can a resident buy a car on instalments at the cash price?

    Residents can buy with financing, but acceptance of the application and the required documents are set by the finance company according to its terms and credit approval, and each offer’s conditions may differ, so ask the finance company before applying.

     

    Conclusion

    Instalments at the cash price mean that the contract price equals the full-payment price, but they do not always mean the absence of any other cost. Ask for the cash price and the total amount in writing and compare them, review the repayment schedule, fees, insurance, final payment, early settlement terms and the offer’s validity, and sign only if the figures are clear and suit your budget.

    MG Models 2025 and 2026: Trims, Specs and Buying Guide

    • Conclusion

    The MG models listed on our site that this guide covers are five: a small hatchback, the MG 3; three sedans, the MG 5, MG GT and MG 7; and one crossover, the MG ZS. This guide explains how they differ in size, engine and equipment, which buyer each model suits, and how to compare trims before buying, and you can browse every car listed for the brand on the MG cars page of our site. MG is a car brand of British origin that is owned today by a Chinese group.

    MG Models on Our Site and Their Specs

    The table below summarises one listed trim of each model. The specs are taken from the car pages on our site; they belong to the trim shown and vary by trim and model year, so open the car page to check the trim you are interested in before you decide.

    Listed trim Type Engine Power Torque Transmission Drive Seats
    MG 3 STD 2025 Hatchback 1.5 L, 4 cylinders 109 HP 140 Nm CVT Front 5
    MG 5 STD 2025 Sedan 1.5 L, 4 cylinders 118 HP 150 Nm CVT Front 5
    MG GT COM CVT 2026 Sedan 1.5 L, 4 cylinders 118 HP 150 Nm CVT Front 5

    MG ZS LUX 2025 Crossover 1.5 L, 4 cylinders 112 HP 150 Nm CVT Front 5

    The table shows that all the listed trims use a 1.5 L four-cylinder petrol engine with front-wheel drive and seat five. The biggest differences come from the turbocharger in the MG 7, from the body style, whether hatchback, sedan or crossover, and from the level of interior equipment in each trim.

     

    For the City and Daily Use: MG 3, MG 5 and MG GT

    This group suits drivers who spend most of their time in the city and want a car that is easy to park and use every day, whether for commuting or short family errands.

    The MG 3 is the smallest of the models in this guide, with a hatchback body that makes moving and parking in busy streets easier. The listed STD 2025 trim has 109 HP and 140 Nm of torque with a CVT, fuel economy stated on its page as 17.8 km/L, and 15 inch wheels. Its equipment includes fabric seats, electronic air conditioning, a 10.25 central touchscreen, a 7 instrument display and a rear camera, along with iPhone and Android app projection and Bluetooth.

    The MG 5 is a practical sedan for a small family, listed for 2025 in two trims: Standard and Standard New Shape. The trim in the table has 118 HP, 150 Nm of torque, a CVT and 16 inch wheels, with fabric seats, electronic air conditioning and a 10 central touchscreen with iPhone and Android apps and Bluetooth. Families will note that the listing mentions an ISOFIX child seat mounting system.

    The MG GT is a sedan with the same 1.5 L engine in the listed trim, producing 118 HP and 150 Nm of torque on 16 inch wheels. It stands out for its range of trims across 2025 and 2026, including a CVT version and a DCT version of the 2026 Comfort (COM) trim. The listed trim comes with push-button start, a leather steering wheel, 4 speakers, a 10.1 touchscreen and a rear camera, along with iPhone and Android apps and Bluetooth.

     

    For Long Trips and More Power: MG 7

    The MG 7 is the most powerful of the trims shown in the table: the engine of the STD 2025 trim is a 1.5 L turbo producing 185 HP and 300 Nm of torque with an automatic transmission, and its page states fuel economy of 19.3 km/L. This higher torque helps when overtaking on highways and when travelling between cities fully loaded.

    The MG 7 suits those who spend long hours on the road with their family, as the listing mentions air conditioning vents for the second row, leather seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a smart entry system and push-button start. The cabin has a 10.25 inch central touchscreen and a 12.3 inch digital instrument display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and it rides on 18 inch wheels. It is listed in two trims for 2025: STD and DEL.

     

    A Crossover With a Higher Driving Position: MG ZS

    The MG ZS is the only crossover among the models covered in this guide, and it suits those who prefer sitting higher than in a sedan while keeping a size that works in the city. The listed LUX 2025 trim has 112 HP, 150 Nm of torque and a CVT, fuel economy stated on its page as 17.2 km/L, and 17 inch wheels.

    This trim carries equipment that families notice, including a panoramic sunroof, a surround-view camera, synthetic leather seats and a 10 central touchscreen, plus auto hold with an electronic parking brake and push-button start and stop. The MG ZS is listed for 2025 in three trims: NEW STD, LUX and Luxury New Shape. If rough desert trips are a priority for you, note that the listed trim is front-wheel drive, so it is better suited to paved roads.

     

    How Do You Compare MG Trims Before Buying?

    A single model may come in more than one trim, and trims differ in transmission, equipment and exterior styling. These are the trims listed on our site for each model:

    • MG 3: STD 2025.
    • MG 5: STD and Standard New Shape 2025.
    • MG GT: Lux and COM 2025, and COM CVT and COM DCT 2026.
    • MG 7: STD and DEL 2025.
    • MG ZS: NEW STD, LUX and Luxury New Shape 2025.

    When comparing two trims of the same model, focus on these points:

    1. Transmission: a CVT feels smooth in traffic, a DCT is a dual-clutch gearbox, and the MG 7 uses a conventional automatic; try each type on a test drive.
    2. Model year and styling: compare the new shape trim with the earlier trim of the same model, and ask for photos of the exact trim you plan to buy.
    3. Seats and air conditioning: fabric, synthetic leather or leather, and rear air vents if you often carry passengers in the back.
    4. Camera and screens: a rear camera or a surround-view camera, and the size of the central screen and instrument display.
    5. Wheel size: from 15 inch on the MG 3 to 18 inch on the MG 7 across the listed trims.

    Before you sign for any trim, read the new car buying guide with checks before delivery to know what to verify in the contract and when you take the car.
