MG 3 Engines and Transmissions

Each MG 3 engine here is a naturally aspirated gasoline unit paired with a manual gearbox driving the front wheels. The 1.3 MT suits low-cost urban use, while the 1.5 MT gives more relaxed overtaking and highway pulling power. This drivetrain layout keeps maintenance simple and predictable.
