Since the Big Brother Naija - Pepper Dem edition - ended, there have been vigorous conversations centred around the cost of the IVM G40 SUV prize. Many Nigerians opined that the G40 was too pricey for a locally-made vehicle. Some suggested that many imported brands of SUVs cost a lot less.

Due to the furore generated by the price of the IVM G40, as announced by the organizer of the Big Brother Naija, we contacted Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing – the manufacturer of the vehicle - to determine the actual price of the vehicle.

We were informed that the G40 sells for N21.3million. This is about N3.7million less than what Multichoice announced.

So, why did Multichoice announce that the car costs N25million?

According to Ehijie, a car buff, Innoson probably sells the base model of the IVM G40 for N21.3 million. The base model of a car typically comes without some customizations or unique extra features.

Now the question is, even if the model of IVM G40 presented to Mercy Eke as the BBN prize was the upgraded model, what sort of upgrade was made on it that would cost N3.7million?

Will not buy that catapilliar for 5million self
Don’t even have d money for a bicycle self
Not to talk of a car
Innoson and bbn
Knows what they are doing
Dat car is not just worth dat amount
My thought thou.

Maybe Nigeria factor played out and someone just got richer by N3.7m.

After making billions from the show, they still went ahead to deprive the winner of N3.7m. By the way, after paying N30m. And the SUV is N25m. What happens to the balance N5m? That can't be deductions for tax - or is it?

I smell scam.

No doubt about that.. The car aren't worth my N5milla sef.

BBN organizers are clowns.

Yes she was,

Mercy should report them to EFCC, how can they sell that Chinese NEPA Car for 25 million

Only a Dunce would buy a 2.4L i configuration four cylinder engine with 143 horsepower and 150km/hr top speed for N25million $60,000, when Toyota ,Audi and Nissan V8 engine cost for far less

Imagine if 800va i better pass my neighbor Tiger generator is produced by innosson they would call it 500k

There are other prizes now that sum up to 60m. Don't just rush to comment please

Nepa cars are usually costly. I don't think she was shortchanged in anyway.

HATERS , WHO WAS MERCY BEFORE BBNAIJA? THE FAME AND THE EXPOSURE SHE GOT COMPARE TO THE THE LESS THAN 2.5M YOU ARE CLAIMING SHORT CHANGE IS INSIGNIFICANT.

Ofcos she was....Indirect scamming method.

whats the difference between the cost you quoted and final price

What do you know about cars?

Make we leave story and sentiments, that car cost for that money. But again, brand new cars are expensive sha. Don't use price for direct tukumbo to compare new ones
