Where are MG cars produced?
2 Answers
MG cars are produced in the UK. The models under the MG brand include the MG5, MG6, MG ZS, MG Pilot, MG HS, and MG3. Taking the MG5 as an example: it is a compact 5-door, 5-seater sedan under SAIC Volkswagen, with a length, width, and height of 4675mm, 1842mm, and 1473mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2680mm. It is equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission. The MG5 has a top speed of 185 km/h, a fuel tank capacity of 45L, front suspension using MacPherson independent suspension, rear suspension using torsion beam non-independent suspension, and tire specifications of 205/55R16.
The MG brand has quite a story. It was originally a classic British marque founded in 1924, producing many iconic roadsters in its heyday. After changing hands several times, it was acquired by China's SAIC Motor in 2005. Today, MG is essentially a Chinese brand, with its main production bases located in China - the Shanghai Anting and Nanjing Pukou plants being the primary facilities manufacturing popular models like the MG5 and MG6. According to their official website, SAIC has also established a factory in Chonburi, Thailand for global markets, specifically producing right-hand-drive vehicles for Southeast Asia and the UK. So if you buy an MG, it's most likely made in China, with only a small number of overseas versions possibly coming from the Thai plant.
