Where is MG cars produced?
2 Answers
MG is produced by SAIC Motor Corporation, which belongs to the passenger vehicle division of SAIC Motor Corporation Limited. The production base for MG cars in the Chinese market is located in Nanjing, while the production base for the international market is in Longbridge, UK. The English abbreviation for MG is MG, and the current models of MG cars include the MG7 series, MG3 series, MG6, MG HS, MG TF, etc. Originally, MG cars were customized vehicles developed by Morris Garages, a British car dealership, primarily manufacturing two-door convertible sports cars. MG is a British automotive brand that was later acquired by China and became a passenger car brand under Nanjing Automobile Group Co., Ltd. The main models include MG Zero, MG6, etc. SAIC MG has successively put into production the MG7 series, MG5 series, MG3 series, MG TF sports car, MG6 series, and other models, with products sold both domestically in China and internationally. The production base for the Chinese market is in Nanjing, and the production base for the international market is in the UK.
MG is now a Chinese brand! It used to be a classic British marque that produced many iconic sports cars. Around the 2000s, it was fully acquired by SAIC Motor, so now all production is domestic. Their main production base is in Shanghai's Lingang area, where a cutting-edge factory was built a couple of years ago specifically for new models. I test-drove their electric vehicles - the interior craftsmanship is indistinguishable from international standards. Actually, SAIC also operates MG production facilities in Nanjing and Ningde, with models like the MG5 manufactured in Nanjing. They sell well globally, especially their EVs which are particularly popular in countries like the UK and France - a friend rented an MG EV during a UK trip. One advantage of owning this brand is the extensive service network, since being domestically produced means parts are readily available.
