MG MOTORS LAUNCH IN INDIA

MG Motor is a UK-based carmaker that has a rich heritage and is known in India for its iconic vintage cars. It first came into existence in the 1920s and managed to create a cult following for its sportscars. MG (Morris Garages) was sold to Morris Motors in 1935, and was subsequently absorbed into the British Motor Corporation Limited in 1952. After multiple changes in ownerships, the MG brand was bought by China-based Nanjing Automobile in 2005, and was later merged into SAIC Motor Corporation Limited. 


MG Motor’s plans for entering the Indian market were revealed in July 2017, when SAIC acquired General Motors' factory in Halol, Gujarat. The company now plans to bring in a range of cars to the Indian market by 2019, starting with a midsize SUV.MG offers 0 car available for sale in India. Upcoming MG Cars that are expected to launch in 2018/2019 include Baojun 530, RX5, GS, ERX5.




MG Motor India has begun showcasing its line-up of cars and SUVs across the county from December 14, 2018. The new entrant in the Indian market is also set to launch its first SUV in early 2019.



The 10-city display tour began on December 14, 2018, in Gurgaon and will proceed to Noida, Chandigarh, Mumbai, Pune, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad and Kolkata before ending on March 17, 2019, in Delhi.


The model showcase will not include the brand's first product for India which is still undergoing road testing. The upcoming B-segment MG SUV will come with two BS-VI-complaint engine options – a 1.5-litre, direct-injection turbo-petrol mill and an FCA-sourced 2.0-litre, turbo-diesel motor.


The MG SUV will initially only be sold as a five-seater in India and will measure around 4,655mm in length, 1,835mm in width, and 1,760mm in height. It is also expected to be priced aggressively, thanks to heavy localisation of parts.
