British car company MG was founded in 1924, best known for popular sports cars such as the MGA and MGB. After decades of turbulence moving between the likes of British Leyland and the Rover Group, MG was bought out by Chinese giant SAIC Motors. With a focus on value and simplicity, it’s once again become one of the most admired brands around - and its electric cars are hugely popular.
Key highlights of MG Motor UK
MG is, of course, famous for building iconic two-seater sports cars for many decades. In its latter years as a British company it gave Rover models a sporting edge, but under Chinese ownership MG pivoted entirely.
Its range of great value small cars and family SUVs quickly built up sales, but it wasn’t until it embraced the electric future that buyers really stood up and took notice. Offering competitive models for significantly less money than established electric brands, MG has changed the game.
