MG makes a comeback thanks to hybrids

After suffering a brutal setback with the end of various European aids, MG Motor seems to have found its second wind.

By crossing the symbolic milestone of 300,000 annual sales, MG confirms that the transition to hybrid and electric is no longer just a strategic choice, but a real growth lever.

The recovery of the Sino-British manufacturer is not a matter of chance. While many foreign players struggle to establish themselves in the European market, the brand has managed to combine pragmatism and innovation. Its Hybrid+ models, notably the EHS SUV, have seen unexpected success, propelling the brand’s hybrid sales to nearly 137,000 units in one year. This represents an increase of nearly 300%, highlighting the relevance of a targeted hybrid approach capable of appealing to both technology enthusiasts and budget-conscious drivers.

A strategy to reinvent

But MG is not stopping there. The electric offensive, discreet yet steady, is starting to bear fruit. The MGS5 EV and the MG IM range have been introduced in several European markets, and the upcoming MGS6 EV promises to extend this momentum in 2026, combining practicality, space, and accessible technologies. These initiatives reflect a clear vision: to not only follow trends but to shape a coherent offering tailored to the expectations of an increasingly demanding European clientele.

Behind these figures, we also observe a strengthened territorial network: MG is now present in 34 countries with 1,300 sales and service points, and France alone has nearly 200 active distributors. Optimized logistics, supported by a new spare parts warehouse, bolsters the brand’s rise.
