Now under the custodianship of Chinese automotive giant SAIC Motor, MG has, following an eight-year absence, made its return to the local market.
Those with a keen eye may have noticed MG’s branding outside several dealerships in South Africa, with some possibly taking a second glance to confirm they have, indeed, just seen the British marque’s iconic octagon emblem above a local showroom floor.
“SAIC’s infrastructure and resources are dedicated to ensuring local stability, from comprehensive service and support networks to a firm investment in local job creation and partnerships. Our goal is to make MG a reliable presence in South Africa and provide our customers with peace of mind, knowing that they can count on MG for years to come.”
