MG: The Revival of a Classic Brand

Hey there! So, have you ever heard of MG? It’s a car brand that has made a comeback in Europe after disappearing for a while. But let’s go back in time to the 1920s in England to understand its story. MG stands for Morris Garages, which was founded by William Morris, a bicycle mechanic turned car enthusiast. He started a motor shop in Oxford in 1910 and soon ventured into making cars. To help him with this new venture, he brought on Cecil Kimber as a commercial director. Kimber, who had experience with other car brands and had a passion for sports cars, worked his magic on the mechanics and design of Morris cars. And voila, the first MG model, the MG Old Number One, was born in 1925. Fast forward to today, MG is now owned by the Chinese consortium SAIC. They’ve made a name for themselves by focusing on technologically advanced and electric cars. Their range includes models like the MG ZS, MG HS, MG 4, MG 5, and the flagship MG Marvel R. These cars have been gaining popularity in Europe, with the MG ZS even becoming the best-selling car in Spain for a couple of months. So, if you’re in the market for a stylish and eco-friendly ride, you might want to check out what MG has to offer. They’ve definitely come a long way since their early days in Oxford.
