MG Motor UK’s initiative complements the government’s Electric Car Grant, emphasizing the environmental and economic benefits of EVs. The £1,500 grant applies to private purchases of the award-winning MG4 EV and MG5 EV, models praised for their affordability and performance. This offer is separate from incentives provided by MG’s 155 UK dealer partners, ensuring customers receive maximum value. By combining these efforts, MG aims to maintain its reputation for offering some of the best-value battery electric vehicles in the UK.

Guy Pigounakis, Commercial Director at MG Motor UK, highlighted the company’s dedication to the EV sector. “MG has been a key contributor to the EV sector, consistently recognizing the economic and environmental benefits of introducing a wide range of affordable, electric-only models,” he said. He also expressed MG’s intent to collaborate with the government to further boost EV sales, reinforcing the brand’s proactive stance in the transition to sustainable motoring.

MG’s strong market performance supports its ambitious goals. In 2024, the company achieved a 4.18% market share in the UK, ranking as the 10th best-selling automotive brand. Its 156-dealer network and a comprehensive 7-year/80,000-mile warranty provide robust support for customers. Additionally, MG’s West Midlands engineering team and Marylebone Advanced Design Studio play pivotal roles in developing and styling new models, including the innovative Cyberster.

For those interested in exploring MG’s offerings, detailed information about the grant, vehicle specifications, and high-resolution imagery is available at www.mg.co.uk and www.mg.co.uk/media-centre. This initiative positions MG as a frontrunner in making electric motoring accessible, aligning with the UK’s broader environmental objectives and reinforcing its legacy as a beloved automotive brand since its founding in 1924.
