From DW REV – Cars & Mobility.

Is MG a British classic, a Chinese success story… or something entirely new? Once born in Oxford and deeply woven into British car culture, MG is now owned by China’s state-owned giant SAIC Motor and has reinvented itself as one of Europe’s most successful electric car brands.
MG’s remarkable transformation: from affordable sports cars and racing legends to Chinese-led electrification, global design teams, and cutting-edge EV technology. Along the way, designers, historians, and MG enthusiasts from Britain, Europe, the U.S., and China debate what happens when heritage meets globalization.
What does MG’s journey tell us about the future of Europe’s car industry, electrification, and cross-border cooperation? And can a brand survive, or thrive even, when its identity is no longer tied to one nation? Share your thoughts in the comments and subscribe to REV for more global mobility stories.
