MG hits new high
MG Motor is celebrating its best month for sales since the company relaunched eight years ago.
According to figures released by The Society of Motor Manufacturers & Traders (SMMT), MG Motor registered a total of 1,005 vehicles during September. That represents a 97% year-on-year increase for the month.
For the year to date, MG has achieved a 34% increase in registrations over 2015 figures.
Matthew Cheyne, head of sales and marketing at MG Motor UK, said, ‘Breaking the 1,000 vehicle registration figure for September is a significant achievement. During 2016, our figures have continued to rise, reflecting unprecedented demand and customer affinity towards the brand.
‘The continued success of MG in the UK is not only testament to the performance and quality of our model range – which includes the family-favourite GS SUV and MG3 supermini – but also the continued growth of our dealer network.
‘Without the hard work, dedication and support of each MG dealer in the UK, we couldn’t have achieved such impressive registration results. As such, I wish to personally extend my thanks to them for a record-breaking month.
‘We’re delighted with our performance so far in 2016 and have surpassed our total year 2015 sales already. We look forward to carrying this on in Q4 as we continue to offer our customers competitive, affordable and exciting vehicles.’
