MG enters electric era
MG has entered a new era in its rich history by delivering its first fully electric vehicle.
The first-ever customer delivery took place at Bushey Heath Garage, Bushey, Hertfordshire, where Richard Jackson received the keys to his new ZS EV Exclusive. The milestone handover also marks the start of customer deliveries for ZS EV across MG’s 100-strong dealer network.
Since ZS EV was launched in July, MG has sold 2,000 units in the first 60 days of orderbooks opening.
Jonathan O’Donoghue, managing director at Bushey Heath Garage, said, ‘We are thrilled to be able to hand the keys to Mr Jackson’s new ZS EV. We pride ourselves on offering the very best customer service and our upgraded on-site charging facilities means that Mr Jackson can utilise our local infrastructure when he requires it. We’re glad to be part of history delivering the first-ever all-electric MG car and judging by the customer interest already, there are many more who will be making the switch to electric with MG soon.’
Daniel Gregorious, head of sales and marketing, MG Motor UK, said, ‘Everyone at MG would firstly like to welcome Mr Jackson to the MG family and also on becoming the first MG ZS EV owner in the UK. This is a tremendous occasion for the MG brand as it represents another big milestone in our mid-term growth plan. We’ve made big investments in new technology and we’re proud to be bringing affordable zero emissions motoring to UK car buyers.’
