MG achieved its strongest June sales result ever, selling 10,395 cars, following record-breaking sales in April and May. This gives MG its highest year-to-date result for the first half of the year, rising to 8th place in the overall sales charts.

Record-Breaking Start to the Year
This record-breaking sales performance represents a growth of +14.4% – comfortably outperforming the wider market which has grown by 9.2% over the same period.

Private Retail sales have been particularly strong with a rise of 24% YTD, more than double the market average of 11%. propelling MG to 6th place in the overall sales charts for Private Retail sales.

Electrification Driving Growth
Electrification remains at the heart of MG’s success, with 91% of sales now having an electrified powertrain – Hybrid, Plug-in Hybrid and fully electric (BEV) models.

MG’s BEV sales have grown by 74% so far this year, outperforming the wider BEV market growth of 27%. This surge has been driven by the brand’s expanding and comprehensive range of electric vehicles launched over the past two years.

The multi-award-winning MG HS Plug-in Hybrid has been a standout performer, with sales up 67% year-on-year, making it the UK’s 5th best-selling PHEV.

MG has also cemented its position as the UK’s 2nd best-selling manufacturer for hybrid vehicles, with both the MG ZS and MG HS ranking among the top five best-selling hybrid vehicles in the UK year-to-date.
