MG Motor continues to break records with nearly a third of all sales coming from pure electric models

MG Motor has taken a market share of over 1.5% for the fourth month this year as the brand continues its incredible growth.

 

The company achieved 2,453 registrations in May 2021, giving it a share of 1.57%. Its total sales in 2021 amounted to 10,760 at month end, a greater number than it sold in the whole of 2018. In addition, more than three in 10 MGs sold (31.7%) were pure electric against an overall market penetration of 7.5% for BEVs across all brands.

 

Guy Pigounakis, MG’s Commercial Director, said: “So far in 2021, we’ve seen an incredible sales performance from our dealer network, which itself is growing at quite a rate. As we emerge from the stricter part of lockdown, it’s great to see dealerships so busy and a strong appetite for our models from the British car-buying public.
