Gurugram: JSW MG Motor India has reported a strong close to FY26, registering a 19% year-on-year growth in March sales. The company dispatched 6,528 wholesale units, signaling steady demand across both its traditional ICE lineup and the fast-growing New Energy Vehicle (NEV) portfolio.
In an industry where momentum can shift faster than a turbo spool, MG seems to have kept its foot firmly on the accelerator. The growth reflects a balanced performance across segments, with electric mobility and connected car tech continuing to gain traction among Indian buyers.
However, the celebration comes with a small caveat—prices are heading north. Starting April 1, 2026, MG has announced a price increase of up to 2% across its standard portfolio, citing rising input costs. Meanwhile, its premium MG SELECT range will see a sharper hike of up to 7%, impacting halo models like the MG Cyberster and MG M9.
So yes, if you were planning to bring home that shiny MG, March might have been the perfect time—April, not so much (unless your wallet enjoys cardio).
The company’s consistent growth aligns with its broader strategy of blending innovation with accessibility. Backed by parent companies SAIC Motor and JSW Group, the joint venture has been actively expanding its footprint in India since its formation in 2023.
At the heart of MG’s India operations lies its Halol manufacturing facility in Gujarat, which boasts an annual production capacity exceeding 1 lakh units and supports thousands of jobs directly and indirectly. The brand continues to push its vision of CASE mobility—Connected, Autonomous, Shared, and Electric, introducing segment-first features and tech-forward vehicles.
From launching India’s first Internet SUV to democratizing EVs with models like the ZS EV and Comet, MG has built a reputation for being slightly ahead of the curve—sometimes even before the curve knows where it’s going.
Globally, the legacy of Morris Garages dates back to 1924 in the UK, with a rich history of producing iconic sports cars and roadsters. Today, that heritage blends with modern technology, giving MG a unique positioning in India’s evolving automotive landscape.
As FY27 begins, MG’s growth story appears intact—but with rising costs nudging prices upward, the real test will be whether customers continue to say, “More Power to You,” or quietly whisper, “More Discounts, Please.”
