What MG Sales does

MG Sales (Thailand) Co., Ltd. is the authorized distributor and manufacturer of MG-branded vehicles in Thailand, operating as a privately held joint venture between SAIC Motor Corporation Limited (the world's 7th largest automaker) and CP Company Limited (Charoen Pokphand Group). The company was established in 2014 to bring the 90-year-old British MG brand to the Thai market and has since built an 18-model lineup spanning fully electric vehicles (EVs), hybrid (HEV), plug-in hybrid (PHEV), and traditional petrol powertrains, priced from 529,900 THB (MG Urban entry EV) to 2,499,000 THB (MG Cyberster electric roadster). MG's technology stack includes proprietary MG HYBRID+ hybrid architecture, 800V SiC platforms supporting up to 396 kW DC fast charging (10-80% in 18 minutes), KERS regenerative braking, intelligent four-wheel steering, and lithium-ion battery systems with liquid cooling.

The business operates a vertically integrated model combining local manufacturing with a wide dealer and service network. A 100,000-unit-per-year factory at the Hemaraj Eastern Seaboard Industrial Estate in Chonburi positions Thailand as the ASEAN hub for right-hand drive MG vehicle production and export, while 170+ authorized showrooms and 140+ service centers, complemented by 129+ MG Super Charge DC fast-charging stations spaced roughly every 150 km, deliver nationwide distribution and after-sales coverage. Revenue derives primarily from one-time vehicle sales (across individual consumer, family, and eco-conscious buyer segments), with a dedicated MG Fleet Sale program serving corporate fleet buyers, and a recurring after-sales stream from service, parts, and warranty programs that include a lifetime warranty on EV powertrain components and a 10-year unlimited mileage warranty on hybrid batteries. The company has reached 100,000+ cumulative units sold and a stated ambition of Top 5 in the Thai automotive market.
