China breathes new life into iconic British MG brand

Original: The Chinese revival of the iconic MG brand

MG, the British sports car brand founded in 1924, has been revived under Chinese ownership and is now one of the fastest-growing car brands in Europe and other markets. Chinese automaker SAIC, which acquired MG, is selling electric and petrol models worldwide, prompting debate about the legacy of a once-iconic British marque now effectively becoming a Chinese export success story.

Why now: MG's rapid growth as a Chinese-owned brand in global car markets has renewed attention on the fate of the famous British nameplate.
