29/08/2008 04:46. Shanghai Automotive plans to introduce four new MG models to the UK
market starting next year. The company just relaunched production
of the MG TF with a limited edition run of 500 vehicles, but its plans to bring MG to the USA have fallen through. All four models will be built at Longbridge,
which is currently having its production capacity expanded with new
staff and equipment to handle the task. Shanghai (which merged with
Nanjing last year) claims this assures the future of the
historically troubled facility. But what new models is MG bringing
to market? Will the just be based on sub-par Chinese vehicles? Can
MG really find sales success?
The first new car will be a TF replacement better equipped (ie not
dating from 1995) to compete with the Mazda MX-5. Expect it late
next year. That... //
