MG’s Racing Legacy
In 1924, MG was established as Morris Garages under the leadership of British motoring pioneer, William Morris. It was General Manager Cecil Kimber, who envisioned the development of faster automobiles with sportier aesthetics. By 1930, MG introduced its inaugural model, the 14/28 Super Sports, based on the Morris Oxford platform but featuring a sleek two-seater body capable of reaching speeds up to 65mph. In 1931, MG made history with the MG EX120, also called ‘The Magic Midget’, setting a remarkable land speed record for 750cc cars by achieving a top speed of 103.13mph.About MG Motor India
Founded in the UK in 1924, Morris Garages vehicles were world-famous for their sports cars, roadsters, and cabriolet series. MG vehicles were much sought after by celebrities, including British Prime Ministers and even the British Royal Family, for their styling, elegance, and spirited performance. The MG Car Club, set up in 1930 at Abingdon in the UK, has thousands of loyal fans, making it one of the world’s largest clubs for a car brand. MG has evolved into a modern, futuristic, and innovative brand over the last 100 years. MG Motor India’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Halol, Gujarat, has an annual production capacity of 1,00,000 plus vehicles and 6,000 direct and indirect employees.
