MG has announced that European manufacturing will restart at a new facility in Galicia, Spain. The €200 million investment represents a significant milestone in MG’s long-term commitment to the European market and the advancement of its ‘In Europe, For Europe’ strategy.
The new facility is expected to create over 2,000 jobs across Europe, establishing a strategic hub for MG’s next phase of growth. Production is slated to begin in 2028, with an estimated annual capacity of up to 120,000 vehicles.
The site will integrate vehicle research and development, advanced manufacturing, core component supply, and intelligent logistics operations, forming a fully connected, end-to-end industrial ecosystem. This platform is set to significantly expand localized production and sourcing, enhancing the resilience, responsiveness, and agility of MG’s European supply chain.
In parallel, MG plans to deepen collaboration with leading European technology partners, research institutions, and local suppliers to drive innovation in next-generation battery technology, intelligent mobility systems, and clean energy solutions.
The announcement arrives at a pivotal moment for the European automotive industry, as the EU’s 2035 zero-emission targets accelerate the shift toward electrified mobility. Through localized manufacturing, sustained investment in R&D, and a customer-centric approach to innovation, MG is reinforcing its commitment to Europe and expanding access to advanced mobility solutions for consumers across the region.
MG continues to introduce world-class technologies, including the first mass-produced SolidCore semi-solid-state battery and a class-leading Hybrid+ and Plug-in Hybrid technology portfolio. These advancements underscore MG’s expanding role in shaping sustainable, intelligent, and future-focused mobility in Europe.
MG’s ongoing investment builds on strong momentum in the region. Earlier this year, the company celebrated the delivery of its one-millionth vehicle in the European market. Since re-entering the UK in 2011, MG has emerged as one of Europe’s fastest-growing automotive brands, supported by a network of more than 1,300 dealer partners across 34 markets. More recently, MG’s parent group marked the delivery of its 100-millionth global customer vehicle, highlighting its scale and international reach.
In recent months, MG has significantly expanded its product portfolio by introducing several key models, including the all-new MG4 EV Urban and the MGS9 Plug-in Hybrid, the brand’s first seven-seater SUV featuring premium versatility and spacious three-row seating. Building on a robust product rollout over the past year, MG has also launched the MGS5 EV, MGS6 EV, and MG HS Hybrid+, further strengthening its position in the electric and hybrid vehicle segments. Leading MG’s innovation journey, the MG Cyberster continues to redefine electric performance, blending the brand’s sporting heritage and iconic roadster design with advanced EV technology.
William Wang, Managing Director of MG UK and Europe, stated, “From technological innovation to the localisation of manufacturing and R&D across Europe, supported by a truly global product line-up, MG continues to push the boundaries of what is possible—making advanced technology and sustainable mobility accessible to more people than ever before.”
Wang added, “Through our ‘In Europe, For Europe’ strategy, we are not simply responding to the future of mobility—we are helping define it. By investing in local capabilities, strengthening our European footprint and fostering a more competitive automotive ecosystem, we are accelerating Europe’s journey towards a cleaner, smarter and more sustainable mobility future.”
