According to a recent press release from MG Motor UK, the brand has reached a significant milestone in 2025, achieving more than 300,000 vehicle sales across the United Kingdom and Europe for the first time. This represents a notable increase compared with the previous year and comes amid broader shifts in customer demand toward hybrid and electric vehicles.
A New Annual Sales Benchmark
In December 2025, MG Motor confirmed that annual sales across the UK and European markets exceeded 300,000 units. The figure reflects an almost 30 percent uplift compared with 2024, when around 233,000 vehicles were sold. This marks the brand’s strongest full-year performance in the region to date.
Brand representatives highlighted that the expanded line-up of hybrid and electrified models was a key contributor to this result. In particular, MG’s Hybrid+ range, including models such as the MG HS SUV, recorded substantially higher customer demand throughout the year.
Growth Across Electrified and Hybrid Models
Sales of MG’s hybrid vehicles saw particularly sharp increases in 2025. Across pan-European markets, combined hybrid unit sales approached 137,000 vehicles for the year, up by nearly 300 percent compared with 2024. At the same time, the MG ZS model range recorded growth of approximately 32 percent across the same period, underscoring its appeal in the crossover segment.
While electrified models played an important role, the broader product line-up also supported overall growth. Hybrid powertrains and accessible technologies helped the brand appeal to a broad set of buyers, especially those transitioning from traditional combustion vehicles to more efficient alternatives.
Expanded Offerings and Market Presence
Over the course of 2025, MG continued to add new products and expand its market footprint. The MGS5 SUV and the technology-focused MG IM range, including models like the IM5 and IM6, were rolled out in several European countries, further extending customer choice. Additionally, the MGS6, a larger and more technology-rich SUV, was introduced in the final quarter of the year, reinforcing the brand’s presence in the growing electric segment.
MG’s distribution network also expanded, with the brand active in more than 30 European markets and partnering with around 1,300 retail outlets across the region. In the UK alone, MG maintains over 150 retailers and has invested in parts and logistics infrastructure to support its expanding customer base.
What This Means for MG and the Market
Reaching over 300,000 sales in a single year is a meaningful indicator of MG’s momentum in Europe. It reflects not only growing customer interest in the brand’s diverse powertrain options but also broader trends in the automotive market, where hybrid and electric vehicles are gaining a larger share of new-car registrations.
While hybrid models helped drive much of the recent growth, the introduction of more dedicated electric vehicles positions the brand to continue participating in the transition toward electrification, even as competition intensifies across the European landscape.
