Bangkok – 31 March 2022 – SAIC Motor-CP and MG Sales (Thailand), the manufacturer and distributor of MG cars in Thailand, said the NEW MG ZS EV and MG EP have increasingly received positive feedbacks after their price adjustment with a state subsidy of around 227,000 - 246,000 baht as part of the government’s EV incentive campaign. Only a week after the official price announcement at the 43rd Bangkok International Motor Show, the company has seen the booking volume of 3,000 units and expects to start delivering cars to customers from May onwards

Mr. Pongsak Lertruedeewattanavong, Vice President of MG Sales (Thailand) Company Limited, said that “The announcement of the new prices of MG ZS EV and MG EP following the government’s EV promotion campaign has evidently resulted in the growth of the EV market as seen from an increasing number of customers who inquire about and book EV models. Only a week after the official price announcement at the 43rd Bangkok International Motor Show, MG has seen the booking volume of 3,000 units. According to our operational plan, we will start the delivery of both EV models to customers from May onwards. However, a huge amount of bookings could also mean customers who book now are likely to receive the cars in the last quarter of this year.”

“The company feels grateful for all Thai customers who put their trust in MG. Also we would like to thank the Thai government who implements an incentive campaign to allow Thai people to have a better access of electric vehicles. As a pioneer in electric vehicles in Thailand, MG is ready to move Thailand forward towards the Low Carbon Society in line with the government’s policy to create a strong foundation for the use of electric vehicles in the country. The company will also continue to bring Thailand’s automotive industry to the international level.”
