The company reported total wholesale sales of 6,019 units in November 2024, reflecting a 20% year-on-year (YoY) growth compared to November 2023. MG’s New Energy Vehicle (NEV) portfolio contributed 70% to these impressive sales figures, underscoring its strong position in India’s rapidly growing EV market.
