    [SINGAPORE] Car brand MG Motor hopes to double its South-east Asia sales to 100,000 cars over the next three years, up from its 2024 total of around 50,000.

    This is part of its push to raise its total sales to 870,000 in 2025 from around 770,000 in 2024.

    MG originated in Britain, but has been owned by state-owned China carmaker SAIC Motor since 2007.
