Pune: New entrant MG (Morris Garages) Motor, the British car brand owned by the Chinese biggest automaker SAIC Motor, on Wednesday said it would launch in December its global full-electric SUV— the MG EZS manufactured at its factory in Gujarat.

The carmaker, on World Environment Day, released a video of the first prototype being produced at its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Halol in Gujarat.

The MG EZS was first revealed at the Guangzhou Motor Show 2018 in China last November. Then on April 10, 2019, the carmaker officially had the global reveal in London.

The company says that with a full-sized boot and room for five, "the MG EZS is the perfect car for people who want to go electric but also need the space and practicality of a compact SUV."

At present the company is testing a few MG EZS SUVs in extreme climatic conditions across India.

"The MG EZS, as one of the first locally produced global EVs, will mark a new chapter in environment-friendly mobility in India," Rajeev Chaba, President and Managing Director at MG Motor India.

"We are delighted to be one of the first carmakers to enter this space in India. We aim to bring accessible electric motoring to the customers in India upon its introduction by the end of this year," he said.
