"Orders at IIMS 2025 reached 400 units. 80 percent were BEVs, ranging from the MG 4 EV and MG ZS EV," said He Guowei, Chief Executive Officer of MG Motor Indonesia, during a media Iftar event in Jakarta (04/03).

As one of the manufacturers marketing electric cars, MG is quite serious about showing its commitment in the country's automotive market.

It was said that the MG 4 EV dominated orders, accounting for up to 60 percent of the total achievement during IIMS 2025. Meanwhile, the MG ZS EV only received 20 percent of the overall orders.

The demand for MG electric cars in Indonesia is quite high. They revealed they are ready to introduce more new models.

Furthermore, he also sees the potential for hybrid cars in the country. This is due to the subsidies provided by the government.

"I also heard the three percent (incentive) is very significant, especially for us. If we can get the (subsidy), it will help lower the price and help consumers," explained He Guowei.

MG Motor Indonesia itself already has a factory in the country. The facility under the SAIC banner will be utilized for local assembly.
