MG Motor, the Chinese automaker, is expanding into Latin America by establishing a manufacturing plant and R&D hub in Mexico. This strategic move will help the brand produce vehicles and market intelligence tailored for the Latin American market. With a presence in Mexico already, this investment strengthens MG Motor’s commitment to the region and positions Mexico as a key hub for growth. This development also raises potential for future exports to the U.S., potentially bypassing existing tariffs on Chinese EV imports. https://lnkd.in/gPJWkez9 #MGMotor #Mexico #AutomotiveIndustry #EV #HybridVehicles #LatinAmerica #R&D #Manufacturing #ChinaAutomotive #ElectricVehicles #AutoIndustry #CleanEnergy #SAICMotor #MexicoInvestment #USMarket #Tariffs #BEV #HEV #AutomotiveExpansion #FutureMobility
