MG launched their first ever SUV in India a couple of months ago and received humongous response from customers across the country. so huge that they had to actually stop taking bookings from the customers. Ever since the booking had started, MG had received more than 28,000 bookings which was way more than the production capacity of the manufacturing plant. The good news now is that MG is planning to resume bookings in October, just ahead of the festive season buying of Diwali.
Speaking to media, Rajeev Chaba, President & MD- MG Motor India said,
We cannot and don’t want to reopen the bookings till the time we have a clear idea of deliveries. So first we want to take care of our existing customers who have already booked and then we want to resume bookings. So, my guess is within October we should reopen the bookings.
MG has also come up with a solution where prospective buyers are being added to a waiting list without taking bookings. Idea is to convert these waiting lists into bookings whenever they resume booking in future. One of the main priorities in front MG Motors is to increase the production and not disappoint customers.
MG motor has so far delivered 2000 units and is aiming to deliver 3000 units in September. MG is also looking to import a bunch of parts, and hiring one more batch for the second shift so that they can ramp up the production and start taking bookings for the second batch from October itself.
