JSW MG Motor India, one of the leading passenger vehicles manufacturers in the country, has announced that its recently launched MG Windsor electric SUV has crossed 15,000 production milestone.

Launched in September 2024, the company calls Windsor a CUV (crossover utility vehicle) and consecutively for the last four months in a row – October 2024 – January 2025.

Biju Balendran, Deputy Managing Director, JSW MG Motor India, said, “We are delighted with the response that the MG Windsor has been receiving and are grateful to our customers who have helped us cross the 15,000-unit production milestone. The CUV has been widely accepted by car buyers for its overall pricing and packaging, and for offering a luxurious business-class experience to customers. Smart initiatives such as BaaS, the buyback program, and a lifetime warranty, have all boosted consumer confidence in EVs. As we diversify our portfolio, we remain committed to bringing quality products to our customers at a faster rate.”

Furthermore, the company is also increasing production capacity at Halol plant in Gujarat to meet the growing demand for Windsor.

“Additionally, we are undertaking certain facility modifications to ensure readiness for new products under MG Select which is due for launch in the first half of this year. Hence, we anticipate a production slowdown during the month of February, which may temporarily affect our wholesales during this period”, added Balendran.

The company is set to launch the recently showcased MG Cyberster and MG M9 under MG Select brand channel.
