JSW MG Motor India reported domestic wholesales of 6,048 units in May 2026. The company reported a year-on-year (YoY) decline of 4.06% compared to 6,304 units sold in May 2025. Despite the annual decline, sales remained largely stable on a month-on-month basis, a slight improvement compared to April 2026.
mg sales may 2026
According to the latest sales data, MG shipped 6,048 vehicles in May 2026, 256 units less than the same month last year. The decline comes amid continued challenges facing the automotive industry, including rising commodity costs, higher freight expenses and disruptions in global supply chains linked to geopolitical tensions in West Asia.
However, on month-on-month basis MG recorded a slight improvement. Sales increased from 6,018 units in April 2026 to 6,048 units in May 2026, i.e. a marginal increase of 0.50% and an increase of 30 units. MG sales are being supported by a mix of ICE and electric vehicles. The company’s SUV lineup currently includes the Astor, Hector and Gloster, while its electric portfolio includes the Comet EV, ZS EV and Windsor EV. The Windsor EV has emerged as one of the strongest contributors to the brand’s EV sales and remains one of the best-selling electric cars in the country.
Magister flagship SUV launched
A major development during the month was the commencement of dealership dispatches of the newly launched MG Magister. Positioned as the brand’s flagship SUV in India, the Magister is offered in both 6-seat and 7-seat configurations. Prices start at Rs 40.99 lakh (ex-showroom) for the 4×2 automatic top trim and go up to Rs 44.99 lakh (ex-showroom) for the 4×4 automatic top trim.
The SUV targets buyers looking for a premium full-size SUV with a focus on space, comfort and long-distance traveling capability. With customer deliveries picking up pace in the coming months, the Magister could provide additional growth to MG’s overall volumes and help strengthen its presence in the premium SUV segment.
More new products planned
Looking to the future, JSW MG Motor India is preparing to further expand its portfolio with new electrified offerings. The company is expected to introduce the iM6 premium electric SUV, followed by a plug-in hybrid SUV based on the Starlight 560. As MG continues to strengthen its EV and premium SUV lineup, the upcoming launches will play a key role in growth amid increasing competition in both the segments.
